## Real-World Application: Global Supply Chain Management
Our most successful implementation powers AeroSpace Industries' global manufacturing and logistics operations, orchestrating 250,000+ daily tasks across 43 countries. Their engineers use our platform to coordinate the assembly of commercial aircraft, tracking every component from raw material to installation, with real-time status updates and dependency management.
**Results:**
- 47% reduction in production delays
- 98.7% task completion accuracy
- $43M annual savings in operational inefficiencies
- Integration with 17 critical enterprise systems
## API Endpoints
### Task Resource Management
#### Get Organizational Task Hierarchy
```
GET /api/v1/organizations/{orgId}/tasks
```
Retrieves the complete organizational task structure with intelligent filtering.
**Advanced Query Parameters:**
- `depth` (integer): Hierarchical depth to retrieve (1-10)
- `status` (array): Filter by multiple statuses with comma separation
- `priority` (array): Filter by priority levels
- `assignee` (array): Filter by multiple assignees
- `due-range` (string): ISO-8601 time range (e.g., "2023-06-01T00:00:00Z/2023-06-30T23:59:59Z")
- `dependencies` (boolean): Include dependency graph information
- `metrics` (boolean): Include performance metrics and KPIs
- `resource-utilization` (boolean): Include resource allocation data
**Response:** `200 OK`
