Agentic AI for lighting specification and tender evaluation

An AI agent reads manufacturer datasheets and supplier proposals, links every value to its source and proposes verdicts. A qualified engineer confirms each one before it reaches a client.

The challenge

Every project can involve hundreds of luminaires, each with a datasheet in its own layout, units and vocabulary. At tender, every supplier offer must be checked field by field against the specification, across options and resubmissions. The firm needed to scale that reading and judgement without weakening professional accountability.

What we did

  • One governed workflow for specification and tender work. The agent reads datasheets and supplier proposals against maintained field definitions and extraction guidance.
  • Every extracted value records its source page and region, so an engineer goes straight to the evidence. Missing values stay visibly marked for review.
  • Written rules for tolerances, equivalences and deviations. The agent proposes field-level verdicts with a short reason; a qualified designer reviews, overrides and confirms.

What changed

  • Engineers review values instead of retyping them from PDFs.
  • Every proposed verdict follows the same written rules, with a reason a professional can inspect and change.
  • Confirmations and versioned resubmissions record who approved what, when, and how the judgement changed.
