Automated QA/QC for drawing sets

Automate your QA/QC process to ensure flawless drawing sets.

Automate the entire QA/QC process to reduce human dependency, accelerate approvals, and eliminate costly on-site rework caused by drawing errors.

How it works

A hybrid pipeline, not a template matcher.

Get an expert-level review without the wait. AEC NEXT catches errors exactly like a senior checker would, delivering a clear markup report in minutes rather than days.

Built on your standards

ISO 19650, AIA CAD layer guidelines, or your own office standard. Rules are configured once and applied to every set that follows.

Whole-set awareness

Checks run across the set, not sheet by sheet. Cross-references, grid continuity and revision consistency are validated between disciplines.

Files are not retained

Uploads are encrypted in transit and at rest, processed, then cleared. Your drawings are never stored permanently or used to train models.

Rule architecture

Three tiers of checking, switched on as you need them.

Start with the checks that catch the most errors for the least effort. Move up as your team learns to trust the output.

Tier 1 Tier 2 Tier 3 Document integrity — metadata, naming, title blocks, revisions Drawing content — dimensions, annotation, cross-references Multi-discipline — grid overlays and coordination Runs on every upload Runs on every upload On request

Each tier includes everything below it. Nothing is skipped as you move up.

  • Title block fields present and populated on every sheet
  • File and sheet naming validated against ISO 19650
  • Sheet numbering sequential, no gaps or duplicates
  • Revision number and date consistent across the set
  • Drawing index matches the sheets actually issued
  • Scale, north point and project number declared
  • Layer names checked against AIA or office standard
  • Paper size and orientation consistent by discipline
Who it is for

Two people sign off on this. They care about different things.

For developers and executives

Reduce risk, speed up approvals, protect the margin.

An error found on site costs five to ten times more to fix than the same error caught in review. AEC NEXT removes the checking bottleneck without adding headcount.

  • Shorten approval cycles and get to site sooner
  • Cut rework caused by errors that reached the contractor
  • Reduce dependency on a few senior checkers
  • Audit trail on every issue, every set, every revision

For architects and BIM leads

Automate the work you hate. Keep the work that matters.

You did not train for seven years to add up dimension strings. AEC NEXT takes the mechanical part of a review off your desk and hands back a marked-up set.

BIM consulting

The same engine, with our team behind it.

AEC NEXT was built inside a working BIM practice, to solve a problem we had ourselves. Where a client would rather hand over the whole scope, our consultants deliver it — using the platform internally, which is why our turnaround is hard to match by hand.

Scan to BIM and modelling

Discipline models built to an agreed LOD, audited against your BEP before every issue.

Drawing audit and QA/QC

Hand over a set, receive a marked-up issue register reviewed by a senior engineer after the automated pass.

Standards and BEP setup

ISO 19650 implementation, naming conventions, templates and families, and the rule set that enforces them.

Clash detection and coordination

Multi-discipline coordination with issue tracking through to resolution, reported as your client expects.

Drawing production

Construction documentation produced from the model, checked automatically at every revision before issue.

Team training

Practical sessions for design teams on standards, model discipline, and running checks as part of daily work.

Pricing

Subscription plans, billed monthly or annually.

Every plan starts with a 14-day trial. No card required, and a 14-day money-back guarantee if you subscribe and change your mind.

In practice

What changes when the checking is automatic.

Approvals went from five days to two. We are moving projects to site faster, and our contractors can actually read what we issue.

Company

Engineers who got tired of checking drawings by hand.

AEC Next Private Limited was founded to close the gap between heavy construction engineering and software automation. We came out of BIM delivery, not out of a software lab — which is why the platform checks the things that actually go wrong on a project, and why the report reads like something a senior engineer wrote.

We are building for the Indian market first, to standards that travel. ISO 19650 and international naming conventions are supported from day one, because the firms we work with are already working across borders.
