The Challenge

Common knowledge base automation challenges facing trades & construction businesses.

Experienced tradespeople constantly interrupted by apprentices and new staff asking the same questions

Critical knowledge locked in the heads of senior workers who could leave or retire at any time

Safety procedures and compliance checklists maintained in outdated paper manuals that nobody reads

Inconsistent work methods across different crews because procedures are passed on verbally

Implementation

How we implement knowledge base automation for your trades & construction business.

Capture Trade Knowledge

Collect institutional knowledge from experienced tradespeople, supervisors, and office staff. Transform verbal procedures, troubleshooting tips, and safety protocols into structured articles organised by trade, job type, and complexity level.

✓ Tools: Google Docs, Notion, Make

Build Searchable Article Library

Organise articles into a searchable knowledge base covering installation procedures, troubleshooting guides, safety protocols, compliance checklists, and customer FAQ responses. Tag articles by trade category, equipment type, and skill level.

✓ Tools: Notion, Make, Google Drive

Automate Content Updates

Configure workflows that trigger article reviews when building codes change, new products are introduced, or safety regulations are updated. Flag outdated content for review and track article currency across the entire knowledge base.

✓ Tools: Make, Slack, Google Sheets

Optimise Search and Access

Analyse search patterns to identify knowledge gaps and frequently accessed topics. Improve article titles, tags, and descriptions based on actual search behaviour. Ensure field teams can access the knowledge base from mobile devices on site.

✓ Tools: Notion, Google Analytics, Make
