From first schedule to better solution

The first schedule does not need to be perfect. It should prove that the foundation data can create a solution and show which fields limit quality.

Once Caire has run a first solution, missing data becomes concrete: districts, designated caregivers, shifts, cost assumptions, and visit timing appear as recommendations.

Start in onboarding and fill only blocking foundation data. Then create a first planning period, generate visits and shifts, and run a solution even if readiness is incomplete.

After the data update, at least one important metric should move in the right direction: fewer unassigned visits, higher paid-shift efficiency, less unexplained wait or idle, better continuity, or lower travel/cost.
