Singapore AEC automation

Automation built for design & construction firms

One repeated workflow. Proven on your real files. A tool your firm owns.

The workflows we automate

Repeated document work, made review-ready.

Start with one workflow where the same project information is copied, checked, reformatted, or chased across files.

01

Tender & RFP responses

days of rework becomes review-ready drafts.

02

BOQ preparation

repeated manual assembly becomes a controlled first pass.

03

Drawing registers

always current, no chasing.

04

Authority submissions

status tracked, deadlines surfaced.

05

Invoice verification

hours of checking becomes exception-led review.

06

Fee proposals

consistent, fast, from your templates.

07

Site reports

field notes to formatted report.

08

CAD/BIM file admin

naming, versions, transmittals kept in order.

Workflow priorities

Which Architecture and Interior-Design Workflows Are Worth Automating First?

Start with work that happens often, repeats in a recognisable way and takes real effort to review or correct. It also needs reliable examples and a person who can approve the result. In architecture and interior design, that may point to proposal, tender and handover documents before design judgement. Assess one workflow at a time. If the source documents or final sign-off are unclear, fix those problems before adding software.

Proposals and capability statements

A proposed system could assemble repeated firm information, approved project evidence and team credentials into a review-ready draft. The pursuit lead would still decide the argument, relevance, fees and commitments, then approve the final document.

Tender and RFP evidence retrieval

A proposed system could match questions to approved case studies, CVs and standard responses. Each claim should keep a link to its source. Missing evidence should be flagged, not invented. Bid strategy, risk terms, pricing and final sign-off remain human decisions.

Other workflows to assess

Specification comparisons, turning meeting notes into actions and assembling handover documents may also contain repeated work. Assess them before assuming they are suitable. Look for reliable examples, understand the cost of an error and name the technical owner who must approve the result.

A practical test before choosing a tool

  • How often does it happen?
  • How much of the work repeats?
  • How much review or chasing does it create?
  • What happens if something is wrong?

Then check whether reliable examples exist and a named person is responsible for approval. Praeco's workflow diagnostic maps the handoffs and helps decide whether to build, make a smaller process change, test the difficult step or stop. Any hands-on test with files, software proof, build or handover is separately scoped and paid.

How it works

Proof before build.

The diagnostic is there to find the right workflow, not to force a tool where one is not needed.

01

Diagnostic

We sit with the person who does the work and map one workflow.

02

Proof

We test automation on your real files before you commit.

03

Build & hand over

A custom tool your firm owns, running on your accounts.

Who this is for

Owner-led AEC teams where senior people still carry admin.

Best fit is a 10–50 person firm with repeated project documents, templates, checks and handoffs.

A recent example

A Singapore design studio brought us a tender-response workflow that consumed days of senior time each cycle.

We mapped it, proved the automation on their past submissions, and handed over a tool that produces review-ready drafts. Their team reviews and refines instead of assembling from scratch.

Trust & proof

Singapore company. Clear diagnostic before any separately scoped proof or build.

  • Praeco Labs Pte. Ltd. is a Singapore-registered company.
  • See what the workflow diagnostic includes.
  • Every proposed build starts with one repeated workflow and real sample files.
  • No client-identifying details are published without approval.

FAQ

Practical questions before a build.

Short answers for firms that want automation without changing how the whole practice works.

Do we need to change our existing software?

No. Praeco tools work around the software you already use — CAD, spreadsheets, email, and your document folders stay as they are.

Who owns the tool after the build?

Your firm does. It runs on your accounts, and you keep it — with or without us.

How long does a build take?

A typical build runs four to six weeks after the diagnostic, starting with a proof on your real files.

What does it cost?

See the workflow diagnostic for the initial assessment. Hands-on proof and build pricing depend on the workflow, and you receive a fixed quote before committing.
