The "Field Chaos" Problem

Scattered leads from job site walk-throughs and trade shows like CONEXPO vanishing into disorganized spreadsheets and forgotten USB drives

Manual follow-ups on structural engineering bids and MEP proposals eating into critical design review and CAD modeling time

Disconnected data between CRM systems and field reports from Procore or Autodesk BIM 360 causing missed opportunities on prefab component orders

Overloaded inboxes from supplier inquiries on steel rebar specs or CNC machining tolerances pulling civil engineers off critical site assessments

Inefficient targeting of manufacturing clients for heavy equipment fabrication leading to low RFP win rates on industrial plant builds

Wasted ad spend on generic campaigns that ignore site-specific challenges like OSHA compliance or lean manufacturing bottlenecks

Unlock Tangible Gains for Your Firm

Save 15-20 Hours Weekly on Manual Tasks

Save 15-20 Hours Weekly on Manual Tasks: Your team spends less time chasing leads from daily field logs and punch lists, and more on engineering innovations like optimizing rebar detailing. We've seen firms cut email follow-ups by half, freeing structural engineers to focus on Revit model iterations instead of data entry during peak bid seasons.

Boost ROI by 35% with Precision Targeting

Boost ROI by 35% with Precision Targeting: Target high-value clients in construction and manufacturing with AI that analyzes past project data from blueprints and BOMs (Bills of Materials). One firm landed a $2M bridge contract after our system prioritized leads based on similar girder specs and soil reports, turning cold outreach into hot opportunities within 90 days.

Streamline Workflows for Faster Project Wins

Streamline Workflows for Faster Project Wins: Automate from RFP response to contract signing, reducing cycle times by 40% for precast concrete deliveries. No more delays from manual approvals—our system flags urgent manufacturing inquiries on custom tooling instantly, keeping your pipeline flowing like a well-oiled CNC production line.

What Clients Say

""Before AIQ, our marketing was a mess—leads from concrete pour site visits and IMTS trade show booths got lost in endless email threads. Now, the automation pulls everything into one dashboard integrated with our Bluebeam software, and we've closed three extra structural steel contracts this quarter alone. Saved us about 12 hours a week on bid tracking, no joke.""

Mike Harlan

Senior Civil Engineer, Harlan Bridge & Structures Inc.

""We were drowning in manual bid follow-ups for forging clients on turbine components. Their custom setup integrated with our SAP ERP and started personalizing emails based on alloy specs from past projects. ROI jumped 28% in six months for our die-casting line, and our team actually has time for R&D on new extrusion processes now.""

""Honestly, it felt overwhelming juggling Salesforce CRM and field apps like Fieldwire for plumbing installs. AIQ built something that just works—automates lead scoring for commercial HVAC bids using MEP load calculations. We've cut wasted ad spend by 40% and won a major $1.5M hospital retrofit project we almost missed due to delayed RFI responses.""

Common Questions

How does this automation handle variable data from construction sites?

Construction sites throw curveballs—weather delays, changing blueprints. Our custom AI is built to ingest unstructured data like photos and notes from apps such as PlanGrid, then cleans and categorizes it for marketing use. For instance, it can auto-tag leads from a rainy-day site visit and trigger a nurture sequence. We've fine-tuned this for engineering firms, ensuring 95% accuracy in lead qualification, saving you from manual sorting that eats 5-7 hours weekly. It's all tailored to your workflow, so no generic filters that miss nuances.

What's the ROI timeline for implementing this in a manufacturing engineering firm?

You're probably thinking it'll take forever to see payback. Here's the thing: Most clients see initial wins in 4-6 weeks, with full ROI by month three. Take a mid-sized fabricator we worked with—they automated bid follow-ups and cut manual work by 18 hours/week, boosting close rates by 32% on $1.5M projects. We focus on quick efficiencies like auto-personalizing emails to client specs, directly tying to revenue. Costs? It pays for itself through time savings and higher win rates, often 3-5x return in the first year.

Can it integrate with our existing ERP and project management software?

Absolutely, and that's where we shine. Unlike plug-and-play tools that glitch, we engineer deep, two-way integrations with systems like Epicor or Microsoft Project. For an engineering firm handling custom manufacturing, this means pulling inventory data into marketing campaigns seamlessly—say, highlighting quick-turnaround capabilities for a prospect. No more copy-pasting between apps. We've done this for dozens of SMBs, reducing errors by 40% and ensuring your marketing reflects real-time project availability.

How customizable is the system for our specific engineering niche?

Let's be honest, off-the-shelf automation feels like a one-size-fits-all hardhat. We build yours from the ground up, molded to your niche—whether civil engineering or precision manufacturing. We start with your pain points, like nurturing leads for HVAC systems, and craft AI rules that learn from your historical bids. One client in structural engineering got personalized drip campaigns based on seismic zone data, increasing engagements by 45%. It's not a template; it's custom code owned by you, scalable as your firm grows.

What about data security for sensitive project information?

Security is non-negotiable in engineering, where IP like blueprints is gold. We architect with enterprise-grade encryption and compliance (GDPR, SOC 2 ready), hosting on secure clouds or your own servers. For a manufacturing client, we secured lead data tied to proprietary designs, preventing leaks during automated outreach. Access controls ensure only approved team members see client specs. We've audited this rigorously—no breaches in our deployments—and it all integrates without exposing your core systems.

How much does a custom setup cost compared to subscription tools?

Subscription chaos adds up—$500-2000/month for fragmented apps that don't talk. Our one-time build (starting around $15K, based on complexity) plus minimal maintenance gives you ownership, slashing long-term costs by 60-70%. An engineering firm we partnered with ditched three tools, saving $24K yearly while gaining custom features like AI bid personalization. ROI hits fast through 20+ hours saved weekly and higher project wins. We scope it to your budget, focusing on high-impact automations first.
