Automate Plumbing Scope of Work Validation

The AI agent cross-references gas piping scope language in the plumbing subagreement against the mechanical subagreement and the project specifications. Gas piping jurisdiction varies by code body: under [IAPMO's Uniform Plumbing Code](https://codes.iapmo.org/home.aspx?code=UPC), gas piping is addressed in Chapter 12 as part of the plumbing code's scope. Under the ICC framework, gas piping is handled in the standalone [International Fuel Gas Code](https://www.iccsafe.org/products-and-services/i-codes/2018-i-codes/ifgc/) rather than within plumbing scope. The AI agent flags when gas distribution piping, service regulators, or final equipment shutoff valves are excluded from both the plumbing and mechanical scopes, identifying the specific unassigned segment.

The AI agent compares fixture schedules in the drawings against the plumbing subagreement's scope of work to confirm that stub-out valves, escutcheon plates, trim rings, and final connections are explicitly assigned. It also cross-checks whether final connections to owner-furnished equipment are included in the rough-in price or listed as a separate scope item. When the subagreement is silent on these items, the AI agent flags the gap and identifies the specific fixture type and location.

No. The AI agent executes the project-file cross-referencing and pattern detection that currently consumes hours of PM time per project. It delivers structured findings with specific clause references. Project managers decide how to resolve each flagged item: whether to issue a subagreement amendment, negotiate the scope assignment with the trade contractor, or escalate to the owner. The AI agent removes the data-wrangling burden. Your team retains every decision.

The AI agent identifies subagreements where a "complete and functioning systems" clause coexists with an itemized exclusions list. That combination can create disputes over what the subcontractor included in its price, especially when exclusions conflict with drawing or specification requirements. The AI agent flags each conflict, references the specific exclusion against the corresponding drawing or specification requirement, and generates an action item for your team to resolve the contradiction before it reaches the field.

The AI agent processes project files on-the-fly as they are added to SharePoint and Procore across active projects. It returns structured results per project, identifying recurring gap patterns, such as site utility boundary issues at the 5-foot demarcation line or firestopping responsibility at rated assembly penetrations, that can indicate a template issue rather than a one-off omission. This gives your operations team visibility into which scope templates need revision across the portfolio.
