    description: Use Honeywell Forge dashboards, exports, and connected-asset inventory APIs to track
      asset count, ingestion volume, and module utilization. Reconcile against the annual entitlement.
  - name: Allocation
    description: Allocate Forge spend by site, building, plant, or tail number using the asset hierarchy
      that drives the contract's per-asset billing line.
  - name: Optimization
    description: Levers are deactivating unused assets / sites at renewal, consolidating Forge modules
      to bundle pricing, and tuning data ingestion intervals to stay within the entitlement tier.
  - name: Accountability
    description: Site / facility owners are accountable for their connected-asset footprint; central
      IT / OT owns the master agreement and renewal calendar.
