Module

The spec, the RFI and the model all describe the same door. They don't agree.

Bimiq reduces every indexed document (and the live model) to the claims it makes, then reads each one against all the others. Where two sources contradict each other about the same thing, it shows you both values, tells you which likely governs, and lets you resolve it before the set goes out.

Same door. Three answers.

Three documents that each looked correct on their own, contradicting each other the moment you read them together.

Door D-102

FD30out of date

Bimiq's note. RFI-042 upgraded D-102 to FD90 after the spec was issued; the model still carries the original FD30. The RFI is the newest authoritative instruction. Reconcile the spec and update the model to match.

“60 minutes” and “FD60” are the same answer.

A dumb string match drowns you in false positives and still misses the real ones. Bimiq matches by meaning and normalises units, so only genuine disagreements surface.

And a plain-English requirement can still conflict with a decision: spec calls for galvannealed steel, the meeting approved cold-rolled, even though they share no number at all.

Every source, not just the spec

Your RFIs and consultant reports, checked against what's actually built.

Spec Compliance already checks your specification against the model. This is everything else: the drawing, the RFI, the consultant's report, the email thread, read against each other, and against the model where a document names a specific element.

So when RFI-042 upgrades a door to FD90 and the model still says FD30, that gap has somewhere to surface, instead of turning up as an RFI mid-build.

Reads indexed documents; pulls the model through the Bridge when it's open.

Every conflict has three ways out.

Every conflict carries a confidence score and a best guess at which source governs, so you triage the critical ten before the advisory forty. And once you've resolved one, a re-scan doesn't reopen it.

It supersedes itself

When a newer authoritative source already settles a contradiction, Bimiq marks it superseded rather than nagging you.
