Our AI-powered X-Ray feature allows you to scan thousands of documents in your project. You can scan Word documents, PDFs, drawings, DWGs, and other types of docs with ease.

How Do You Navigate To The X-Ray Feature?

1. This is really simple. All you need to do is choose a desired project.

2. Then, click on the X-Ray feature that will be displayed on the top of the screen right next to Drawings and Documents. 

Once you are there, you can click process documents. The time required to process the documents may vary, depending on the amount of documents you have in your project.

We will notify you via email once the processing is finished.

Be mindful that only one main method of measurement can be selected for processing the documents. Once you click on Process Documents, this pop up will appear.

3. When BidWork finishes the processing, you will see the method of measurement that you can choose.

4. BidWork has many items which X-Ray uses to find matching keywords and phrases in your documents, narrowing down your search.

In our example shown here, we have a mention of Bird/Vermin Control. If we click on the N Furniture option, X-Ray will provide us with a few options, one of which is Bird/Vermin Control.

5. Or you can search for terms manually by typing them into the search bar.

You can search for fd60, for example.

This will provide you with the documents where that term is mentioned. 

7. When you click on the link, you are navigated to the document. Also, the system is smart enough to show you the exact page and paragraph where that term is located.

This can be quite useful when the document has 30 pages, for example.

Simply click on the right arrow next to the phrase you are searching for and the X-Ray will take you to the next mention of that word in the document.

You can also use the X-Ray Spotlight feature in order to see the CDP, Social Value, and Environmental and Sustainability for your Project.
