Automated Project Reporting ToolCan we create a tool to automate the collection of monthly report updates and combine them into a single document? Can we ensure that correct formatting is adhered to and that as much of the process is automated as possible?2.	Hazard Recognition ToolCan we create an app that can be used on sites to record our hazard data? Can we use object recognition to complete hazard reports?3.	Scope 3 Emission AnalysisCan we analyse all our scope 3 emission data and use it to find the outliers to target for improvement? Can we create an app that allows us to view our scope 3 emissions live and that can show us our emissions based on certain filters? i.e. Location, region, source4.	Training certificate parsing and cataloguingCan we use automation to scrape through and catalogue our PDF training certificates? Can we create a tool that can be used for different awarding bodies?5.	Article web scraping for opportunity monitoringCan we create a python script to scrape target websites and trim articles to appropriate size? Can we use automation to send those trimmed articles out to key people in a weekly email?6.	Work Scope Log VisualizationCan we gain useful insight into when a project is likely to go over budget and when the work hours dedicated to a project are running beyond expectation? Can we visualise this information in order for it to be easily represented and shown to management and key decision makers in the company? 8.	Optimising Project WinsCan we use analytics to determine how best to approach winning public sector contract? Can we determine if our bids will be successful and if they are worth investing in?9. Equipment Failure Rate Analysis Can we predict when a piece of equipment will have a fault by using historical maintenance data? Can we use our equipment failure data to streamline our maintenance and reduce cost? 10. Timesheet Recording and Monitoring System Can we use an application to allow employees to log quickly and easily what work they have done on each project? Can I receive a live visualization on what work has been logged by my teams? 11. GPT-3 Task Breakdown Assistant Can we use GPT-3 to break down projects into specific tasks that need completing? Can we use schedule data for training this model?
