Cost Management FAQs
How does AI cost forecasting work?
Space AI's AI analyzes your current spending patterns, compares them to historical data from similar projects, and considers factors like weather delays, material price trends, and labor availability. It then generates probabilistic forecasts showing best-case, likely, and worst-case final costs β giving you weeks of advance warning on potential budget issues.
Can I track costs by CSI MasterFormat codes?
Yes, Space AI supports full CSI MasterFormat (2018 Edition) cost coding, as well as custom cost code structures. You can track costs at any level of detail β from division level down to individual cost codes β and create custom codes for your specific needs.
How does change order tracking work?
Space AI captures change orders from creation through approval, tracking pricing, scope, schedule impact, and approvals. Each CO is linked to related documents, RFIs, and submittals. The budget automatically updates when COs are approved, so you always see accurate project totals.
