Assess the impact of a changed drawing
A revised drawing lands. Let PlanOps review it and raise the queries, then turn each change into a costed, owner-assigned record — before it becomes a disputed claim at final account.
A fully-costed, owner-assigned impact record linked to the changed drawing.
Every change from the revision captured as a typed event, costed with a confidence level, and linked back to the source drawing and its RFIs — defensible at final account.

Steps
Steps marked ⚡ AI task are done for you by a PlanOps AI assistant, run from the Assistant Hub on your project home.
Step 1: Let PlanOps review the revision and raise the queries ⚡ AI task
Point the assistant at the revised drawing. It checks the change against the rest of the project, logs a gap event for each issue it finds, and raises a linked RFI — so you start from typed records, not a blank form.
Run on demand from the Assistant Hub.

Step 2: Log any commercial change the review didn't raise
Not every change is a gap. Where the revision adds scope or instructs new work, capture it yourself as an event, so the variation is on record from the moment you spot it.

Step 3: Classify what kind of change each one is
Set the event type so the change is filed correctly — a variation, an RFI, a delay — and flows into the right reports automatically.
