ZANUS AI FOR CONSTRUCTION — BACK OFFICE

The project drowns in paper.
Make the paper work.

RFIs, submittals, change orders, daily logs, punch lists, pay apps, lien waivers: margin lives and dies in the paper trail. The Zanus back office turns that trail into a working AI staff — drafting, cross-referencing and answering with the sheet cited, under your PM’s sign-off.

Construction work types configured in the back office

Work types molded to the firm: RFI drafts, submittal summaries, project digests — each with default libraries.

What it does

Scheduled project work

The Monday 6 AM digest per active job — open RFIs, overdue submittals, inspections due, weather flags — drafted before the superintendent’s truck starts.

The archive answers

“What did RFI 47 resolve on the Fairview job?” “Which spec section covers the roof membrane?” — answered in seconds with the document attached, not an hour in the email chain.

Sign-off stays human

Every AI-drafted RFI response, change-order summary and owner report lands in Output awaiting review. Nothing goes to the owner or the record without your PM’s decision.

The RFI answered from documents you already have

A sub asks about a conflict between the structural drawings and the architectural set. The AI pulls both sheets, the relevant spec section and two prior RFIs on the same detail, and drafts the response with every source cited — your PM reviews, adjusts and sends. Turnaround in hours protects the schedule.

RFI support work tracked and prioritized

Project documents drafted in the firm’s templates

Submittals, change orders, pay-app support — drafted

Submittal-log summaries with overdue items flagged, change-order narratives from the daily logs and correspondence, pay-application backup organized with the records attached: the documents that consume PM evenings, drafted in your templates in minutes.

Your forms and templates, your numbering
Daily logs and correspondence pulled in automatically
Approval workflow before anything is sent or filed

Construction tech is sold per project, per module and per user — while the superintendent still digs through email chains for the RFI answer and the estimator rebuilds the same assembly costs every bid. Zanus AI: the office side AND every jobsite on one flat-price system, unlimited users — in your private tenant or on a server you own.

Questions, answered

Does it connect to our project management system?

API connectors integrate with existing systems; documents flow through the intake pipeline under your rules. Bring your project management and accounting stack to the demo and we map the path.

Can it read handwritten daily logs?

Yes — photos of handwritten logs, scanned delivery tickets, marked-up plans: the ingestion pipeline turns what the jobsite actually produces into queryable knowledge.
