Elevator Modernization Scope of Work Validation

The Scope Checker Agent cross-checks specification sections against the subcontractor's scope project file and flags provisions that the spec calls out but the scope omits. For elevator modernization, this includes ASME A17.1 alteration-triggered requirements, ADA accessibility standards, and NFPA 72 fire alarm interface obligations. It generates action items tied to the specific specification section and code reference so operations teams can address gaps during buyout.

The Scope Checker Agent identifies exclusion clauses in the subcontractor scope and compares them against prime contract obligations and specification requirements. It flags items excluded by the elevator sub that remain unresolved in the broader contract structure. It also surfaces broad waiver language in change orders that can affect later recovery of impact costs.

No. The Scope Checker Agent executes the project-file cross-referencing and comparison work. It generates a structured report with flagged gaps, missing code provisions, and exclusion language risks. The PM and operations leadership review those findings and decide whether to negotiate scope revisions, issue RFIs for design clarification, or accept the identified risk.

The Scope Checker Agent connects to project management and project-file storage platforms across the portfolio. When change orders are executed or scope packages are revised in any connected system, it workflows the updated submissions and regenerates the validation report. Operations leadership can compare patterns across projects, identifying recurring exclusion language or recurring code-compliance gaps.

The Scope Checker Agent validates whether the scope project file identifies the specific ASME A17.1 edition, local amendments, and Authority Having Jurisdiction applicable to the project. The applicable code version is determined by each jurisdiction's adoption date, not just the publication date of the standard, so a scope referencing "applicable codes" without specifying the edition and jurisdiction is flagged as non-verifiable [elevator safety code](https://www.asme.org/codes-standards/find-codes-standards/safety-code-for-elevators-and-escalators). The operations team then confirms the applicable code version with the AHJ before scope finalization.
