description	Automate as-built documentation and digital handover for construction. Compile project records, generate O&M manuals, create asset databases, and ensure complete project closeout.

As-Built Documentation

Overview

This skill implements automated as-built documentation and digital handover for construction projects. Compile accurate records, generate operation manuals, and ensure complete documentation for facility management.

Capabilities:

• As-built drawing management
• O&M manual generation
• Asset data compilation
• Warranty tracking
• Document organization
• BIM-to-FM handover
