Short definitions of the integration, AI, and industrial-software terms we use across the platform and writing. Useful if you're new to construction software, AI integration, or both.
ChatGPT Actions are OpenAI's mechanism for letting ChatGPT — including Custom GPTs — call external APIs to fetch data or perform tasks during a conversation.
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI tools — Claude, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and a growing list of other agents — connect to external data sources and tools through a uniform interface.
Construction ERP integration is the practice of connecting project-management software (Procore, Autodesk Construction Cloud, Oracle Primavera) with construction-specific ERP and accounting systems (Sage 300 CRE, Trimble Viewpoint Vista, CMiC, Acumatica Construction Edition) so cost codes, commitments, change orders, and actuals stay in sync across both systems.
Data warehouse replication is the practice of copying operational data from source systems (ERPs, project-management tools, GIS platforms) into an analytical warehouse like Snowflake, Azure Synapse, BigQuery, or PostgreSQL so it can be queried for reporting, BI, and AI workloads.
GIS-to-ERP integration is the practice of connecting geographic information systems (Esri ArcGIS, ArcGIS Field Maps, GeoJSON-based stacks) with financial, asset-management, and ERP systems (SAP, Oracle, Sage, Microsoft Dynamics 365) so spatial asset data flows into operational and financial workflows.
