No Go – mandatory BGIS RP1/RP4 supplier compliance gap and physical construction/records work dominate; AI can only support ~19% of effort.
Bid call: NO_GO Mandatory BGIS RP1/RP4 supplier compliance is not held; core scope is physical construction and records handling, not AI-agent work; small shop lacks bonding and reference history. AI workability is ~19%, far below majority.
| Deliverable | Mode | AI share | Hours | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Site Assessment and Existing Conditions Report
Inspect the 16th-floor file rooms, document current layout, file volumes, and construction constraints. |
human only | 15% | 80 | Requires on-site presence and physical inspection; AI can only help draft the report after human data collection. |
|
File Digitization and Indexing Plan
Plan for scanning, indexing, metadata, quality control, and off-site relocation of existing files. |
ai assisted | 70% | 100 | AI can generate classification schemas, OCR pipelines, and relocation workflows; human must validate records requirements. |
|
File Digitization and Off-Site Relocation Execution
Physical scanning, QC, boxing, transport, and storage of files prior to construction. |
human only | 10% | 400 | Core work is physical records handling; AI can assist with OCR and metadata after scanning. |
|
Phased Construction/Renovation Delivery
Convert large and small file rooms into approximately 8-9 enclosed offices in two phases. |
human only | 5% | 500 | Physical construction, trades, permits, and site supervision; AI can only support scheduling and documentation. |
|
Consulting Report and Recommendations
Final consulting deliverable summarizing conversion approach, digitization results, and recommendations. |
ai assisted | 60% | 80 | AI can draft most of the report; human consultant must approve and take accountability. |
|
Project Management and Stakeholder Communications
Coordination with BGIS, RP1, contractors, and internal team; status reporting and meeting facilitation. |
ai assisted | 30% | 120 | AI can draft status reports and meeting notes, but client relationship and facilitation require humans. |
|
Compliance and Procurement Documentation
Prepare bid submission, compliance evidence, and contract documentation. |
ai assisted | 40% | 60 | AI can draft documents, but BGIS RP1/RP4 compliance and contract signature are human-only. |
Risks
-
high
Mandatory BGIS RP1/RP4 supplier compliance not held
Mitigation: Confirm whether compliance can be obtained or partnered; otherwise no-go. -
high
Physical construction scope outside core IT/AI capabilities
Mitigation: Would require subcontracting and bonding, which small shop lacks. -
medium
Thin solicitation documents limit bid accuracy
Mitigation: Request full documents from buyer before bidding. -
medium
Short bid window (15 days)
Mitigation: Immediate resource allocation would be needed; still not enough to close compliance gap. -
medium
Off-site records handling and privacy requirements
Mitigation: Define data handling and chain-of-custody; may require security-cleared staff.
