Clause by Clause: Retrieval-Augmented Compliance Verification for Construction Documents

KAUST PDEC (Planning, Design, Engineering, and Construction) is the university's in-house owner's representative consultancy, which plans, designs, and delivers KAUST's construction works. Our project is an AI-powered screening tool that reviews PDEC's scope-of-work documents (project specifications & BOQs) against the KAUST Standards, flagging each finding as inadequate, adequate, or exceeding compliance, with shortfalls and suggested solutions. It adds a compliance safety net that PDEC's current process lacks.
