The Dutch construction sector is facing big challenges: projects get stuck, there’s a lack of capacity, and regulations are increasingly complex. According to Cobouw InterGarant Groep sees smarter working methods, AI tools, and better use of specialists as key solutions to help overcome this impasse.

One of the AI solutions highlighted in the article is Struck.

Why Struck?

Large infrastructure and construction projects generate a huge flow of documents — technical requirements, permits, environmental reports, and legal checks. Specialists often spend weeks just reading and assessing these documents. Many of these tasks are repetitive and take valuable time away from their real expertise.

Struck helps by automatically linking relevant case law (jurisprudentie) and regulations to specific cases. This way, specialists quickly know which rules apply to their project and where potential risks lie.

Reliable and Relevant

Unlike general AI tools that search the open internet (and risk outdated or incorrect information), Struck is directly connected to official sources such as environmental plans, the national DSO system, and local policy documents. This makes the platform much more precise and locally applicable — especially important in the legal and regulatory domain.

Benefits for the Whole Chain

By letting AI handle the first screening of documents, Struck allows experts to focus on meaningful work. The result:

• Faster processes – less time wasted on repetitive reading.

• Higher quality – early identification of risks prevents costly delays.

• More confidence – specialists trust that nothing has been overlooked.
  
  

Looking Ahead

As mentioned in Cobouw, InterGarant Groep supports Struck not only in its technical development but also in shaping the content for this highly complex market. Together, we are building smarter ways of working where AI supports — not replaces — human specialists.

In the words of Cobouw: “It’s not about having fewer rules. It’s about making rules understandable and applicable.”

At Struck, we believe AI and human knowledge together can unlock the future of construction: smarter, faster, and more sustainable.
