Valeur.In every sector, the contract breaks at a different clause.
The clause–risk–cash spine is the same across all construction work. What separates one sector from another is where the load builds up first along that spine: the contract form, the critical path and the first clause to come under strain change with the line of work. The 32 records below are the sector set. It lives in Valeur’s reference data.
REFERENCE DATA — HAND-AUTHORED, AUDITABLE
Ordered by record id. Alphabetical only.
The order is alphabetical by record id in the reference data — not by the name you see on screen. It implies nothing about size, priority or depth of coverage. Each description states that sector’s own contractual pressure: not one of the records says what Valeur does, only what the sector is up against.
Four of the thirty-two records link to a page. They are not the largest sectors and they are not featured: they are the four whose own named engine a route reaches today. All thirty-two carry a record in that same reference data and a risk profile a route will return, and all thirty-two are bound to one of seven engine names. A route reaches four of those seven today. So a link here marks a page you can read, not a level of coverage.

Four questions about the list.
Where does this list of 32 sectors come from?
From the product’s own reference data. The sector set lives in a hand-authored, auditable source file; each record carries its typical contract forms, critical activities, long-lead equipment, applicable standards and sector-specific contract provisions. Every line was put there by hand, and every line can be shown.
What happens if my sector sits outside the list?
The list is closed. Classification chooses only among these 32 ids. When a match falls outside that set the primary sector comes back empty and the analysis runs on the shared clause–risk–cash spine, with sector-specific defaults left out of it. A closed list makes coverage countable rather than claimed.
How is the sector detected?
Keyword scoring first — fully deterministic, rule-based on its own. If confidence stays below the 0.7 threshold a language model is consulted as a second path; that path opens where a provider is configured. Where no provider is configured, the highest-scoring keyword match is returned, marked as rule-based. Every result says which path produced it.
What does the sector choice actually change?
The sector binds to one of six groups that decide which jurisdiction baseline applies. That binding is hand-written. It is filled in for all thirty-two records; where the closest counterpart is only a proxy, the proxy is recorded explicitly and the reason is written into the record. The point is to remove one specific failure: a nuclear facility being assessed, silently, on office-building economics.
You have read a line in the list. The next step is your own contract.
Let us take the pressure written into your sector’s record and walk it through the clauses of your own contract. A contract form and a few clauses are enough to begin.
