Use Case
Submittal Package QA Before GC Turn-In
DeepSigns reviews submittal packages against contract requirements to surface missing attachments, mismatched specs, and unresolved comments before they trigger rework.
Decision Narrative
Why now
DeepSigns reviews submittal packages against contract requirements to surface missing attachments, mismatched specs, and unresolved comments before they trigger rework.
What breaks without this
Firms with low submittal volume and no review bottleneck.
Decision framework
Your PM team sends large submittal bundles to GCs each week.
Submittal rejections are slowing procurement and fabrication.
You need consistent quality checks across project teams.
Recommended path
DeepSigns reviews submittal packages against contract requirements to surface missing attachments, mismatched specs, and unresolved comments before they trigger rework.
Automated checks map every package to required contract artifacts.
Implementation sequence
Run baseline, controlled pilot, and scale phases with explicit owner checkpoints.
Tradeoffs
Teams unwilling to standardize submittal naming and packaging.
Decision Criteria
- Your PM team sends large submittal bundles to GCs each week.
- Submittal rejections are slowing procurement and fabrication.
- You need consistent quality checks across project teams.
- You want to reduce avoidable review cycles with owners and architects.

FAQ
Does this replace PM judgement?

Can we handle vendor-specific formats?
Yes. QA rules can include vendor forms, cut sheets, and custom naming standards.
How fast is package feedback?
Most packages can be triaged in minutes, depending on size and complexity.
