Opportunity

JAMCO America relies on its extensive knowledge-base of products and solutions when responding to RFPs. The ability to quickly access and leverage their vast catalog of products, solutions and technical specifications is critical to winning new contracts in this highly competitive industry. With the advent of Generative AI, JAMCO leadership saw an opportunity to give their proposal engineering teams faster and broader access to thousands of pages or engineering drawings of parts and assemblies in the RFP response workflow, resulting in better, more competitive proposals with less business risk for JAMCO. Augmented AI Labs worked closely with the business team to identify the opportunity and to validate the technical approach to the solution.

Solution

Augmented AI Labs developed, deployed and now manages the "JAMCO Drawing Explorer," a specialized AI solution that enables JAMCO's RFP response team to quickly navigate and leverage their vast knowledge-base of products and solutions previously locked up in thousands of PDF drawings sets and specifications. The solution indexes thousands of pages of technical drawings, part numbers, descriptions and other metadata allowing proposal teams to search with natural language description or images to construct bills-of-materials (BoMs) for costing and availability through the JAMCO ERP system. Drawing Explorer was designed with an intuitive interface that allows the proposal engineering team to easily access the depth of JAMCO's expertise and to collaborate when bidding on new programs.

Expected Outcome

JAMCO America expects Drawing Explorer to streamline their RFP response process, making it both faster and more accurate. Other engineering departments within JAMCO have begun utilizing Drawing Explorer for workflows that rely on the same knowledge base, extending the value of the solution throughout the organization. Augmented AI Labs is now working closely with JAMCO America to drive adoption and quantify the business benefits.
