Construction automation that reduces admin overhead, improves control, and keeps projects moving

We build secure, enterprise-grade software that automates construction back-office and project workflows—invoice processing, subcontractor documentation, change orders, approvals, compliance, and reporting—using AI-assisted document processing integrated into your ERP and project management tools.

What we help construction teams automate

High-impact workflows (where ROI is measurable)

Accounts Payable and invoice processing

• Subcontractor and supplier invoice intake (email, portals, scans)

• OCR/AI extraction + validation against rules and PO/contract data

• Approval routing by project, cost code, threshold, and role

• Duplicate detection, exception queues, and audit trails

• Payment readiness and remittance traceability

Change orders and variations

• Digitize change order requests and supporting documents

• Structured approvals, cost impact visibility, and versioning

• Evidence retention and traceable sign-offs

• Automated routing to PMs, QS/estimators, finance, and leadership

Subcontractor compliance workflows

• Collect and validate documentation (insurance, licenses, certifications, safety docs)

• Expiry tracking, reminders, and “no-doc-no-site” gates

• Centralized evidence store and audit-ready records

• Exception routing with ownership and SLAs

Progress claims and payment applications

• Intake and validation of progress claims and supporting evidence

• Automated checks against contract terms and prior claims

• Exception workflow for missing evidence or mismatched amounts

• Standardized reporting across projects and vendors

Site documentation digitization

• RFIs, delivery dockets, inspection forms, photos, and reports

• Document classification and extraction to structured records

• Searchable audit history linked to projects and cost codes

Why SVLcode for construction

Built for projects, controls, and enterprise governance

Construction workflows are complex because projects are unique, documentation is heavy, and approvals must be defensible. We build systems that are:

• Workflow-first: automate the process end-to-end, not just a form

• Exception-driven: queues, ownership, SLAs, escalation, and resolution trails

• Audit-ready: approvals, evidence retention, immutable logs

• Human-in-the-loop: automation supports decisions; your team stays in control

• Integration-first: works with your ERP, accounting, and project tools

• Enterprise secure: least privilege access, encryption, monitoring, governance

• ROI-focused: fewer manual touches, faster approvals, reduced rework and disputes

Typical outcomes

What teams usually improve after rollout

• Reduced admin overhead and fewer manual follow-ups

• Faster invoice approvals and fewer payment delays

• Better cost control through consistent coding and approval trails

• Reduced disputes with complete evidence and traceable decisions

• Improved subcontractor compliance and fewer site access delays

• Stronger reporting visibility across projects, vendors, and approvals

Integrations

Designed to fit into your construction stack

We integrate into the systems you already use, including:

• ERP / accounting systems (AP, payments, cost codes, reporting)

• Project management platforms (projects, RFIs, documents, approvals)

• Email, portals, SFTP/API feeds for subcontractor and supplier intake

• Document storage, identity providers, and internal reporting layers

We build for reliability: idempotent sync, retries, dead-letter handling, and clear system-of-record rules.

Our delivery approach

A staged rollout that minimizes disruption

1. Discovery & workflow mapping – identify bottlenecks, control requirements, and approval paths

2. Pilot build (MVP) – automate one workflow end-to-end (e.g., invoices or compliance docs)

3. Scale & harden – performance, monitoring, security controls, and exception coverage

4. Integrations & rollout – connect systems of record and standardize across projects/entities

5. Continuous optimization – reduce exception rate and expand coverage (change orders, claims, RFIs)

Technology & architecture

Modern stack built for reliability and maintainability

We build with:

• React, TypeScript, Node.js

• AWS, PostgreSQL

• OCR + LLM-assisted components where they materially reduce manual effort (classification, extraction, summaries)

Architecture patterns we use:

• event-driven workflows (queues, retries, DLQs)

• rules engine + human approvals for controlled automation

• evidence retention and immutable audit trails

• role-based access with project/entity scoping

• observability (metrics, alerts, operational dashboards)

Construction use cases we commonly start with

Quick wins that expand into broader digitization

• Supplier/subcontractor invoice automation + approvals

• Docket capture and project linkage

• Subcontractor compliance document collection + expiry gating

• Change order/variation workflow automation

• Progress claims intake, validation, and reporting

• Centralized exception queues and audit-ready reporting

Who this is for

Great fit if you are:

• A main contractor managing multiple projects and subcontractors

• A developer with heavy invoice and compliance workflows

• A construction group struggling with email + spreadsheets + document chasing

• A finance/project team needing stronger controls and faster approvals

• An organization that must keep evidence and decisions audit-ready
