For builders and construction companies
Every answer from your project documents, with the page to prove it.
Specifications, conditions of contract and schedules decide what you have to build, and what it costs when you get it wrong. Fennec answers questions from them and cites the clause, so your team acts on the document, not on memory.

The documents your projects run on.
- Tender packs
- Instructions to bidders, forms, volumes and addenda, read as one set.
- Specifications
- Material and workmanship clauses, testing requirements and referenced standards.
- Conditions of contract
- Securities, notice periods, variations, penalties, payment and retention.
- Schedules and BOQs
- Tables read as tables, so line items keep their quantities and units.
- Drawing sets
- Sheets identified from their title blocks, with labels and notes read. Individual dimensions are not transcribed yet.
From the start-up meeting to the site office.
- 01Pre-construction review
- Pull scope, exclusions, testing obligations and key dates into one cited register before the start-up meeting.
- 02Specification lookups during the works
- Ask what the specification requires for a material, method or tolerance, and get the clause rather than a summary of it.
- 03Contract obligations
- Extract notice periods, submission requirements and penalty clauses, so the project team knows what the contract expects of them.
- 04Handover between teams
- The bid team’s register, with its citations, becomes the project team’s starting point instead of a folder of highlights.

Construction company FAQ
Can site and project teams use Fennec?
Yes. Fennec runs in the browser, and accounts are set up for everyone in your organization who needs them. Anyone with access to a document set can ask it questions.
Does Fennec replace our document management system?
No. Fennec reads the PDFs you upload to it; it is not a document control system and does not connect to one yet. Teams upload the documents they need answers from.
Can Fennec check submittals against the specification?
Automated submittal review is not part of Fennec today. Teams use it to find and cite the specification requirements an item has to meet, and review the submittal against those.
Ask your own specification a question.
Bring a specification or contract to the demo and ask it what your team asks every week.
