RFI Agent

Find drawing conflicts before they reach your price.

RFI Agent reads your drawings and specifications against each other and ties every finding to its source. Your estimators review and prioritize what it surfaces, then take a shortlist of what to qualify, escalate, coordinate, or leave alone to the design team before the price goes out.

100+

Potential drawing and specification issues surfaced in an hour

Every finding

Tied to the exact specification page or drawing behind it

Your call

Your estimator selects what matters before anything is shared or issued

One report

A shortlist the owner and design team can act on

The review you cannot finish

The package is bigger than the review time you have

Days of manual comparison

Days spent comparing drawings, specifications and revisions, one document at a time.

Gaps that reach the field

What gets missed in review does not disappear. It turns up in construction.

Design risk priced into the bid

Unresolved design risk goes into the price, and the margin goes with it.

The reviewed issue report

One report the owner and design team can act on

RFI Agent turns a large set of potential issues into a shortlist your team has reviewed and stands behind. Each issue carries the evidence and the decision alongside it.

A clear issue title and summary
Why the issue matters and which scope it affects
The exact specification page or drawing behind the finding
A suggested question or resolution
Priority, discipline, review status, and selected action
The audience or workflow the issue will move into

Book a Demo

A single reviewed issue: exterior steel galvanizing requirement, marked high impact and approved, with the conflicting clauses, the impact on structural steel fabrication, its two sources, a specification article on page 436 and drawing sheet S1.01, and the Generate RFI action

How RFI Agent works

From document package to a reviewed shortlist

Find

Upload the package. RFI Agent reads drawings and specifications against each other, surfacing unclear requirements, omissions and conflicts.

Verify

Every finding arrives with the source behind it, the exact specification page or drawing, so your team can confirm it in seconds instead of hunting for it.

Prioritize

Filter by impact, conflict type, discipline, and status to work the findings that actually affect scope and price first.

Decide

Your estimator sets the action on each issue. It can become an RFI, a bid qualification, a clarification, a trade coordination item, a mitigation action, or no action at all. Teams rarely action everything: they work down from the critical findings and send that shortlist to the design team before questions close.

Export

Send the reviewed shortlist out as a report the owner and design team can act on.

Work the ones that matter

Not every potential issue deserves the same attention

A large package produces more findings than anyone should work through in order. Filter by impact, conflict type, discipline and review status, so your team starts with the issues that actually move scope and price.

Book a Demo

RFI Agent filter panel narrowing 229 issues to three with High impact and Finish / Coating Mismatch selected, with further options for discipline and review status of open, approved or rejected

Why us

Why teams add RFI Agent to a review they already do

A good preconstruction team already reads the package. The limit is not skill, it is time and scale: a large set holds more cross-references than anyone can hold in their head before a deadline. RFI Agent reads the whole set against itself, shows the source behind every finding, and leaves the decision with your estimator.

RFI Agent	Reading the package by hand
The whole set, read against itself Drawings and specifications compared across the package rather than one document at a time.	Read in sequence Catching a drawing against a specification means one reader holding both in mind at once, across a package that keeps growing.
Every finding carries its source The exact specification page or drawing sits beside the finding, so it can be checked in seconds.	The reference lives in your notes An experienced estimator knows where it came from. Proving it to the design team still means going back to find the page.
More than 100 potential issues in an hour A full pass over the package before the deadline instead of after it.	Days of reading A thorough read is entirely possible. Covering the whole package before the tender date is the part that gives way.
Filter by impact, conflict type and discipline Work the findings that move scope and price first, and close out the rest on their own terms.	Triage from experience Good estimators prioritize well. Re-sorting the same list by impact, discipline or status means rebuilding it by hand each time.
The estimator sets the action on each finding RFI, bid qualification, clarification, coordination item, or nothing at all. The decision is recorded against the issue.	Decisions live in notes and email The reasoning exists. Reconstructing what was raised, and what was deliberately let go, takes time nobody has mid-bid.
Exports a reviewed report One shortlist the owner and the design team can act on.	Assembled by hand for each recipient The report gets written, often more than once, in the hours before questions close.

Customer proof

What Clark Construction said

“I went through the first 30, and of the first 30 I picked close to 22 that I would have submitted as RFIs. It turned out that some of the subs we’ve been working with caught the same things.”

Markee FosterProject Manager, Clark Construction

“I only expect as we get proficient using Provision it will help in countless ways. Thanks for jumping on the project so quickly. We would never have made it work without you and Provision.”

Marty SievertsonProject Manager, Clark Construction

Questions

What preconstruction teams ask

What does RFI Agent do?

RFI Agent reviews a construction document package for design issues. It reads drawings and specifications against each other, surfaces conflicts, omissions, and unclear requirements, attaches the source evidence to each finding, and produces a reviewed issue report the preconstruction team uses to decide what needs action before tender.

How many issues can RFI Agent find?

RFI Agent can surface more than 100 potential issues from a document set in an hour. Not every potential issue is material, which is why each finding includes the source evidence and goes through estimator review so the team can decide which ones matter.

Does RFI Agent send RFIs on my behalf?

No. RFI Agent does not issue anything into your RFI system. Your estimator reviews the findings and selects the action on each one. A finding may become an RFI, a bid qualification, a clarification, a trade coordination item, a mitigation action, or no action at all.

How does RFI Agent prove a finding is real?

Every finding carries the source behind it, the exact specification page or drawing the issue came from, so your team can verify it in seconds and defend it in front of the owner and the design team.

Who is RFI Agent built for?

RFI Agent is built for the preconstruction leader responsible for the quality of the estimate and for the team reviewing the document package, typically as a tender deadline approaches and the contractor still has to price around unresolved design questions.

Is RFI Agent secure?

RFI Agent is covered by the same controls as the rest of Provision. Provision is SOC 2 Type II certified and ISO 27001 compliant, with data encrypted in transit and at rest and role-based access controls.
