Connecting project knowledge with everyday engineering work

Engineering teams need more than access to files. They need to understand which information is current, what was decided, and who is responsible for the next step. Knowledge from previous projects also needs to remain useful when different people take on similar work.

We’re designing an AI platform around the firm’s existing documents and engineering processes. The scope brings together:

1. A searchable knowledge system that helps employees find answers in approved company and project documents, with references to the original material.

2. A meeting workflow that prepares draft minutes, decisions, and follow-up tasks for staff to review.

3. Project views that organize responsibilities and deadlines, with broader visibility for managers overseeing several projects.

4. A controlled process for adding new information while retaining its source and review status.

An employee should be able to move from a question to the relevant document, understand the decision behind it, and see the work assigned to them. Managers should be able to review outstanding work across projects.

AI helps prepare and organize information. Engineering decisions and approvals remain with the firm’s professionals. The engagement is being developed in stages around these workflows.
