Workflow Engine: Flexible Coordination for Modern Operations

2025-11-05

Define your processes the way you understand your business

Workflow Engine coordinates operational processes at any scale—from single device actions to multi-device orchestration—with consistent reliability and traceability.

What It Does

The Workflow Engine handles coordination whether you're managing state changes within one device, orchestrating multiple devices together, or coordinating across different operational workflows.

Define your processes the way you understand your business. Separate workflows for different operational domains—then coordinate them when needed. One engine, organized however makes sense for your operations.

What This Gives You

Coordination That Matches Your Operations

Organize workflows by operational domain—customer requests, equipment operations, resource management—with each able to trigger or coordinate with others when needed.

Whether integrating third-party equipment or manufacturing with Queue0 pre-installed, operations teams configure workflows themselves. No months-long integration projects, no system integrator required.

Consistent Reliability Across Levels

Whether coordinating within a device, between devices, or across workflows, you get the same execution model:

  • Every step recorded with causal relationships
  • Failures and retries tracked automatically
  • Complete audit trail from trigger to completion

A workflow invoking a device action has the same reliability guarantees as a workflow triggering another workflow. The coordination layer doesn't change based on what you're coordinating.

Complete Operational Transparency

Every workflow execution creates a complete record—which steps ran, what data passed between them, how conditions evaluated, what triggered what.

When workflows fail or produce unexpected results, you don't reconstruct from scattered logs. You have exactly what happened and why. This matters for debugging, compliance audits, and understanding operational patterns.

How We Use This

We built the Workflow Engine to handle operational personality—the reality that no two sites operate identically, even when using the same equipment. Each location develops unique coordination patterns based on local regulations, team structures, and business requirements.

The Workflow Engine uses the same ledger-based execution model as Twin Sync—every workflow run creates structured, causal records. This provides complete operational transparency and helps our agents build accurate context for decision support.

We run our own operational processes on this engine. They depend on the same flexibility and reliability.

You can use the Workflow Engine standalone, or combine it with Queue0's agents to evolve exception handling into reliable protocols.
