- Schedules, look-aheads and delay analyses
- Daily site reports, inspections and punch lists
- Estimates and bid documents from closed projects
Why AI buyers want them
Project records capture thousands of real coordination decisions between owners, designers and trades. That sequence of question, decision and consequence is what AI buyers find hard to source.
What to check first
- Owner contracts may restrict use of project documents and drawings.
- Architect and engineer drawings may belong to the design firm.
- Remove names, phone numbers and personal details of workers.
You’re likely a fit if
- You have completed projects with records in Procore, Autodesk or similar systems
- Your contracts let you reuse project records, or owners can consent
- Records cover several years and project types
Frequently asked questions
Who owns construction project records?
It depends on your contracts. Contractors usually own their own correspondence, schedules and reports; drawings often belong to the designer or owner.
Do active projects qualify?
Buyers generally prefer completed projects, where the full story from planning to closeout is recorded.
