IT Brief Ireland explores how construction claims are shaped long before disputes arise, and how better site data capture is changing the outcome.

Scopey Onsite’s Gillian Laging shares why AI alone will not reduce construction disputes unless project documentation improves.

Scopey Onsite Co-Founder and COO Gillian Laging recently published an article exploring the relationship between artificial intelligence and construction disputes. The piece appeared in ITBrief and TechNews, highlighting the importance of documentation as AI becomes embedded across construction workflows.
As AI tools increasingly support documentation, communication and contract administration, the industry is beginning to examine how automation will affect the quality of the records that construction contracts rely on.
The article outlines why disputes often begin with documentation. On complex construction projects, operational decisions are frequently communicated through quick calls, messages and informal conversations between site teams. While these exchanges keep projects moving, they can make it difficult to maintain a reliable evidentiary record.
Where entitlement to additional time or compensation depends on records that withstand scrutiny, gaps in documentation can weaken a contractor’s commercial position and lead to escalation.
Gillian discusses why the long term value of AI in construction will depend not only on efficiency, but on whether these systems strengthen the quality and reliability of project records that ultimately determine commercial outcomes.
