Small-center financial viability monitor

Problem: Inspection snapshots showed one 61-capacity center serving only 16–24 children at a time — roughly a third of licensed capacity — while state data shows 59% of Florida early-learning programs are underenrolled, a 4% quality bonus was removed in mid-2025, and subsidy reimbursement rates run as low as $14.28/day for school-age care. Centers in this position face quiet financial distress long before anyone notices.

Idea: A watsonx Orchestrate viability agent that combines a center's observed census (from inspection records), licensed capacity, local subsidy rates, and staffing costs into an early-warning financial-health score — alerting coalitions and the operator when a center drifts toward the distress zone where abrupt closure becomes likely.

Value: Coalitions intervene with support before a center collapses mid-year and strands enrolled families; operators see the math early enough to act.
