The problem
What's costing your construction time and money right now.
Estimating takes days and still gets it wrong
Your estimator pulls up old job files, manually adjusts for material prices, rings suppliers for quotes, and builds a spreadsheet. It takes 2-3 days per estimate. Half the time, something gets missed and the margin evaporates once work starts.
Scheduling is a full-time job nobody signed up for
Coordinating subbies, deliveries, inspections, and weather delays across multiple sites. One delay cascades through the whole programme. Your project manager spends more time on the phone rearranging schedules than actually managing the build.
Job costing happens after the money's already gone
You don't find out a job went over budget until the final account. Material costs crept up, day rates added up, variations weren't tracked properly. By the time you see the numbers, the profit's already been spent.
Finding good subcontractors is always a scramble
You need a reliable plasterer for next Tuesday. Your usual guy is booked. So you ring around, ask other subbies, check who's free. It's the same scramble every time because there's no system tracking who's available, who's reliable, and who's competitively priced.
Services for Construction
Six AI systems designed for how construction actually work.
Construction knowledge base
An AI trained on your company's project history, specifications, supplier catalogues, and building regulations. Your team asks questions about materials, methods, or compliance and gets answers with references. No more digging through folders or waiting for the one person who knows.
Lead qualification and estimating support
New enquiries get captured and qualified automatically. AI pulls together preliminary estimates based on project type, size, and your historical costs. Your estimator starts with a solid draft instead of a blank spreadsheet. Response time drops from days to hours.
Project scheduling and coordination
AI builds and maintains the project programme, tracks dependencies, and flags clashes before they happen. When a subcontractor cancels, it identifies the knock-on effects and suggests alternatives from your approved list. Your PM reviews options instead of rebuilding the schedule.
Job costing and budget tracking
AI tracks costs in real time against the estimate. Purchase orders, day work sheets, material deliveries, and variation orders all feed into a live cost report. You see margin erosion as it happens, not three months after handover.
Tender tracking and pipeline management
AI monitors tender portals, filters opportunities matching your capabilities and preferred project size, and compiles tender documents from your library. Your BD team focuses on the bids worth winning instead of searching through hundreds of irrelevant listings.
Site team adoption and training
Your team tests the AI systems during the build with real project data. By launch, site managers and PMs already know how to check budgets, update schedules, and pull reports. No classroom training sessions that get forgotten by Monday.
Real-world applications
What this looks like in practice.
Automated estimating from drawings
Upload architectural drawings. AI extracts quantities, cross-references your supplier price lists, applies your standard labour rates, and produces a draft estimate. Your estimator reviews and adjusts instead of building from scratch. A 3-day estimate becomes a 3-hour review.
Real-time job costing dashboard
Material delivery arrives on site. The foreman logs it on his phone. AI matches it to the purchase order, updates the job cost report, and compares against the estimate. If the job is trending over budget, the PM gets an alert that same day, not that same quarter.
Subcontractor availability and dispatch
AI maintains a live database of your approved subcontractors with availability, rates, past performance scores, and trade qualifications. When you need someone, it shows who's free, what they charge, and how they performed on your last three jobs.
Results you can expect
- Estimating time reduced by 60-75% per project
- Budget overruns caught weeks earlier with real-time tracking
- Subcontractor scheduling from 2-3 hours to 15 minutes
