Alert to SAR

Monitoring and screening produce alert queues. Cadre maps the work from triage through investigation and SAR-package preparation, with Conductor assigning specialists and the BSA officer retaining the filing decision.

Orchestration

Case orchestration
Cadre pack · Conductor

Plans a supplied flagged case across triage, investigation, and package preparation, choosing the next step from each specialist result and retaining the path for review.

  • hands the case to Alert triage
  • hands the case to Case investigation
  • hands the case to SAR package preparation

Detect

Transaction monitoring
Bank system

Transaction-monitoring scenario outputs enter the alert queue for triage.

Payment screening
Bank system

Name-screening hits enter sanctions disposition with the supplied OFAC SDN evidence.

Triage & disposition

Alert triage
Cadre pack · Sift

Front-line disposition of a monitoring-alert queue — close with a note, or escalate with reason codes.

efficientQueue triage is volume work; the frontier stays reserved for what escalates.

Sanctions disposition
Cadre pack · Cerberus

Clears, blocks, or escalates sanctions name-match hits from the supplied SDN evidence.

KYC / CDD refresh
Open work

Pull refreshed customer due diligence into the case file when triage escalates. Open work. No Cadre blueprint is assigned to this step yet.

314(b) sharing
Open work

Inter-institution information requests on escalated cases. Open work. No Cadre blueprint is assigned to this step yet.

Investigate

Case investigation
Cadre pack · Bloodhound

Builds the investigation packet on escalated cases and recommends SAR / no-SAR, handing the sanctions screen to Cerberus as a focused specialist.

frontierCross-source investigation is the deep-reasoning seat in this process.

  • hands the case to Sanctions disposition

File & review

SAR package preparation
Cadre pack · Scribe

Drafts the SAR from the packet, validates completeness, and routes the package for accountable approval.

sovereignSAR packages are confidential by statute; drafting never leaves the boundary.

Narrative quality
Cadre pack · Redliner

Drafts from the investigation packet, checks the result against a completeness rubric, and revises without adding unsupported facts.

BSA officer
Human checkpoint

Escalated cases and filing decisions land here — the accountable approval point illustrated by Aarvion policy.

FinCEN e-filing
Bank system

The external submission rail used after accountable approval; no Cadre blueprint owns this step.

Tune

Scenario tuning
Cadre pack · Calibrate

Proposes detection-threshold changes and records whether the deterministic backtest clears its gate.

The walkthrough

  1. 1

    Monitoring and screening outputs enter separate queues; Cadre begins with the cases supplied to its blueprints.

  2. 2

    Sift works the supplied transaction-monitoring queue — close with a note, or escalate with reason codes.

    Open example capture
  3. 3

    Cerberus compares a sanctions name-hit with the supplied SDN evidence, then clears, blocks, or escalates within its defined scope.

    Open example capture
  4. 4

    Escalations open a case. Bloodhound builds the investigation packet and hands the subject to Cerberus for a fresh sanctions screen.

  5. 5

    On a flagged case the blueprints work as one: Conductor plans the case, routes each stage to the right specialist, and replans from every result.

  6. 6

    In this example, Aarvion blocks submission without BSA-officer approval and sends the case back for review.

  7. 7

    Calibrate proposes a threshold change and records the backtest result; production adoption remains an accountable change decision.
