Alloovium

Cas d'usage

How construction teams use Alloovium

Real-world scenarios from project managers, contract administrators, and site supervisors who use Alloovium every day to work faster and reduce risk.

Pre-Tender Document Review

Bidding on a complex project means reading hundreds of pages of tender documents under time pressure. Alloovium lets you upload the full tender package — specification, drawings register, conditions of contract, and any addenda — and ask questions before you commit to a price.

What to look for before you bid

Upload the tender package to a new project and use the AI Assistant to quickly surface the clauses that affect your risk and price. Useful questions include:

  • “Quelles sont les dispositions relatives aux dommages-intérêts et aux taux journaliers ?” — Obtenez la référence exacte de la clause et le montant sans parcourir page par page.
  • “Y a-t-il des exigences inhabituelles en matière d'assurance ou de cautionnement ?” — Faites apparaître tout ce qui dépasse les standards afin d'obtenir les bons devis avant la soumission.
  • “Que dit le cahier des charges concernant les horaires de travail et les restrictions de bruit ?” — Identifiez les contraintes de programme qui affectent votre méthode et vos coûts.
  • “Le contrat comprend-il une clause de variation des prix ou de prix fixe ?” — Connaissez votre exposition aux variations du coût des matériaux avant de signer.

Finding contradictions between documents

Tender packages often include conflicts between the specification and the drawings, or between addenda and the original conditions. Ask Alloovium to compare documents:

“Les finitions en béton de la Section 03 30 00 du cahier des charges contredisent-elles quoi que ce soit dans les notes des plans architecturaux ?”

Every answer includes citations — numbered references to the exact pages and clauses the answer was drawn from. Use these to verify the finding and decide whether to raise a pre-tender query.

Generate a tender review document

Once you have your answers, use Document Generation to draft a structured tender review report grounded in your uploaded files — ready to download as DOCX.

Payment Claim Preparation

Preparing a monthly payment claim requires cross-referencing the contract schedule of rates, progress reports, variation orders, and the programme. Alloovium brings all of these documents into one place so you can build your claim with cited evidence rather than relying on memory or manual searching.

Establishing entitlement from the contract

Start by uploading the contract and any approved variations to a project. Then ask questions to establish the basis for your claim:

  • “Quels jalons ont été atteints selon le programme ?”
  • “Listez toutes les variantes approuvées et leurs montants.”
  • “Quel est le délai de soumission des demandes de paiement dans ce contrat ?”
  • “Y a-t-il des conditions préalables à une demande de paiement en vertu de la Clause 37 ?”

Supporting your claim with progress evidence

Add your progress photos register, site diary, and inspection records to the project. Then ask the AI to help you draft the claim narrative:

“Résumez les progrès réalisés sur les travaux de drainage des eaux pluviales entre le 1er et le 31 mars 2026 sur la base du journal de chantier et du registre des photos de progression.”

Copy the cited summary directly into your claim narrative. The citation numbers mean you can point the superintendent to the exact source document if the claim is queried.

New Project Onboarding

When you take over a project mid-stream — or bring on a new site supervisor — getting up to speed quickly is critical. Alloovium turns weeks of document reading into hours by letting your team ask questions about the full project document set from day one.

Building a project knowledge base

Create a project in Alloovium and upload all the key documents: head contract, scope of works, subcontract packages, approved drawings register, meeting minutes, and any RFI log. Once processed, everyone in your team can query the full set.

Common onboarding questions

  • “Quelles sont les coordonnées du représentant du maître d'ouvrage et ses délégations de signature ?”
  • “Résumez le programme du projet — quelles sont les dates clés et les éléments du chemin critique ?”
  • “Quels lots de sous-traitance ont été attribués et qui sont les sous-traitants ?”
  • “Quelles sont nos obligations de notification si nous rencontrons des conditions de sol imprévues ?”
  • “Quels sont les matériaux approuvés pour le béton structurel ?”

Invite your whole team

Project members can all query the same project simultaneously. An estimator preparing a variation, a site supervisor checking a specification, and a contract administrator reviewing a notice period can all work from the same document set at the same time. Go to Project Settings → Members to manage access.

Dispute Resolution Support

When a dispute arises — over a variation claim, a delay, or defective work — the key is getting the facts documented quickly and finding the contractual basis for your position. Alloovium helps you find contradictions, track a sequence of events across correspondence, and build a clear evidence bundle.

Finding contradictions between contract and correspondence

Upload both the head contract and the correspondence log (email chain, meeting minutes, site instructions). Then ask Alloovium to surface inconsistencies:

  • “L'instruction du maître d'œuvre datée du 15 février contredit-elle le périmètre approuvé dans le contrat ?”
  • “Le maître d'ouvrage a-t-il jamais reconnu le retard par écrit ? Montrez-moi les preuves.”
  • “Comparez les exigences de rectification des défauts dans le contrat avec ce que le maître d'œuvre a prescrit dans l'Instruction de Chantier 47.”

Building a chronology

A chronology is the foundation of any dispute. Ask Alloovium to extract a timeline:

“Établissez une liste chronologique de toute la correspondance relative à la variante d'excavation rocheuse, incluant les dates, les parties et le point clé de chaque document.”

Use the cited response to build your formal chronology. Every fact in the Alloovium answer links back to a source document and page number.

Alloovium is not legal advice

Alloovium surfaces information from your documents and helps you analyse them. For legal strategy and formal dispute proceedings, always engage a construction lawyer.

Handover Package Preparation

Practical completion requires submitting a complete handover package — O&M manuals, as-built drawings, warranties, commissioning records, and test results. Alloovium helps you verify completeness and find gaps before the superintendent does.

Checking what is required

Upload the contract and any handover schedule to Alloovium. Ask:

  • “Quels documents sont requis pour la réception des travaux selon le contrat ?”
  • “Quelles périodes de garantie s'appliquent à chaque système principal — CVC, électricité, plomberie ?”
  • “Y a-t-il des exigences concernant des témoins du maître d'ouvrage lors de la mise en service ?”

Verifying documents are complete

As you compile the handover package, upload the draft O&M manuals and commissioning records and ask Alloovium to check them against the contractual requirements:

“Le manuel d'exploitation et de maintenance CVC soumis le 12 avril inclut-il toutes les sections requises par la Section 23 05 00 du cahier des charges ?”

This cross-check can be run in minutes on each document. Use it to catch gaps before you formally lodge the package with the superintendent.
