Structural engineering
Make past engineering work useful again.
AI-assisted PDF extraction turns proposal history into an estimating dashboard. Led delivery with subcontracted development.
Analytics across historical proposal and fee data. Private amounts, sample counts and account details are covered. The interface is shown as captured, not as independent validation of the analysis.
The context
A problem worth solving.
Useful estimating context was buried in historical proposal PDFs. AI-assisted extraction makes that information available for research and comparison.
My contribution
What I brought to the work.
Led the engagement through Manifold Engineering, directing the project and managing subcontracted development. Collaborating developers implemented the dashboard and its research tools.
The product
What it makes possible.
01Proposal research+
AI-assisted extraction makes historical proposal PDFs searchable and usable in the dashboard.
02Estimating context+
Explore project fees and hours to inform estimates for new projects.
03Executive briefing+
A separate executive-briefing exploration, distinct from the research dashboard. It was not launched.

Where it stands
The work keeps moving.
Build on the research and estimating workflows as business requirements become clearer. The executive-briefing prototype remains distinct from launched work.
