ADELAIDE · CIVIL & CONSTRUCTION

AI onboarding for Adelaide construction teams.

AI is easier to assess when you try it on the work sitting in front of you. We help owners and teams choose a suitable setup, work through real tasks and learn how to check the result.

Built around the way your team works.

Work Site AI is based in Adelaide and focuses on civil contractors, consulting engineers, construction SMEs and suppliers. Ben Lewis brings experience in geotechnical engineering, technical sales and building systems for his own business, Kontain. Local sessions or remote support can be discussed around the work involved.

Choose a practical starting point

Review recurring emails, document comparisons, quote preparation or project records. Choose one task where the team can compare an AI-assisted process with its existing method.

Set up accounts and working rules

Work in your business-owned OpenAI or Anthropic Claude account. Agree information-sharing rules, named access and approval steps before using live client or project data.

Train with your own work

Practise providing context, breaking down a task, checking source material and recognising unsupported answers. Build reusable prompts and templates that suit the people doing the work.

Leave a process people can use

Document the workflow, its limits and who checks the output. Decide whether training is enough or whether a connection, automation or custom app would make the next improvement.

ILLUSTRATIVE WORKFLOW

Example: turn a project email into a checked action list.

  1. 01

    Use an authorised sample email and define the information needed.

  2. 02

    Extract the dates, responsibilities and missing information into a consistent template.

  3. 03

    Check each item against the source before adding it to the project record.

Check whether it makes a difference.

Compare preparation time, missed actions and the amount of correction needed. Keep the workflow only if it makes the job easier at an acceptable quality.

Agree the checks before the build.

AI training sits alongside your existing IT security. Your business retains its accounts; we use separate, limited access where needed. Your own IT provider should cover devices, email security, access, backups and recovery.

The proposal sets out deliverables, account access, testing, handover and support. Read the security and privacy safeguards and service terms.

Practical questions.

Do we need to understand AI already?

No. Start with one familiar task. The aim is to build useful habits and confidence without asking the team to learn every new tool.

Do we have to choose OpenAI or Claude?

We focus on these platforms and usually suggest one primary platform to keep administration and training consistent. The right choice depends on the work, integrations, plan and data requirements.

Does training mean committing to a software build?

No. Training-only work can be scoped separately. The initial consultation and a short opportunity outline for suitable enquiries are free; any paid work is quoted before it starts.
