Business Case: Adopting Piramade

Unlocking the cumulative intelligence of our engineering firm

Prepared for: Your firm (0–10 employees)

Executive summary

Our firm already owns years of high-value engineering knowledge — calculations, drawings, reports and specifications — abandoned inside hundreds of legacy project folders. Piramade transforms these past deliverables into a searchable, trusted knowledge base so our teams design faster, safer, and with less rework. It connects securely and read-only to our existing storage with no file migrations.

Piramade is an AI-enhanced engineering precedent platform. It transforms a firm’s past deliverables into a living, searchable knowledge asset. The asset becomes more valuable over time as the firm grows and AI capabilities accelerate.

How it works

  1. 1Connect. Piramade connects securely to our existing project storage (local servers, SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive and more). Files stay in place; no migrations.
  2. 2Process. Every project is automatically processed, classified, summarised, and indexed by AI.
  3. 3Leverage. Engineers search, filter, and retrieve precedent across the entire firm in seconds — and click straight through to the original file.

Piramade fits inside our existing systems and keeps us in control: no migrations, files remain in place, security and permissions respected, and no workflow disruption.

Why approve Piramade

  • Leverage AI: Organise firm data to harness accelerating AI capabilities, backed by the foundation of the firm’s engineering experience.
  • Increase productivity immediately: Reduce reinvention and duplicated effort across teams.
  • Preserve institutional knowledge: Retain critical engineering experience before it leaves with staff.
  • Improve quality and safety: Reuse proven solutions instead of starting blind.
  • Support lower-carbon design: Build on prior optimised solutions instead of re-deriving them.
  • Unlock new value: Apply knowledge from completed, already-billed projects to new work.
  • Trusted client partner: Ensure every engineer can draw on the full depth of the firm’s past experience, not just their own.
  • Improved employee experience: Empower engineers to focus on high-value activities.

Data security

  • Our data is never used to train AI models — a contractual guarantee from the Piramade providers.
  • Our data is never shared. Encryption keys and storage are isolated to our organisation, so no other organisation can access our data.
  • Our data cannot be modified. Piramade has read-only access to our files and can never edit, delete, or alter anything in our source systems.

Investment

Pricing starts from AUD $48 employee/month. Pricing is dependant on the firm's digital legacy size and composition. Enterprise pricing is available. Subscription is paid annually, in line with most engineering software.

The cost of Piramade is typically less than one billable hour per month - we are confident that Piramade delivers time savings and value that far exceeds this cost.

The platform is easy to use (browser based) and can be explained within minutes; no employee training downtime is needed.
