# NVIDIA Factory Operations Blueprint (FOX)

NVIDIA released the Factory Operations Blueprint (FOX), a reference architecture that adds a factory manager agent to existing factory systems and has it coordinate specialist agents for inspection, root-cause analysis and fleet management. Previously, factory teams had to gather evidence across systems, consult specialists and coordinate the next step, which took substantial time and manual querying. FOX's SMT reference example follows an AOI alert through secondary inspection, rework transport in a digital twin and analysis of reflow oven readings, then returns a PDF report with source records and recommended actions.
