Construction: RFI And Submittal Review with Claude Code: Human Review Queue
A production playbook for RFI and submittal review in construction operations using Claude Code: human review queue, run-scoped inputs, logs, typed results, and artifacts.
Audience: Construction project teams
The problem
Construction project teams need RFI and submittal review to run repeatedly against RFIs, submittals, drawings, specs, change orders, and project notes. In construction operations, the pain is not one good answer; it is repeatability, auditability, exception handling, and evidence that survives handoff.
Implementation path
Split the RFI and submittal review result into automatable fields and review-only exceptions, then send low-confidence cases to a human queue with evidence artifacts attached.
Tradeoffs and failure modes
Human review slows a subset of runs, but it lets the workflow ship before every edge case is fully automated. For RFI and submittal review, the practical test is whether a second run can be debugged, retried, and consumed by a product without reading the raw agent transcript.
