AI+ Construction Professionals
Build Better, Safer and Smarter
Site managed. Documentation done. Evenings reclaimed.
You spend more time on documentation than on anything else — and most of it happens in the evenings. This book gives construction professionals the CODES Protocol for governing AI on live projects, 29 copy-ready prompt templates for site diaries, method statements, variation quotations, and progress reports, and a 30-day plan built for how construction work actually flows. Written for site managers, project engineers, contracts managers, and quantity surveyors who need practical results, not a technology lecture.
- 29 ready-made, market-tested prompts: site diaries, RFIs, progress reports, method statements, risk assessments, variation accounts, subcontractor correspondence
- The BUILD Protocol — framework for Brief integrity, Use authorisation, IP and confidentiality, Liability ownership, Documentation control
- An RFI workflow that turns half-hour drafts into five-minute responses — site-specific and contractually clean
- A method statement discipline that uses AI for adaptation while preserving the competent-person review gate
- A 30-day plan for site managers, contracts managers, project engineers, construction managers, and quantity surveyors
Site Managers, Contracts Managers, Project Engineers, Construction Managers, and Site Supervisors — the professionals who run construction projects on a daily basis. They are responsible for co-ordinating site operations, managing subcontractors, ensuring health and safety compliance, maintaining quality standards, controlling costs and variations, progressing the programme, and producing the documentation trail that underpins every contractual, regulatory, and commercial decision on the project. They have 3–20 years of construction experience, working across commercial, residential, civil, or industrial sectors for main contractors, specialist subcontractors, or project management consultancies. They spend a significant proportion of their working week on documentation — site diaries, progress reports, RFIs, method statements, risk assessments, variation accounts, and commercial correspondence — and feel the pressure of keeping it current, accurate, and compliant while the project keeps moving. They are practical, hands-on, and deeply sceptical of anything that sounds like a technology pitch. They want proof that something works on an actual construction site, not a technology demo.
Also for:Quantity Surveyors embedded on projects, Health & Safety Managers, Document Controllers, and Design Managers working within a main contractor or specialist contractor environment. Also relevant to construction graduates and apprentices building their professional practice.
- Apply the PRISM Prompting Framework to construction's most documentation-heavy tasks — site diaries, RFIs, progress reports, method statements, and commercial correspondence — producing professional-quality outputs in a fraction of the normal time
- Use AI to draft, review, and improve health, safety, and environment documents (risk assessments, method statements, toolbox talk outlines, incident reports) while maintaining the competent person's legal obligation to review, approve, and issue all safety-critical documents
- Apply the CODES Protocol to classify project data, protect commercial confidentiality, ensure inspection record integrity, and maintain document control discipline when using AI on construction projects
- Use AI to support commercial and contract management tasks — variation quotations, daywork records, claim narratives, and subcontractor correspondence — with accuracy, auditability, and contractual integrity
- Design a 30-day personal AI adoption plan for the construction site environment, identifying the highest-value starting tasks and the governance habits that protect the project and the professional
