PalydinConstruction is the least AI-adopted industry in Australia
Margin advantage in construction
isn’t won on site.
Contract administration still runs on spreadsheets, PDF markups, and email chains while every other industry has moved on. The firms that automate first win on margins and delivery speed.
The Problem
The industry digitised everything except the commercial
workflow that actually moves money.
Still analogue
90%
of contract admin is manual
WBS in spreadsheets. Claims as PDFs. Variations in registers no one trusts. Both parties maintain separate versions of the same data.
AI-ready
Minutes
not days
AI can read a contract, track cumulative progress, flag discrepancies, and generate payment certificates. The tools exist. Construction just hasn’t adopted them yet.
Compounding cost
Every period
the gap widens
Every month spent on manual reconciliation is margin lost. The firms that move to AI-first contract administration compound that advantage every claim period.
The Platform
Structured data. Scoped access. AI at every step.
WBS, claims, variations, forecasts, retention, and compliance — in one structured data model. Not twelve spreadsheets.
- Work breakdown structures
- Claims & variations
- Cost forecasts
- Compliance documents
- Retention & payments
Contractors and clients work from the same data. Permissions control what each party sees. No reconciliation meetings.
- Shared contractor-client access
- Role-based permissions
- Multi-contract portfolios
- Counterparty scoping
From reading contracts to flagging assessment discrepancies, AI handles the work that used to take days. You make the decisions.
- Contract analysis
- Progress tracking
- Claim assessment
- Payment certificates
- Discrepancy detection
Capabilities
From scope to certified payment.
Build your WBS once
Every claim, variation, and forecast traces back to one structure. Build it once, never rebuild it.
Claims that carry forward
Progress is cumulative and automatic. No manual reconciliation. Fully auditable.
Variations with full context
Linked to WBS items with approval workflows. No separate register that falls out of sync.
Compliance that blocks, not chases
Expired insurance or missing certificates? The claim won’t submit. Obligations enforced, not emailed about.
Costs with confidence intervals
First principles, unit rates, actuals, and Monte Carlo simulation. Know where your project is heading — P10 to P90.
Portfolio visibility
Health scores, cash flow, earned value, and assessment erosion — across every contract, every project.
For the firms ready to move first
If this sounds like your week, we built this for you.
Commercial Managers
You spend the first week of every month rebuilding a claim in Excel. Reconciling cumulative progress by hand. Hoping the formulas are right.
There’s a better way. There is.
Project Directors
You manage ten contracts across three projects and still can’t get a single view of your financial position without chasing five people.
Now you can.
Principals & Clients
You assess claims against a spreadsheet you didn’t build and don’t trust. Every period is a reconciliation exercise, not a commercial decision.
Work from the same model instead.
AI is reshaping every industry. Construction has a window to move.
