Construction
We help UK contractors, builders and construction consultancies use AI to tame documents, reports and admin, so teams spend more time building.
In short
Construction is one of the UK's lowest adopters of AI, which makes it a real advantage for firms that start now. The quickest wins are document search across drawings, specifications and RAMS, drafting site reports and daily diaries, tender question answers and invoice matching. We fit AI around existing systems and keep competent people signing off safety documents.
Search drawings, specs and RAMS in plain English.
Site diaries and progress reports drafted from notes.
Quality answers drafted from your past bids.

ONS data shows only around 13% of UK construction businesses used AI in June 2026, against 58% in information and communication. Fragmented systems, site-based teams and paper-heavy processes are common reasons. That gap is an opportunity: practical tools can save significant office and site time.
Documents and admin. AI can search across drawings, specifications, RAMS and contracts, draft site diaries and progress reports from voice notes or photos, answer tender quality questions from past bids, and match supplier invoices to orders. Safety-critical judgements stay with competent people.
| Use case | Effort | Likely impact |
|---|---|---|
| Project document search | Medium | High: less time hunting for the latest drawing |
| Site diary and report drafting | Low to medium | High for site managers |
| Tender response drafting | Medium | High: faster, more consistent bids |
| Invoice and order matching | Medium | Medium: fewer payment disputes |
| RAMS first drafts | Medium | Medium: competent person must approve |
It can speed up first drafts and help people find the right document, but duty holders under the Construction (Design and Management) Regulations remain responsible. We build tools that draft and check for missing sections, then require a competent person to review and approve.
Rarely. We connect AI to where your documents already live, such as SharePoint, common data environments, shared drives and email. That keeps disruption low and means site teams do not have to learn a new system.
Agree a baseline before anything is built: how long site managers spend on diaries and reports each week, how long bid teams take per tender, and how many invoice queries you handle. We then measure the same figures after launch, so the return is visible in hours and money, not opinion.
Construction margins are tight, so we keep first projects small and inexpensive. A single tool that saves each site manager an hour a day is worth more than an ambitious platform that nobody uses. Once a tool proves itself on one project, rolling it out to others costs far less.
We also train office and site staff together, because adoption fails when tools are designed only for the office. Short demonstrations on real project documents work better than long manuals.

Still unsure? Ask us on a free 20-minute call.
Yes. A document assistant can search your drawing registers and folders in plain English, and we set it to prefer the latest approved revision and show the source, so people can check before acting.
Yes. We design for mobile, including voice notes and photos, so site managers can create diary entries and reports without returning to the office.
It can produce a structured first draft from your templates and project details, which saves time. A competent person must review, adapt to the site and approve it. We never position AI as the decision-maker on safety.
Usually. We connect to SharePoint, common data environments and shared drives through their APIs or sync. Integration is confirmed during scoping.
A document search assistant or site report tool is typically live within four to eight weeks after scoping, including testing with real project documents.
Our fixed-fee AI roadmap is £1,950 + VAT. Builds are quoted at a fixed price after scoping, so you know the cost upfront.
