Drawing Control Skill — Foreman OS

Overview

The drawing-control skill is the central nervous system for managing construction drawings in Foreman OS. It tracks every revision, incorporates Architect/Engineer directives (ASIs), flags superseded sheets, and ensures the field works from the current set. Drawing management directly impacts quality, safety, cost, and schedule — this skill prevents costly rework by controlling the flow of information from the A/E to the field.

Core Responsibilities

  • Revision Tracking: Maintain complete drawing log with revision history, dates, and change descriptions
  • ASI Processing: Automatically update affected sheets when directives are received; flag superseded revisions
  • Current Set Verification: Generate discipline-based reports of the latest drawing revision for every sheet
  • Field Audit: Compare physical field sets against digital log; alert on out-of-date usage
  • Distribution Control: Track which team members received which revision and when
  • Change Summary: Extract revision cloud data and summarize deltas between revisions
  • Integration Pipeline: Feed current drawing data to RFI prep, daily reports, submittals, and look-ahead planning

1. Drawing Log Data Model

The drawing-control skill stores all drawing metadata in a JSON schema. This provides a single source of truth for the project's drawing package.

2. ASI Processing Workflow

When the Architect or Engineer issues a Supplemental Instruction (ASI), the drawing-control skill manages the intake, revision updates, and distribution.

ASI Receipt & Processing Steps

  1. Receive ASI → Capture ASI number, date received, engineer/architect name
  2. Identify Affected Sheets → Parse ASI document to extract sheet numbers impacted
  3. Update Revision Numbers → Increment revision (Rev 0 → Rev 1, etc.) for each affected sheet
  4. Mark Superseded → Flag previous revisions as superseded with ASI reference
  5. Extract Change Summary → If revision clouds are present, summarize deltas
  6. Cross-Reference ASI Log → Update project-config.json ASI table with drawing link
  7. Generate Distribution Notice → List which sheets changed and who needs new copies
  8. Queue Automatic Re-distribution → Trigger notifications to field team

ASI Tracking Table Template

| ASI # | Date Received | Issued By | Sheets Affected | Description | Status | Distribution Complete | Notes |
|-------|---------------|-----------|-----------------|-------------|--------|------------------------|-------|
| ASI-001 | 2026-01-15 | Smith Architects | A-101, A-102, A-103 | Floor plan revisions for door swing conflicts | Distributed | 2026-01-16 | All field copies updated |
| ASI-002 | 2026-02-05 | Yeiser Structural | S-201, S-202 | Anchor bolt layout modifications | Distributed | 2026-02-06 | Confirmed with steel sub |
| ASI-003 | 2026-02-18 | Davis HVAC | M-101, M-102 | Equipment substitution | Pending | - | Awaiting drawings from vendor |

ASI-to-Revision Mapping

When an ASI requires drawing revisions, the mapping below ensures consistency:

{
  "asi_number": "ASI-001",
  "date_received": "2026-01-15",
  "drawings_affected": [
    {
      "sheet_number": "A-101",
      "previous_revision": "Rev 0",
      "new_revision": "Rev 1",
      "description": "Door swing and furniture layout corrections"
    },
    {
      "sheet_number": "A-102",
      "previous_revision": "Rev 0",
      "new_revision": "Rev 1",
      "description": "Door swing and furniture layout corrections"
    }
  ],
  "distribution_initiated": "2026-01-16",
  "distribution_complete": true
}

3. Current Set Verification

The drawing-control skill generates on-demand reports showing the latest revision of every sheet in the project.

4. Revision Cloud Summary

When new drawing revisions are received, the drawing-control skill extracts and summarizes revision cloud data (if available in PDFs).

Revision Delta Extraction

  "drawing_id": "A-101-001",
  "sheet_number": "A-101",
  "comparison": {
    "from_revision": "Rev 0",
    "to_revision": "Rev 1",
    "change_date": "2026-01-15",

    "affected_systems": ["Doors", "Casework", "Layout"],
    "impact_assessment": "Affects EKD (drywall/framing) and Stidham (casework) scope. Review with subs before framing."
  }
}

5. Drawing Distribution Log

The drawing-control skill tracks who received which revision and when, providing accountability and re-distribution triggers.

Distribution Log Entry

{
  "sheet_number": "A-101",
  "revision": "Rev 1",
  "distribution_round": 1,
  "date_distributed": "2026-01-16",
  "distribution_list": [
    {
      "recipient": "W Principles (Super - Miles Goodman)",
      "role": "Super",
      "method": "email",
      "date_sent": "2026-01-16",
      "email": "miles.goodman@wprinciples.com",
      "confirmed_receipt": true,
      "receipt_date": "2026-01-16"
    },
    {
      "recipient": "Andrew Eberle (PM)",
      "role": "PM",
      "method": "email",
      "date_sent": "2026-01-16",
      "email": "andrew.eberle@wprinciples.com",
      "confirmed_receipt": true,
      "receipt_date": "2026-01-16"
    },
    {
      "recipient": "EKD (Drywall/CFS Sub - Foreman)",
      "role": "Sub",
      "method": "email",
      "date_sent": "2026-01-16",
      "email": "foreman@ekd-drywall.com",
      "confirmed_receipt": false,
      "receipt_date": null
    },
    {
      "recipient": "Stidham Cabinets (Casework Sub)",
      "role": "Sub",
      "method": "email",
      "date_sent": "2026-01-16",
      "email": "office@stidhamcabinets.com",
      "confirmed_receipt": true,
      "receipt_date": "2026-01-17"
    }
  ],
  "re_distribution_required": false,
  "notes": "ASI-001 revision; follow-up call made to EKD on 2026-01-17 to confirm receipt."
}

Automatic Re-distribution Triggers

The skill automatically initiates re-distribution when:

  • New revision issued for a sheet already in circulation
  • ASI affects multiple sheets in one directive
  • Field reports reference superseded revision
  • Submittal review flagged a drawing as outdated

6. As-Built Drawing Integration

When processing as-built or record drawings, the drawing-control skill connects revision tracking data to the closeout documentation pipeline. As-built markups must be reconciled against the current revision of every sheet before project closeout can be certified.

As-Built Data Source

Read plans-spatial.json → as_built_overlay

Per-Sheet As-Built Tracking

Track as-built markup status per sheet in drawing-log.json → as_built_status[]. For each drawing sheet, record the following fields:

Field Type Description
as_built_markup string Status: none, in-progress, or complete
deviations_count number Total deviations from the issued-for-construction drawing
markup_by string Name of person who marked up the as-built
markup_date ISO 8601 date Date the as-built markup was completed
reviewed_by string Name of person who reviewed the as-built markup
review_date ISO 8601 date Date the review was completed

Revision Cross-Reference

Cross-reference as-built deviations against the current revision of each sheet — deviations should reference the latest revision number. If a sheet has been revised via ASI since the last as-built markup, the markup must be re-verified against the new revision before it can be marked complete.

Deviation Cause Linkage

Link deviation causes to upstream change documentation:

  • RFI-directed changes → rfi-log.json (deviations that resulted from RFI responses or field clarifications)
  • CO-directed changes → change-order-log.json (deviations that resulted from approved change orders)

This linkage ensures every as-built deviation is traceable to its authorization source.

Closeout Completeness Check

Flag sheets where as-built markup is still none or in-progress as closeout-incomplete. These sheets must be resolved before the drawing package can be submitted for final owner acceptance. The /drawings status report should include an as-built completeness column during the closeout phase.

Reference

For detailed as-built data extraction rules, see document-intelligence/references/as-built-extraction.md.
