Building Commissioning Firm Integrates AI to Scale Construction Quality Assurance

An independent engineering consulting firm is reshaping how construction quality assurance is conducted by integrating artificial intelligence with traditional commissioning practices. Unlike software only inspection tools, Prasino Engineering embeds AI within a licensed engineering workflow, ensuring every finding is technically validated, code aware, and defensible. The approach addresses a persistent industry challenge: the shortage of experienced technical reviewers needed to verify complex building systems before occupancy.

Prasino Engineering has developed a market-ready inspection AI product that automates construction site photo analysis, reducing review time by 60 percent while increasing automated issue detection by 30 percent across pilot projects. Every AI identified observation is reviewed, curated, and issued under the supervision of licensed Professional Engineers, preserving engineering judgment while scaling review capacity. The technology represents a significant shift in how building systems are verified during construction, particularly as projects grow more complex and qualified reviewers become increasingly scarce.

The firm’s founder, George Karras, brings practical field experience in commissioning, forensic troubleshooting, and indoor air quality to guide the company’s operations strategy and client delivery. Karras also leads SiteInspector.AI as Founder and CEO, while serving as President of KX4 LLC, where he delivers electrical safety and arc flash training and compliance services. His focus centers on pragmatic engineering solutions that protect occupant health and reduce lifecycle costs. This field first perspective drives Prasino Engineering’s emphasis on constructibility, maintainability, and long term operational performance rather than checkbox compliance.
