Why AI Plan Check Matters for Chicago Projects
Chicago's construction market—from Loop high-rises to industrial development across the metro—demands efficient QA/QC to keep projects on schedule. Chicago's unique building code requirements, combined with complex MEP coordination in cold-climate construction, create opportunities for costly errors. InspectMind AI helps teams catch issues before permit submission, reducing revision cycles and avoiding field rework.
