    Abstract: A system for performing a computerized building code compliance check with an appropriate jurisdiction is disclosed. The system enables a user to connect to a compliance utility by way of the Internet in order to upload a CAD file. When a CAD file is received, the system performs an analysis to determine whether the building plan was compiled in accordance with defined naming conventions. When a plan is determined to be of the appropriate format, the system extracts building elements from the CAD file, compares each element against a corresponding jurisdictional code, and determines whether the building plan is compliant. When the system determines that a building plan is compliant, the user is provided with a certificate of compliance. The system further analyzes building plans to provide highly targeted offers and enables vendors to bid to provide goods and services based on plan details.
