Guides – Streckenheld step by step

Guides to every Streckenheld feature: document reconciliation, BOQ analysis, RFQs, offer comparison, purchase order approval, document inbox and more.

Streckenheld is an AI platform for construction companies and building-material buyers. It automates the tedious, error-prone work around supplier documents, framework contracts, purchase orders and site coordination, so your team can focus on building.

These guides walk you through each feature: what it does, how it works and who it is for. For background on the terms involved, see our knowledge articles.

AI Reconciliation for Invoices, Delivery Notes, and Orders

Automatically match supplier invoices against delivery notes, orders, and order confirmations. Catch overcharges, missing items, and pricing mistakes before you pay.

AI Procurement and Contract Compliance

Turn framework contracts into a live price catalog. Streckenheld checks every invoice and order against contract pricing and payment terms to catch overcharges automatically.

Quote Requests (RFQs) and AI Comparison

Send a single bill of materials to multiple suppliers, collect their offers, and let the AI compare them side-by-side — including offers received outside the system. Accepted offers turn into framework contracts in one click.

Bill of Quantities (BOQ) Analysis with AI

Upload a bill of quantities and let AI extract every position, summarize each section, and flag gaps, risks, and change-order traps before you send it out. Turn a BOQ into a ready-to-send request for quotation in one step.

AI Budget Estimate from a Bill of Quantities

Turn a bill of quantities into a priced budget in minutes. AI prices every position from your own contracts and past offers, falls back to regional market prices, and shows its assumptions — then export it as CSV, XLSX, or GAEB.

Prepare an RFQ and Split It Across Suppliers

Turn a bill of quantities into a request for quotation and send each supplier only the positions you want quoted. Suppliers submit prices or a PDF through a link — no account needed — and every offer lands in one comparison.

Compare Supplier Offers, Negotiate, and Pick the Best

Line up every supplier offer in one price matrix, let AI recommend the best supplier per category, simulate negotiations, and turn the winning offer into a contract. Fair, fast, itemized offer comparison for construction procurement.

Purchase Order Approval and Workflow

Place purchase orders directly with your suppliers, route them through approval, and track delivery status from a single dashboard.

AI Assistant Chat — On the Web, on WhatsApp, and by Email

Ask questions about your contracts, invoices, deliveries, and orders in plain language. The Streckenheld assistant answers from your own data — in the web app, on WhatsApp, or by email at ki@streckenheld.com.

Document Inbox — Email, WhatsApp, and Supplier Integrations

A single inbox for every supplier document. Forward by email, send by WhatsApp, or receive automatically from hundreds of integrated suppliers and retailers.

Analytics Dashboard for Construction Spend

Track expenses, orders, and supplier performance across every construction site. Spot overspend, supplier drift, and seasonal patterns before they hurt margin.

Team Management with Roles and Site-Level Access

Invite your team, assign roles, and scope access to specific construction sites. Site managers, accountants, and owners each see exactly what they need.

Material spend under control, from the first site
