# OpenProse Construction

Produce construction quantities, scope, specifications, estimates, changes, progress updates and handover decisions from an identifiable project basis. Start with the [OpenProse kernel](../core/README.md), choose a contract, and supply the project documents, intended decision and output boundary it needs. Linked entries are discovery aids, not wholesale adoption.

| Commission | Contract |
| --- | --- |
| Establish the selected project, evidence and authority boundary | [Construction basis](contracts/construction-basis.md) |
| Reconcile drawings, specifications and instructions | [Document reconciliation](contracts/document-reconciliation.md) |
| Measure work and plan material quantities | [Quantity takeoff](contracts/quantity-takeoff.md) |
| Define a complete trade package and its interfaces | [Scope package](contracts/scope-package.md) |
| Develop an assessable specification | [Work specification](contracts/work-specification.md) |
| Build a traceable cost estimate | [Cost estimate](contracts/cost-estimate.md) |
| Resolve buildability and coordination issues | [Constructability coordination](contracts/constructability-coordination.md) |
| Construct a schedule feasible for the supplied resources | [Construction schedule](contracts/construction-schedule.md) |
| Price changed work against an identified baseline | [Change valuation](contracts/change-valuation.md) |
| Analyze time effects and feasible mitigation | [Time impact](contracts/time-impact.md) |
| Compare supplied construction approaches on common obligations | [Method comparison](contracts/method-comparison.md) |
| Update remaining work from actual progress | [Progress forecast](contracts/progress-forecast.md) |
| Produce an integrated planning package | [Planning package](contracts/planning-package.md) |
| Carry progress and design changes through committed materials, cost and resource calendars | [Project update](contracts/project-update.md) |
| Reconcile consumed stock, outstanding orders and remaining material demand | [Material balance](contracts/material-balance.md) |
| Assess inspection evidence, defects, remedies and later verification | [Inspection and disposition](contracts/inspection-disposition.md) |
| Prepare sectional or whole-package handover with a remaining-work forecast | [Handover package](contracts/handover-package.md) |

For a concrete invocation, execute the [fit-out planning commission](tests/fitout/program.md) with a fresh output directory. It computes quantities, costs, a change bridge and feasible schedules from synthetic project records. The [five-percent stock policy](tests/fitout/low-waste.md) is a permitted contract substitution that changes legitimate procurement and cost results. The [assessment suite](tests/fitout/suite.md) challenges supplied results; the [execution trial](tests/fitout/execution.md) commissions fresh work and its assessment.

For work already underway, [Committed lining update](tests/update/program.md) preserves actual work and noncancelable purchases while an invoked second-crew worker develops a faster candidate with its full cost consequences. [Panel handover](tests/handover/program.md) follows a defect through reported repair and reinspection while another unit remains held for missing evidence. Substituting [Whole-package release](tests/handover/whole-release.md) changes delivery recommendations while preserving technical findings. Both commissions accept a fresh output directory and a limit of nine minutes. [Delivery controls](tests/suite.md) define alternatives, defects, missing evidence and a defective evaluator; [fresh execution and assessment](tests/execution.md) requires separate actual attempts. These are teaching specifications and test definitions, not evidence of passed runs or professional certification.

These contracts depend only on the selected core package. Governing project documents, measurement conventions, engineering acceptance and contractual authority come from the caller's selection. Delivering a planning artifact does not itself approve a design, authorize site work or establish compliance with an unselected standard. [MIT License](LICENSE.md).
