Shop drawings checked against the spec

Compares each shop drawing with its spec item and the previous version, and marks every difference. Your project manager signs off before it goes to the designer.

Problem

Each shop drawing is checked against its spec item: dimensions, materials, finishes, hardware and the brand standard. The designer returns comments, a new version is drawn and the check starts again, including the comments from the last round.

What it does

YP reads each drawing version, compares it with the spec item and the previous version, and checks that the designer’s earlier comments were addressed. It returns a list of differences, each linked to the spec line or comment it concerns.

How it works

See exactly how the work gets done.

Each new version of a shop drawing starts a new check. The run starts when a drawing is saved to the project folder in SharePoint, as a PDF or a CAD export.

The drawing is checked against the spec. Dimensions, materials, finishes and hardware are compared with the spec item and the brand standard.

Every change since the previous version is listed. YP compares the new drawing with the last one, so nothing changes unnoticed.

The designer’s earlier comments are checked one by one. Each comment from the last review round is marked as addressed or still open.

Your project manager signs off before the drawing goes to the designer. The project manager reviews the list and submits the drawing, and nothing goes to the designer without their approval.

The outcome

Your drafters fix what is marked instead of searching for it. Every review round is checked against the spec and the last comments.

01
4 checks per drawing

Dimensions, materials, finishes and hardware against the spec

02
Designer comments tracked

Each one marked addressed or still open

03
Project manager submits

Every drawing, before it reaches the designer

For your numbers

YP checks every shop drawing against the spec and the designer’s last comments, so drawings are approved in fewer rounds and production 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.
