  • Efficient work contract review with AI

    Efficient work contract review with AI

    Master builders are pragmatic doers whose main focus is on the realisation of construction projects. Legal expertise is often not their strong point. Nevertheless, the regular conclusion and careful examination of contracts for work is essential. This important step is often neglected due to high legal costs, which can result in unfavourable contractual conditions for construction companies and high losses in the event of a dispute.

    Introduction of the new service
    To counteract this problem, SBC is now offering its members an innovative solution. Work contracts can now be reviewed for a flat fee – regardless of the scope of the contract or the number of clauses. This service is made possible by the use of artificial intelligence.

    Cooperation with Legartis
    In cooperation with the Zurich-based company Legartis, SBC has developed a platform on which members can upload their contracts for work and general terms and conditions. The SBC’s legal department checks the documents using the specialised software and provides well-founded feedback within a maximum of 48 hours.

    How the AI-supported review works
    The AI model has been trained with thousands of contracts for work and labour and can therefore recognise correlations and highlight deviations regardless of the wording. Members can also define individual specifications, for example for special conditions with clients. Simon Lüscher emphasises: “Our members can massively reduce their legal risks and bring clarity to the jungle of agreements with a precise work contract review.” With this new service, SBC is taking a significant step towards digitalisation and supporting its members in minimising legal risks and concluding contracts more securely. The cooperation and the use of artificial intelligence enable a fast, inexpensive and effective contract review that is unrivalled on the market.

    BKW launches digital platform for energy suppliers

    With its new digital platform Energy Business , the Bern-based energy and infrastructure company BKW wants to give Swiss energy providers support in four areas, according to a press release : cyber security, law and regulation, innovative products for end customers and customer service. For this purpose, it launched the e4u platform at the beginning of November.

    The energy suppliers are facing a demanding future, it is said there. “That is why we want to team up with one clear goal: Economic success through scaling, synergies and the use of tried and tested solutions. We believe that we can only achieve this if we work together. ”With this, BKW is committed to a long-term partner strategy with other energy suppliers in Switzerland, she writes in her press release.

    In a first phase, BKW is offering service packages on the platform that give other energy suppliers access to their tried and tested skills. In parallel, she is planning various educational activities. In addition, it also offers "individualized advisory services for complex needs".

    Both energy suppliers and large end consumers could use the platform to procure their energy in a single system. The platform itself was developed in close cooperation with BKW customers.
