An Internal Copilot That Actually Knows the Company's Systems

The problem

A logistics company's operations staff regularly pinged a small internal ops team with questions that required checking multiple internal systems — shipment status, vendor contracts, warehouse capacity — creating a bottleneck around a handful of people who held that institutional knowledge.

What we built

An internal copilot connected directly to the company's six core operational systems via API, able to answer natural-language questions ('what's the current capacity at the east warehouse,' 'which vendor contract covers this SKU') and, where appropriate, file the follow-up action itself — like opening a ticket or updating a status field.

Why direct integration mattered

Rather than a generic chatbot trained on static documentation, the copilot queries live system state at answer time, so responses reflect what's actually true right now, not what was true when a wiki page was last updated.

The result

Internal support ticket volume for routine operational questions dropped roughly 35% within two months of rollout, freeing the ops team's institutional-knowledge holders to focus on the exceptions that actually need their judgment.
