Review addenda against base drawings

Addenda often create new conflicts. AI checks addenda against base drawings to catch coordination issues, cascading impacts, and missed updates.

Why addenda create problems

Addenda are issued under time pressure, often days before bid. Design teams update specific issues but may not have time to check every related sheet. The result: addenda that fix one problem while creating new coordination conflicts. Without systematic review, these issues surface during construction as RFIs and change orders.

What AI catches in addenda

  • Addenda conflicts with unchanged base drawings

    When an addendum changes one discipline but related sheets aren't updated

  • Cascading impacts not addressed

    Structural changes that affect MEP routing, or architectural changes that affect egress

  • Specification updates without drawing updates

    Spec addenda that conflict with base drawing callouts

  • Missed scope additions

    New requirements in addenda that aren't reflected in related details

  • Conflicting addenda

    Later addenda that contradict earlier addenda without clear supersession
