Submittals checked against the specification

Checks each submittal from a subcontractor or supplier against the specification and drawings, and marks every deviation. Your project manager submits it to the architect.

Checks and marks. Your project manager submits
Problem

Every subcontractor and supplier sends product data, shop drawings and sample records for approval. Each one is checked against its specification section and the drawings before it goes to the architect. A rejected submittal comes back for another round, and ordering waits until it is approved.

What it does

YP reads each submittal, finds the specification section and drawings it must meet, and compares product, performance, dimensions and finish. It returns a list of deviations, each linked to the clause or drawing it concerns, and records each check in the submittal log.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

The work starts when a new submittal comes in. A submittal in the project inbox or folder starts the run, and the PDF data sheets, drawings and test reports are read.

The requirements for each submittal are found in the project folder. YP pulls the matching specification section, the drawings and the earlier review comments from that folder.

Each submittal is checked line by line. Product, performance class, dimensions and finish are compared with the specification, and every deviation is listed with its clause.

YP drafts a question when something is unclear and does not guess. A missing data sheet or an unclear requirement becomes a question for the subcontractor, prepared for your project manager.

Your project manager decides what goes to the architect. The project manager reviews the list and sends the submittal to the architect, and nothing goes out without their approval.

The outcome

Your project managers review marked deviations instead of reading every data sheet. Every check is on record in the submittal log.

01
Every submittal checked

Against its specification section and drawings

02
4 checks per item

Product, performance, dimensions and finish

03
Project manager submits

To the architect, after reviewing every deviation

For your numbers

YP checks every submittal against the specification before it goes to the architect, so fewer come back rejected and ordering starts sooner.

How it runs

Designed for enterprise.

Private

Runs on your infrastructure. Drawings, prices, client and claims data never train a model.

Explainable

Not a black box. An AI auditor checks that every task was done as intended and proposes improvements.

Traceable

Every value links to the document, rule or record it came from. Every step is logged. A named person approves anything that leaves the building.

Your systems

Works in your ERP, CargoWise, policy system, GIS and file shares. Nothing is replaced.
