AI agent for interior designers
FF&E Schedule and Procurement Agent
Every item ordered right and delivered on time
What it does
Furniture, fixtures and equipment orders involve dozens of vendors, and one wrong finish or missed delivery can stall an install. This agent keeps the FF&E schedule: item, room, size, finish, vendor, price, lead time and status. Before ordering, it checks that each item fits the space plan and access routes, that finishes match the approved samples and that the total stays within budget. Problems go to the designer. After approval, it drafts purchase orders and tracks confirmations, ship dates and deliveries. It compares each vendor confirmation with the order and flags any difference in finish, size or date. Late items get substitute options. On delivery, it checks for damage reports. The designer approves orders and substitutes. Edge case: a sofa that fits the room but not the stairwell is caught from access measurements.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
