Facades that match the image criteria
Facade, showroom, and signage sheets are checked against the current facility image criteria before they go to the manufacturer.
Enterprise plan review for auto dealerships and service centers
For Fortune 500 and national dealership groups and automotive service networks building, expanding, and reimaging stores. Catch the lift with no pit detail, the trench drain that skips the separator, and the facade that drifts from the image criteria before construction.
Why teams use Groundbook
Facade, showroom, and signage sheets are checked against the current facility image criteria before they go to the manufacturer.
Lifts, fluid reels, exhaust, drains, and booths are checked against structure, power, and ventilation, so bays are usable the day they open.
Each store is checked against its manufacturer's criteria and your group's standards, across every franchise you hold.
AI plan review for auto dealerships and service centers checks the showroom, service, collision, and site drawings against each other and against the manufacturer's facility criteria, your group's standards, the specifications, and the code at the site. Groundbook flags possible conflicts with links to the sheets, so the dealer group's construction team, the architect, and the engineers can resolve them before permit.
How it gets there
Each row is a place where the documents for one site often disagree. The review compares them and returns each possible conflict with the sheets it came from.
| Area | What is compared | A question a finding raises |
|---|---|---|
| Service bays and lifts | Lift locations and types against the slab design, the power plan, and the equipment schedule | Does each in-ground or two-post lift on the equipment plan have the slab or pit detail and the circuit its vendor data calls for? |
| Fluids and compressed air | Oil, coolant, and air reel locations against the lube piping, the tank room, and the equipment schedules | Do the fluid reel locations on the equipment plan match the overhead drops on the lube piping drawings? |
| Drainage and separators | Trench drains, floor drains, and oil-water separators against the plumbing and civil sheets | Do the service-bay trench drains pass through the oil-water separator before they reach the sanitary sewer? |
| Ventilation and exhaust | Vehicle exhaust extraction and repair garage ventilation against the mechanical sheets and the code at the site | Does the mechanical plan provide the repair garage ventilation the code requires, and is exhaust extraction shown at every bay? |
| Paint booths and collision | Spray booth, mixing room, and frame machine locations against fire protection, electrical area classification, and NFPA 33 notes | Is the spray booth shown with its own sprinkler protection and the hazardous-location electrical classification around it? |
| Image program and showroom | Facade, showroom, and customer lounge sheets against the manufacturer's facility criteria | Does the entrance portal on the elevation match the dimensions and finishes in the current facility image criteria? |

In the program
Upload the manufacturer's facility criteria and your group's standards. They become the references each store set is checked against.
Run a review when the architect issues the set. Findings come back in 20 minutes to 24 hours, each linked to the sheet.
Add lift, lube, exhaust, and booth vendor drawings as references so the review checks the building set against them.
Assign findings to the architect, the MEP engineer, or the equipment vendor, and export a report or marked-up drawings for the next issue.
Enterprise
The review is the same on every plan. Enterprise changes how you buy it, sign in, connect it, and get help.
Volume pricing for programs reviewing 500 or more projects a year, or prepaid credits for up to 15% off. Every review shows its price before you pay.
SSO and MFA, an audit trail, granular access levels, and on-prem or US hosting. Encrypted, never used to train models, and an NDA on request.
Import from Autodesk Construction Cloud (including Revit sheets), SharePoint, Egnyte, ProjectWise, Box, and more, and send findings into your own systems with the REST API, CLI, or a custom integration.
A direct line to our team for onboarding, your review checklists and standards, code sources, and questions about findings.

Questions, answered
Yes. Upload the criteria document as a reference with the store set. The review flags where the facade, showroom, and signage drawings disagree with it, with links to the sheet and the criteria page.
Yes. Include the service, collision, and equipment sheets and any vendor drawings. The review compares lifts, drains, ventilation, and booths across the architectural, structural, MEP, and fire protection sheets.
Programs reviewing 500 or more projects a year get volume pricing. Smaller programs can buy prepaid credits for up to 15% off. Every review shows its exact price before you pay, and the first project is free.
No. Groundbook surfaces possible issues with links to their sources. The architects and engineers of record, your own team, and the authority having jurisdiction remain responsible for every decision.
On AWS in the United States by default, or on-prem for programs that need it, encrypted at rest and in transit. Project data is never used to train models and is visible only to the people you invite. SSO and MFA, an NDA, and security questionnaires are available on request.
