Sourceline · Construction

Every claim, traced to the clause behind it.

An application of Sourceline. It reads the contract and the site record, answers what you are entitled to and by when, and assembles the substantiation with a page reference on every item. Nothing asserted without a line behind it.

For commercial managers at mid-tier contractors and subcontractors. Private Australian hosting is available. Where it is selected, your data stays in Australia.

Three named workflows

One engine, pointed at the contract that holds your margin.

The system reads the executed contract, the correspondence and the site record, and runs three workflows against them. Each one ties its output back to the page it came from.

Workflow 01

Entitlement Watch

The contract sets notice obligations and time bars. The system reads them, then watches the record for the events that start each clock: directions, delays, latent conditions, payment reference dates.

  • Notice obligations extracted per clause
  • Time bars with the date each one closes
  • Same-day alerts when a trigger event lands
Workflow 02

The Evidence Room

When an entitlement has to be substantiated, the evidence is rarely in one place. The system assembles the chronology and the supporting record into a pack a reviewer, or an adjudicator, can follow.

  • Event chronologies from the record
  • Substantiation packs, assembled per claim
  • Every item page-referenced to its source
Workflow 03

Contract Start Pack

Before the first claim, the system reads the executed contract against the standard form and briefs the site team on the obligations that will bind them.

  • Departures schedule against the standard form
  • Site-team obligation brief
  • Flow-down gap report to subcontracts
How it runs

The contract is read once. The record is read continuously.

You give the system one contract set in a Proof. In production it runs against the live projects, watching the record as it accumulates.

Reads

The executed contract

Special conditions, the standard form they amend, the schedules and the subcontracts. Departures and notice regimes extracted with a reference to the clause.

Tables and clause numbers preserved
Watches

The site record

Correspondence, instructions, diaries and the document control system. The events that start a clock are flagged the day they appear in the record.

Same-day trigger alerts
Assembles

The evidence

When a claim has to be made, the chronology and the supporting documents are already assembled and page-referenced, ready for your commercial team to review and rely on.

Uncertain reads are marked uncertain
The standard

The controls come fitted, not sold.

Many AI pipelines flatten documents into plain text at ingestion. Tables become paragraphs. The clause number detaches from the clause. The chain back to the source page disappears, replaced by a confidence score.

That is acceptable for a chatbot. It is not acceptable for an option deadline, a payment claim, or anything a lawyer or adjudicator might one day read.

Where documents carry the decision, the system runs on Sourcetrace, our document-structure engine. It preserves layout, tables, annotations and page evidence before anything reaches a model.

    Your environment or private Australian hosting where selected. No training on your data.

  • Reviewed

    Named human review points before any output is relied on.

  • Audited

    A log of what the system read, produced and flagged.

  • Honest

    Uncertain answers are marked uncertain. Confidence is reported, not performed.
