CutSheet Clear — First-Pass Product Data Pack for one CSI section

Construction / specialty-trade subcontracting — product-data submittal operations

Audience

US commercial specialty-trade subcontractors (electrical, HVAC/mechanical, plumbing, fire protection), 5-75 employees, submitting product data through GC portals without a dedicated submittals coordinator

Problem

A specialty-trade subcontractor wins a scope and must submit product data section by section under Division 01 §013300 — but with no submittals coordinator, the work lands on a PM already running jobs. Roughly 35% of first-pass submittals bounce, almost always for completeness: an unhighlighted catalog, a missing UL/AHRI/NSF listing, a blank transmittal field. Each bounce is ~$805 and 2-4 weeks.

Offer

On CutSheet Clear, subs stop guessing and start getting a First-Pass Product Data Pack for one CSI section — compliance matrix, highlighted cut sheets, chase list, and filled transmittal, with a specialist QA signature — delivered before the submittal due date. Flat $179 per common section, never hourly.

Operating process

[
  {
    "body": "Send one CSI spec section (plus the Division 01 §013300 excerpt if you have it), the manufacturer cut sheets for the product you intend to furnish, and any certificates you hold. We qualify trade, due date, and private-commercial scope.",
    "title": "Intake: send the section and your cut sheets"
  },
  {
    "body": "The engine pulls the required-items list from the section, OCRs and page-classifies the cut sheets, matches numeric attributes, and drafts the compliance matrix and chase list — every row tied to a source page.",
    "title": "Extract and crosswalk"
  },
  {
    "body": "Rules, not the model, hard-fail any catalog page without a highlight, any missing named cert, any blank transmittal field, or any matrix row without a source page. A hard fail blocks delivery.",
    "title": "Deterministic rules gate"
  },
  {
    "body": "A trade-aware specialist reviews the attribute match and completeness, annotates the highlights, and escalates ambiguous performance language. No pack ships without a specialist QA signature.",
    "title": "Specialist QA"
  },
  {
    "body": "You confirm the pack reflects the product you intend to furnish. We deliver a ZIP with upload instructions for Procore, Autodesk Build (ACC), or email; you submit to the GC portal under your own name.",
    "title": "You attest, then upload"
  }
