EyeOn Automations

AI consulting for construction companies.

EyeOn Automations is an AI consultant for general contractors, subcontractors, homebuilders, and industrial construction companies. We audit where AI will save your team time, train your people on Copilot, ChatGPT, or Claude using your own documents, and build custom systems when the workflow is the real problem.

You bought your team Microsoft Copilot, pointed them at the built-in tutorials, and expected adoption to happen on its own. It didn’t. The licenses get paid for every month, and the work still happens the old way. That’s the gap I close.

How we work with contractors

Where a construction company usually starts with AI

Before we build anything, we look at whether your team needs upskilling, and if you don’t have an AI policy yet, we help you set one up. You can start with any of these on its own.

01

AI & operations audit

We interview your team, map how work moves, and hand you a prioritized roadmap. Audits start at $3,500. How the audit works

02

AI training

Hands-on Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude training on your own bids, RFIs, and schedules, live online or on-site. Programs start at $4,000. See the training

03

Custom systems

Estimating, scheduling, subcontractor portals, or a full operating system built around how your company runs. See what we build

We work with commercial and residential GCs, specialty subcontractors, homebuilders, industrial construction companies, and water and wastewater infrastructure teams.

The Copilot problem

Rolling out the license isn’t the same as rolling out the tool.

Most construction companies do the same thing: buy Microsoft Copilot for everyone, send a link to the generic training, and assume the team will figure it out. A few people poke at it, most never do, and a quarter later you’re paying for seats nobody uses.

It’s not a discipline problem. Generic tutorials teach Copilot on generic examples, not on your bid templates, your subcontractor records, your RFIs, your schedules. Your team never connects the tool to the job they actually do, so they go back to the way they’ve always done it.

The fix isn’t another video library. It’s someone who understands construction sitting with your team, on your work, showing them exactly where AI saves them an hour today.

What I actually do

Live, hands-on, built around your operation

I train your team on Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude using your own documents and workflows, live online or in person. Each session is scoped for the people in the room. The work they do is the curriculum.

01

Leadership

Where AI actually changes capital allocation, hiring, and competitive position, and where it's hype. What to greenlight and what to ignore.

02

Operations

Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude inside the daily work: estimating, RFIs, submittals, change orders, vendor comms, using your own templates and records.

03

Field crews

Practical, mobile-first use on the jobsite. Voice-to-doc, photo summaries, plan reads, daily logs. No laptop required, no jargon.

Land to close-out

AI is useful where the paperwork is heaviest.

Entitlements, submittals, RFIs, change orders, warranty tickets: the parts of construction that run on documents are the parts AI actually moves.

When training isn’t enough

Sometimes the tool isn’t the problem. The workflow is.

No amount of Copilot training fixes a process that lives in one person’s head and a spreadsheet with 47 tabs. When the workflow itself is the bottleneck, I build custom software around how your company actually runs: estimating, scheduling, project portals, or a full operating system.

That’s the difference between me and a generic AI consultant: I can train your team, and I can build the system. See operating systems.

Where & how

Live online, anywhere in the U.S.

Most of our training runs as live online sessions, so your team can join from anywhere in the country. Book a single workshop, or a multi-week series where each session builds on the last.

Recent virtual work includes the SCGMA Claude training series, a 4-week Claude series for union glass and glazing contractors, and online ChatGPT training for a property management company.

On-site training is available across California, and we travel for it. In Arizona, I ran in-person Copilot training for a team of 20+.

We train on Claude, Copilot, and ChatGPT. Before any sessions, we look at whether your team actually needs upskilling and where. If you don’t have an AI policy yet, we’ll help you set one up. Our FAQ covers training teams outside California and what drives Claude costs up.

Construction AI FAQ

Questions contractors ask about AI

What does an AI consultant for a construction company do?

An AI consultant for construction finds where AI and automation will actually save your team time, gets your people using the tools you already pay for, and builds custom systems when the workflow itself is the problem. At EyeOn that work happens in three ways: an AI and operations audit, hands-on AI training on Copilot, ChatGPT, or Claude, and custom software built around how your company runs.

Where should a construction company start with AI?

Start by finding out whether your team needs upskilling, and set up an AI policy if you don't have one. From there, the best first targets are usually back-office work where the data already exists, like estimating handoffs, RFIs, change orders, and vendor email, before anything in the field.

How much does AI consulting for construction cost?

AI and operations audits start at $3,500. Online AI training programs start at $4,000. Custom builds are scoped and priced per phase. You don't have to buy an audit before training or a build.

Do you work with industrial and heavy civil contractors?

Yes. EyeOn works with general contractors and subcontractors, homebuilders, industrial construction companies, and water and wastewater infrastructure teams, from mid-size operators up to billion-dollar companies.

How do you roll out Microsoft Copilot to a construction team?

Buying the licenses and sending a link to the generic tutorials is where most rollouts stall. We train your team on Copilot using your own bid templates, RFIs, schedules, and records, with sessions built for each group, from leadership to the field, so people connect the tool to the job they actually do.
