Automate Scope Validation on MEP Coordination Drawings

The Scope Checker Agent cross-checks coordination drawings against specifications, subagreements, and prime contracts simultaneously. When work appears on mechanical drawings but is addressed only in another trade's specifications, or when no subagreement explicitly assigns responsibility for a depicted element, the agent flags the gap with the specific document locations and trade boundaries involved. This catches disputes that typically surface only when a subcontractor protests during mobilization.

The agent prioritizes the most recent revisions of MEP coordination drawings from Procore and compares them against earlier versions referenced in contracts and specifications. When a subagreement references a superseded drawing revision, or when an executed change order modifies scope that has not been reflected in the latest coordination drawings, the agent flags the discrepancy. This prevents field teams from building to outdated information as drawing revisions accumulate across MEP trades.

No. The agent performs the document reconciliation and risk classification that precedes scope decisions. It identifies where contractual language conflicts with drawing content, where trade responsibilities overlap, and where exclusions create unassigned work. Project managers and operations leadership still determine how to resolve each flagged item, whether through RFIs, change orders, or contract amendments. The agent delivers the analysis. People decide the resolution.

The agent performs exclusion analysis by evaluating each subcontractor's exclusion language against the full project scope defined in prime contracts, specifications, and coordination drawings. When an exclusion removes work that no other subagreement covers, the agent flags the resulting gap and classifies it by risk level. This is particularly relevant for MEP coordination, where exclusions by one trade can cascade into unassigned scope that only surfaces later in the coordination process.

The agent ingests executed change orders from SharePoint and reconciles them against the current coordination drawing set and specifications in Procore. When a change order modifies the scope of one trade in a way that affects adjacent trades, or when approved changes have not been reflected in the latest coordination drawings, the agent flags the discrepancy. Change order groupings are organized by CSI MasterFormat division, so operations teams can track cumulative scope modifications by trade and division rather than reviewing change orders individually.
