Six specialist agents. Deployed in two weeks.
Nova AI is not a general-purpose AI tool. It is a suite of six specialist agents, each configured for a specific project intelligence function and each deployable against your live programme data without an IT project.
Nova is live in production with three UK clients
Configured, not generic.
Configured, not generic
Each agent is configured against your actual project data: your schedules, your procurement registers, your QA records. Not a demo environment.
Live in two weeks
From first engagement to live deployment in two weeks. No lengthy procurement, no IT infrastructure project, no change-management programme.
A production system
Nova is live in production today with UK engineering businesses. This is not a pilot.
No IT department required
Deployment is handled entirely by the Scotia PEP team. Your IT department does not need to be involved.
Six agents. Each built for a specific job.
Schedule Risk Agent
Reads the programme and tells you which activities are about to eat their float.
Continuously compares the programme baseline with actual progress, finds emerging delays and models their knock-on effect. Early warning reports give project managers the lead time to act before a two-day slip becomes a six-week overrun.
Outputs
- Weekly schedule risk report with traffic-light status
- Critical path threat identification and impact modelling
- Float consumption tracking across all activities
- Automated early warning notifications
Sectors
Procurement Delay Agent
Watches supplier lead times against the dates the programme actually needs, and flags the ones that will bite.
Procurement is the most common cause of slippage in heavy industry. This agent checks your procurement register against supplier commitments, flags at-risk items and models the schedule impact, so you can expedite or resequence before it is felt on site.
Outputs
- Live procurement register with risk status by item
- Supplier lead time variance tracking
- Schedule impact modelling for delayed items
- Expediting priority list updated weekly
Sectors
QA Documentation Agent
Builds quality records as the work happens, so the pack is ready when the job is.
Automates inspection records, test certificates and compliance documentation, cutting the admin burden on your quality team and removing the documentation backlog that delays handover.
Outputs
- Automated inspection record generation
- Compliance traceability matrix, live and auditable
- Handover documentation package compilation
- Non-conformance tracking and close-out reporting
Sectors
Production Engineering Agent
Works through fabrication sequence and resource so the shop floor is not waiting on a decision.
Analyses your fabrication or construction sequence, finds ways to use resources better and reduce idle time, and presents alternative sequences with their schedule and cost effects, in hours rather than weeks.
Outputs
- Fabrication sequence optimisation modelling
- Resource utilisation analysis and reallocation recommendations
- Throughput improvement scenarios with schedule impact
- Bottleneck identification and resolution options
Sectors
Bid Support Agent
Turns an enquiry into a priced, risk-assessed submission without three engineers losing a weekend.
Draws on historical programme data to produce cost benchmarks, risk registers and indicative programmes, compressing the time from tender receipt to submission without lowering the quality of the bid.
Outputs
- Cost benchmark analysis from historical programme data
- Risk register with quantified allowances
- Indicative programme for tender submission
- Bid / no-bid risk assessment report
Sectors
Drawing Intelligence & BOM Agent
Reads a general arrangement or fabrication drawing, including a photograph of one, and returns a bill of materials.
Works from your existing drawings in whatever format they exist and returns a bill of materials, material take-off and weld summary as structured output your engineers can act on straight away. No manual counting.
Outputs
- Bill of materials from a drawing or photograph
- Material take-off with quantities and specifications
- Weld summary by joint type and position
- Structured output ready for procurement or planning

How go-live works.
Two weeks from first call to live deployment. Here is exactly what happens.
Discovery and data access
Two days with your team to understand your programme, data environment and the risks you need to manage. We identify the relevant agents and the data they need.
Agent configuration
We configure the selected agents against your actual project data. Schedules loaded, procurement registers connected, QA frameworks mapped. No generic templates.
Validation and testing
We run the agents against your live data and validate the outputs with your project team, refining until they are accurate and actionable.
Handover and go live
Your team receives a half-day briefing. The agents go live and you receive your first intelligence reports within 24 hours.

Tell us about your programme and we will confirm which agents are relevant, what data they need and what you can expect to see in the first two weeks.
