Construction, Engineering & Architecture
Your projects are complex.
Your admin shouldn't be.
Automation for construction firms, engineering consultancies and architecture practices – from tender processing and contract management to site documentation and compliance reporting. End-to-end automated, system-integrated, in production.
The Reality in Construction & Engineering
Projects are delivered on site - but managed in spreadsheets, emails and filing cabinets
Tender processing is a manual marathon
Every tender involves extracting requirements from hundreds of pages, cross-referencing specifications, assembling submissions from multiple disciplines, and meeting tight deadlines. Most of this is copying, formatting and checking – not engineering.
Contract variations disappear into email threads
Variations, instructions, early warnings and compensation events live in emails, letters and meeting minutes. Nobody has a single view of contractual exposure. Claims are missed because nobody tracked the 28-day notice period.
Site documentation never reaches the system
Inspection reports, daily logs, progress photos, snagging lists – captured on site, then manually typed into the project management system days later. By the time it is in the system, the information is already stale.
Project reporting takes days, not minutes
Monthly project reports require data from cost systems, scheduling tools, site records, subcontractor returns and risk registers. A project manager spends 2-3 days assembling the report instead of managing the project.

What We Automate in Construction & Engineering
The administrative processes that drain project teams
Not the engineering itself, but everything around it: the paperwork, the data entry, the compliance tracking, the reporting.
Tender & Bid Processing
AI agent reads tender documents, extracts requirements, cross-references specifications, identifies risks and gaps. Bid assembly automated: pulling CVs, method statements, pricing schedules and compliance declarations from the library.
Contract & Variation Management
Automatic extraction of contractual obligations, deadlines, notice periods. Variation tracking with automated early warning and compensation event notices. Single dashboard showing contractual exposure across all live projects.
Site Documentation & Reporting
Inspection reports, daily logs, progress records and snagging lists captured on site and automatically structured, filed and fed into the project management system. No re-typing, no delays, no lost records.
Project Cost & Commercial Reporting
Automatic consolidation of cost data, valuations, forecasts and subcontractor returns. Monthly project reports generated in hours not days. Variance analysis with AI-suggested explanations.
Compliance & Health & Safety
Automatic tracking of permits, method statements, RAMS, training records and certification expiry. Proactive alerts before deadlines. Audit-ready documentation at the press of a button.
Subcontractor & Supply Chain Management
Automatic processing of subcontractor applications, payment notices, CIS returns and retention tracking. Order processing, delivery scheduling and invoice matching across the supply chain.
Cross-industry use cases particularly relevant in manufacturing
Case Study: Invoice Processing
Incoming invoices were transferred manually between isolated systems — with no direct integration between the document inbox and the ERP. Staff extracted document data by hand, performed manual matching, and routed each order individually through the approval workflow. This resulted in high time expenditure, error-prone data entry, and delays across the entire accounts order process.
UiPath Intelligent Document Processing (IXP) with Document Understanding and LLM integration for automatic extraction and classification of invoice documents — with direct ERP connectivity. Rule-based matching, automatic exception handling, and seamless routing through the approval workflow. No manual intervention between inbox and posting.

Why Lunatec for Construction & Engineering
We automate the office, so your team can focus on the project
Industry Understanding
We understand NEC, JCT and FIDIC
Contract management automation requires understanding of construction contracts, not just data processing. We know what a compensation event is, why the 8-week assessment period matters, and how early warnings flow.
System Integration
We connect your project stack
Primavera, Asta, MS Project, COINS, Sage Construction, Procore, Aconex, BIM 360 – we integrate with the systems your teams already use, without replacing them.
Site to Office
From site capture to system entry in seconds
We bridge the gap between what happens on site and what appears in the system. Mobile capture, automatic structuring, instant filing. No more re-typing inspection reports on Friday afternoons.
Speed
Results in weeks, not programme milestones
Construction firms have no patience for 18-month IT programmes. We deliver the first bot in weeks and scale from there. You see results before the next board meeting.
