AI Contract Assistant

We build a custom AI trained on your contract forms, Z-clauses and administration procedures. Your team gets an always-available assistant that knows your specific contracts — clause references, notice templates, quotation structures, programme requirements. Built on your documents, deployed for your team.

  • ·Trained on your firm's contract forms and Z-clause library.
  • ·Knows your standing instructions and administration procedures.
  • ·Always available to your team — drafting notices, surfacing clauses, structuring quotations.
  • ·Deployed under your firm's account; your documents do not leave your control.

How it works

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Thirty-minute call. We see what contract forms you run, what Z-clauses you've standardised, what your administration routine looks like in practice.

  2. 02

    Build

    We assemble a custom assistant on top of your contracts, Z-clause library and administration playbook. Setup fee covers ingestion, structuring, deployment and a team training session.

  3. 03

    Deploy

    Live to your team. Monthly fee covers usage, model updates, and contract revisions as your standards evolve.

03

Live Contract Administration

We act as the employer's contract administrator on retainer. Compensation events assessed against Clause 60.1. Programmes accepted or rejected against Clause 31. Certificates issued in time. Defects logged. Claims answered.

  • ·Monthly retainer or per-project engagement.
  • ·Employer-side only — we do not represent contractors on live projects.
  • ·All notices issued in the contract's own language and timeframes.
  • ·Hand-off package prepared from day one for closeout and final account.

How it works

  1. 01

    Discovery

    Thirty-minute call. Project, contract form, where things stand, what's already on fire.

  2. 02

    Scope

    Monthly retainer with a defined hours envelope, or fixed-fee per-project. Anything beyond the envelope is logged and quoted before it's run.

  3. 03

    Deliverable

    Every notice, certificate and assessment the contract demands — issued on time, in the contract's own language. Closeout pack assembled from day one.

A note on the contracts

Templates that work alongside the official forms.

Setout doesn’t sell the NEC3, JBCC, GCC or FIDIC contracts themselves — those come from their publishers. The template packs are administration and drafting supplements you use with the official contract, not a replacement for it.
