Practical field lab for construction and engineering teams to test AI on RFI and variation workflows, assess risks, and map next steps.
About this Event

AI can help reduce administrative workload, but in construction and engineering, it needs to work within clear safety, approval, and document-control boundaries.

RFIs, variations, controlled documents, and approval processes can take up significant time and create pressure across project teams. This practical Field Lab gives construction firms, engineering consultancies, and trades businesses a structured way to explore where AI could support these workflows without replacing professional judgement or established responsibilities.

You will examine common workflow pressures, explore where AI can assist, and test practical scenarios using fictional RFI and variation material. The session focuses on practical AI integration, workflow improvement, risk management, document control, and responsible use.

Rather than simply discussing what AI could do, you will leave with a clearer view of which opportunities are worth testing and what should remain firmly under human control.


Who this is for

This Field Lab is suited to:

  • Construction firms and contractors
  • Engineering consultancies
  • Trades and specialist businesses
  • Project and contract teams
  • Document control and administration staff
  • Office and operational teams supporting construction projects

A mix of site and office participants is encouraged.


What we will do together
  • Map key pressures: Identify where administration, documentation, scheduling, margin, and compliance create opportunities for improvement.
  • Set practical boundaries: Clarify where AI should not replace WHS responsibilities, professional sign-off, approval authority, or controlled-document processes.
  • Explore RFI and variation workflows: Test practical AI support using fictional project materials.
  • Assess opportunities: Score potential use cases based on value, feasibility, and risk.
  • Plan the next step: Prioritise an opportunity and develop a practical 30-day action plan.

What you will take home

You will develop practical resources during the session, including:

  • A construction and engineering problem brief
  • A controlled-document and approval matrix
  • A tested AI workflow canvas
  • A scored opportunity map
  • A practical 30-day AI integration plan

Good to know

This is a practical, sector-focused session, not a general introduction to AI.

All hands-on activities use fictional RFI and variation examples rather than confidential project or client information. Existing WHS duties, professional judgement, contractual authority, and document-control requirements remain with the appropriate people.

No advanced technical experience is required. Bring your knowledge of the workflows and administrative challenges your team deals with every day.

==========================================

Refund, Cancellation and Transfer Policy

1) Your legal rights: Our services come with guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded. Nothing in this policy limits them. This policy applies to tickets for this event only.

2) If we cancel or materially change the event: If we cancel this event, or change its date, content, format or delivery mode so materially that it no longer meets your reasonable needs, you can choose either:

(a) a full refund of the total you paid, including Eventbrite fees, to your original payment method; or

(b) a transfer to a later event of your choice.

We do not deduct any fee from these refunds. Minor changes, such as a substitute presenter, a running-order change, or a different room at the same venue, do not entitle you to a refund under this clause. If you think a change is material, email and we will decide within 5 business days. We will give reasons if we decline, and your legal rights are unaffected.

3) If you cannot attend: Tickets are non-refundable for change of mind. If you tell us at least 14 days before the event, you may move your ticket once to another session, subject to availability. It has no cash value.

4) Transferring your ticket to another person: You may transfer your ticket to another person up to 7 days before the event, by emailing with the new attendee’s name and email, or via Eventbrite’s transfer tool where enabled. Tickets must not be resold for more than you paid. We set this cut-off because we confirm final attendee numbers with the venue and caterer, and prepare name badges and course materials, 7 days before each event.

5) No-show or leaving early: No refund or credit is available if you do not attend or leave part-way through, except as required by law.

6) Refund requests: Email with your name, order number and the clause you rely on. We acknowledge requests within 5 business days and decide them within 10 business days. Approved refunds go to the original payment method and normally appear within 5 to 10 business days.

7) Conduct: We may refuse entry or remove an attendee who endangers others or seriously disrupts the event. No refund is due for that. This does not limit your legal rights.

8) Tickets sold through Eventbrite: Eventbrite processes tickets. Its refund tools and terms apply in addition to this policy, and we will honour the rights set out here. For advisory, training or consulting under a separate written agreement, that agreement’s terms apply together with clauses 1 and 2.
