Industry Reality

Margin pressure, SIA paperwork, and late evenings in the site office.

In mid-sized Swiss construction, timber, and building technology companies, money is earned on site and through precise preparation—yet site managers, estimators, and project leads spend more and more hours on minutes, change orders, tender reviews, and email overload.

When site meeting minutes, SIA-compliant notices, and hundreds of pages of tender specs still have to be processed after a long day on the construction site, margin risks increase.

Our hands-on AI trainings for construction teams show—without theoretical buzzwords—how site managers, estimators, and back-office staff save 4 to 6 hours of office work per week.

Scientific Evidence & Studies

Research and guidance in context

Research can help identify useful applications. It does not replace testing the outcome in your own business.

15 %2025

More resolved issues per hour in the study

The study Generative AI at Work reports an average 15% increase in resolved issues per hour in the customer-support setting studied. Results varied by experience and do not predict the outcome for every team.
