General contractors
Project sites hold RFIs, submittals, meeting minutes, and owner correspondence. A Graph-grounded agent assembles status from files and mail the PM is allowed to see.
CONSTRUCTION · PMs and field operations leads
Project documentation is scattered across mail and SharePoint. Agents make it answerable on site.
General contractors and specialty trades already run projects on Microsoft 365 — SharePoint project sites, Teams channels, and Outlook threads with owners and subs. Copilot Studio agents that ground answers in that project footprint follow the same Graph-grounded, permission-aware patterns Microsoft documents for cross-app knowledge and Teams assistants. Priority surfaces below are where we usually start — not a hard limit on what we can build.
Where we focus in Construction (AEC)
Specialty trades
Trade-specific specs, safety procedures, and punch lists live in shared libraries. Agents answer from those sources inside Teams instead of forwarding PDFs in group texts.
Field connectivity
Field crews already on Teams mobile can query a channel agent for the latest drawing package note or safety procedure — Microsoft’s mobile Teams agent surface applied to jobsite questions.
Microsoft 365
No new field portal: agents deploy into SharePoint, Teams, and Outlook you already license, inheriting project site permissions.
Priority Copilot Studio patterns for Construction (AEC)
These are the highest-leverage starting patterns for Construction (AEC) — not a technical ceiling. Each maps to capabilities Microsoft documents for Copilot Studio, Microsoft Graph grounding, Teams, SharePoint, Outlook, and Power Automate. No invented client names or metrics.
Project SharePoint knowledge agent
SharePoint + Copilot Studio
PMs and supers ask where the latest RFI response or submittal lives. The agent answers from the project library with citations — SharePoint document Q&A as Microsoft documents it for Copilot Studio.
Teams project and field channel agent
Teams + SharePoint
Questions asked in the project channel get answers grounded in that project’s SharePoint content, available on desktop and mobile Teams — Microsoft’s channel-embedded agent pattern.
Outlook owner and sub correspondence prep
Outlook + Microsoft Graph
Before owner meetings, a Copilot Studio agent for Outlook pulls recent mail and linked project files the user can access — meeting-prep grounded in Graph.
How we help
- Ground agents per project site or portfolio library — not the entire tenant by default
- Deploy Teams channel agents for office and field crews already on mobile Teams
- Respect project permission groups so trade partners only see what they should
- Use Power Automate for structured RFI or punch intake when chat is not enough
