Overview
What this solution explores
This concept case study explores an assistant grounded in project documents: find the right spec, summarize site notes, and draft status updates for human review — without inventing site facts.
Business problem
Where work gets stuck today
Project knowledge is buried in folders, WhatsApp threads and PDFs. Teams lose time hunting specs and rewriting status updates while decisions wait.
Existing process
How the work usually moves now
- 01
Question arrives from site, client or internal PM
- 02
Someone searches drives and old emails for the right PDF
- 03
Status updates are rewritten from scattered notes
- 04
Wrong revision risk when documents are not versioned clearly
Proposed AI workflow
The intended operating path
- 01Index approved project document sets with version metadata
- 02Answer retrieval questions with citations to the source file/page
- 03Summarize site notes into structured bullets for PM review
- 04Draft status updates from approved inputs only
- 05Block answers when the corpus has no grounded source
