AI QA/QC for Subcontractors
Comprehensive quality assurance and quality control check across the entire drawing set for consistency, completeness, and accuracy. Designed for the way subcontractors work.
The Challenges Subcontractors Face
Conflicts between their scope and other trades not caught during coordination
Ambiguous drawings leading to re-work at their cost
Scope creep from design issues that weren't flagged at bid time
Delays waiting for RFI responses before they can proceed
Back-charges from coordination failures between trades
How Articulate Helps
Faster QA/QC for Subcontractors
AI reviews your entire drawing set in hours instead of days. Subcontractors get comprehensive drawing set qa/qc results without pulling senior staff off other projects.
Purpose-Built Construction AI
Articulate's AI is trained specifically for construction drawing analysis — not a generic AI tool repurposed for construction. This domain expertise gives subcontractors higher confidence in every detected issue.
Exact Issue Locations
Every detected issue includes the exact page and coordinates on your PDF drawings, plus severity ratings (high, medium, low) so subcontractors can prioritize their review time.
Actionable Results
Turn detected issues into formatted RFIs with one click. Push directly to Procore with issue details, code references, and page locations — no manual re-entry.
Example Issues Articulate Catches
Real-world issues detected by AI analysis, relevant to subcontractors doing drawing set qa/qc:
Coordination conflict between subcontractor scope and adjacent disciplines
Building code compliance issue detected in drawing details
Missing information that would generate an RFI during construction
Dimension discrepancy between plan view and section detail
Specification callout on drawing doesn't match the spec book requirements
