AI-assisted cost estimation for trade fair construction
Schnaitt GmbH, an experienced trade fair construction company, wanted to present an innovative AI project at the TechDays, an event with several sister companies, to strengthen its position as a technologically advanced company. The goal was to develop a chatbot that creates cost estimates for trade fair construction, thus digitizing the expertise of the trade fair builders. This solution was intended to address the bottleneck of qualified personnel while also simplifying and speeding up processes.
Challenge
Lack of skilled workers in trade fair construction
Schnaitt GmbH is facing a shortage of qualified personnel, which complicates the timely creation of accurate cost estimates for trade show booths.
Highly complex calculation processes
The existing calculations for exhibition stand offers are difficult to standardize due to their complexity and require specific expertise that is not easily replaceable.
Expectations for high accuracy
A precision of 10-15% deviation from the actual price was required for the cost estimates, which poses a significant technical challenge.
