Drawing Review
Check drawing sets against standards and quality requirements. Nomic's Drawing Review workflow dispatches sub-agents to independently review each page of a drawing set, producing a structured table of verified violations with citations to both the drawing and the standard.

Supported Context
ACC Integration
Sync drawing sets directly from ACC projects
Bentley Integration
Sync drawing sets from Bentley ProjectWise projects
SharePoint Integration
Tag drawing sets and standards in SharePoint
Egnyte Integration
Tag drawing sets and standards in Egnyte
Direct Upload
Upload drawing sets and standards documents directly
Bentley ProjectWise is currently available as a Design Partner Preview. Contact your Nomic representative to enable it.
How to Use
Prepare Your Drawing Set and Standards
Ensure your files are available in Nomic:
Connect an Integration
Use ACC, Bentley, SharePoint, or Egnyte to sync your drawing sets and standards
Upload Files Directly
Upload the drawing set PDF and your internal standards document
Open the Drawing Review Workflow
Navigate to the Workflows tab and select one of the Drawing Review workflows:
Drawing Review — Uses a built-in demonstration set of QA/QC standards. Good for a quick walkthrough of the workflow.
Drawing Standards Check — Bring your own standards document. Upload or select your firm's internal standards PDF alongside the drawing set.
Provide the Drawing Set (and Standards)
When you start the workflow, you'll be prompted to select files:
Drawing Set — The PDF drawing set to be checked. Every page will be reviewed.
Internal Standards — (Drawing Standards Check only) Your firm's standards document in PDF format.
The workflow reads the standards thoroughly, then dispatches independent sub-agents—one per drawing page—to check each page against all applicable standards in parallel.
Review the Output Table
As sub-agents complete their page reviews, violations are added to the Drawing Review table artifact in real time. Each row represents a verified violation and includes:
Drawing citation — A link to the exact location on the drawing page where the issue was found
Title — A short description of the violation
Summary — An explanation of how the drawing violates the standard
Standard citation — A reference to the specific section of the standards document that applies
Status — The current state of the finding
Severity — The severity level of the violation
Discipline — The design discipline the violation falls under (e.g. Architectural, Structural, MEP)
Export the completed table as Excel or JSON for use in your QA/QC process.
Key Features
- Parallel sub-agent review — Each page is independently reviewed by a dedicated sub-agent, enabling thorough coverage of large drawing sets
