Key Capabilities

What it does

Pricing Schedule and Lot Extraction

Identifies all pricing lines, lots, and optional items from tender pricing schedules. Captures line descriptions, contract types (fixed price, time and materials, cost-reimbursable), and pricing instructions. Extracts base period and option period structures.

BOQ and Physical Quantity Extraction

For construction, infrastructure, and supply contracts. Reads Bills of Quantities with physical quantities and unit measurements. Extracts material specifications, approved products, and lump sum items. Handles multi-trade BOQs across civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical sections.

Rate Benchmarking

Benchmarks labour rates against framework rate data and TED award records. Rate distribution by percentile: 25th for competitive pricing, 50th for mid-market, 75th for premium. Location-adjusted rate suggestions across UK regions and EU member states.

Drawing and Specification Analysis

Upload construction drawing sets in PDF for automated AI analysis. Automatic sheet classification by discipline. Quantity extraction from drawings matched against the BOQ. Conflict detection between drawings and specifications with auto-generated clarification questions.
