Pre-Bid Risk Intelligence

Catch Scope Gaps

Every Bid Carries Hidden Risk

Drawings contradict specs. Schedules don't match the scope. Scope gaps hide in the details — and someone always pays for them later.

📋
Drawings vs. Specs Don't Match
Finish schedules, equipment specs, and structural notes often contradict what's shown on the drawings. These conflicts become RFIs — or worse, change orders — in the field.
⚠️
Scope Gets Missed at Bid
Work that belongs in your scope but isn't clearly assigned to any trade. Items buried in spec divisions that never made it onto the drawings. You bid it low and own it anyway.
⏱️
No Time for a Full Review
Bid cycles are short. Reviewing hundreds of pages across drawings, specs, addenda, and schedule — manually — is not realistic. Something always gets missed.

A Second Set of Eyes for Every Bid

PlanIQ reads your complete document package — drawings, specifications, and schedule — and cross-references them to surface the issues that cost you money at closeout.

Built for estimators, preconstruction managers, VDC/BIM teams, and project executives who need answers before bid day, not explanations after. PlanIQ gives you a structured review in minutes — not days.

Cross-document analysis
Drawings, specs, and schedules reviewed as a single package — not in isolation.
Structured, actionable output
Issues ranked by risk level. RFI log. Submittal list. Change order risks. Ready to act on.
Built for your team
Estimators, VDC leads, project executives, and preconstruction managers — PlanIQ fits your workflow.

Six Categories of Pre-Bid Risk

Every plan review surfaces issues across the categories that drive cost overruns and project risk.

🔍
Scope Gaps
Work implied but not assigned — missing from drawings, omitted from specs, or unallocated between trades. Found before bid, not after award.
⚠️
Drawing vs. Spec Conflicts
Discrepancies between what's drawn and what's specified. Finish schedules, equipment cuts, structural notes — cross-referenced automatically.
RFI Candidates
Questions that need answers before or during construction. Identified at bid time so you can price the risk or route them to the design team early.
📦
Submittal Requirements
Required submittals extracted from the spec and cross-checked against the drawings. No more building a submittal log from scratch in week two.
💰
Change Order Risks
Conditions that commonly generate change orders — undefined scope boundaries, spec ambiguity, coordination gaps — flagged and ranked before bid day.
📅
Schedule Inconsistencies
Milestone conflicts, sequencing issues, and phasing gaps between the project schedule and construction documents — reviewed in one pass.
