01 / AI ONBOARDING THAT LEADS SOMEWHERE

Start with your team.
Grow into your systems.

Learn what AI can do, use it on a real task and build the confidence to keep going. Practical onboarding comes first. Automation and custom development follow where they make sense.

01UNDERSTAND & LEARN

Get your team started.

Find useful applications in the work you already do. Learn how to ask better questions, give clear instructions and check the result.

  • Suitable tools and account setup
  • Practical training using your tasks
  • Clear rules for business information
02APPLY & IMPROVE

Make one task easier.

Work through a real email, drawing, quote or site record. Build a reusable workflow and compare it with your current process.

  • Templates, prompts and review steps
  • Time, quality and cost checks
  • Connections to supported systems
03BUILD & TAKE OWNERSHIP

Keep the capability in-house.

Add an app, automation or custom system when it solves a clear problem. Give your team the access and understanding to use it.

  • Tools built and tested with your team
  • Editable workflows and instructions
  • Agreed maintenance and support

Considering a major software build? Before committing to a $100,000 project, test whether a focused in-house build can solve the first problem.

Scope, software and support costs agreed upfront.

Cost depends on scope, complexity and integrations. A full business suite needs staged delivery and testing; the first build helps establish the right path.

02 / APPS, AUTOMATION & CONNECTED SYSTEMS

Put AI to work.
Across the whole business.

Start with a task, a bottleneck or an idea you have never had time to build. We can improve a workflow or create a practical tool around the way your team works.

01 / APPS FOR THE FIELD

From site record
to useful output.

Phone apps for soil logs, inspections, photos and daily records. Capture information on site, then produce the PDF or office record from the same data.

  1. 1Forms built around the task
  2. 2Photos, samples and review steps
  3. 3PDF outputs and project records
02 / EVERYDAY AUTOMATION

Less copying.
More connected.

Put email, receipts and business records to work. Extract the useful details, match the job and pass checked information to the systems your team uses.

  1. 1Capture documents by phone or email
  2. 2Match records and flag exceptions
  3. 3Connect supported company systems
03 / CUSTOM BUSINESS SYSTEMS

Your process.
Your platform.

Build a customised suite around the way you work: CRM, estimating, quotes, jobs, stock, POs, receipts, invoicing and client access.

  1. 1Link customers, quotes and job records
  2. 2Connect stock, POs, receipts and delivery
  3. 3Reconcile invoices and payment status

DRAWING PRODUCTION & REVIEW

Better drawings.
Less manual work.

Learn how to prepare and improve detailed drawing drafts, update repeated details and annotations, and compare revisions faster. Turn checked design methods into tools your team can use.

Built around your CAD tools, with dimensional checks and engineering review before issue.

Examples to scope around your process. Engineering checks, approval steps and existing accounting records are built into the plan.

03 / WHAT ELSE COULD WORK BETTER?

From the worksite
to the next enquiry.

Explore 26 practical applications for civil and construction teams. Choose a task to see how it could work and what we would measure.

Capture information where the work happens and use it again in the office.

FROM YOUR SHEET TO THE FIELD

Record the site once. Produce the log from your phone.

Convert existing soil, borehole, test-pit or site inspection sheets into structured phone or tablet forms. Capture depths, observations, samples and linked photos, then generate a project-formatted PDF from the same record. Agree mandatory fields, validation, review and issue status with the responsible engineer.

WHAT WE’D MEASURE

Repeat entry, missing fields and time from logging to PDF

Talk through this idea
ILLUSTRATIVE WORKFLOW

Phone entries → checked record → PDF log

Handwritten notes and phone photos have to be typed into the logging sheet again back in the office.

  1. 01Enter field observations and link photos
  2. 02Check required fields and review the record
  3. Generate the log PDF and save the project data

A usable field record with the source data kept for later reporting.

These examples show workflows we can assess together. Feasibility, permissions, ongoing costs and support are checked before agreeing the work.

04 / INDUSTRY EXPERIENCE, LOCAL SUPPORT

Practical support.
From inside the industry.

Ben LewisAdelaide, South Australia

The focus is useful systems, better decisions and a team that knows how to use the tools.

Work Site AI is the AI onboarding and custom systems service by Kontain. I run Kontain and founded GeoKonect. My background spans geotechnical engineering, technical sales and business development — work where the details, the numbers and the follow-through matter.

I’ve used AI and custom development to turn spreadsheets into usable platforms, alongside quoting tools, document comparisons, contact-data clean-up and website content. The aim is practical: make information easier to use, reduce repeat work and give the team more control.

05 / A CLEAR STARTING POINT

Start with a conversation.
Build what makes a difference.

A focused first project, an agreed scope and clear costs. Build further when the results justify it.

01 / FIND THE OPPORTUNITY

Initial chat & outline

Free

No obligation to proceed

Talk through the work your team repeats and where better tools could help.

  • A 20–30 minute initial call
  • Two or three practical opportunities
  • A short proposal where there is a fit

Detailed investigations, audits and system design are separately quoted.

Arrange a conversation

03 / SUPPORT & IMPROVE

Ongoing support

From $1,100/ month

Including GST · $1,000 + GST / month

A defined allowance for support, adjustments and improvements as your needs change.

  • Agreed tasks and monthly allowance
  • Clear service and response arrangements
  • Larger changes quoted separately

Where required and agreed. Training-only engagements can be scoped without a retainer.

Talk through ongoing support

All prices are in Australian dollars. Software subscriptions, additional users, API usage and hosting are additional unless included in your proposal. A two-day development allowance is a scoping guide; the delivery programme also needs to allow for preparation, testing and rollout.
