Nabil —
Thursday night I'm doing something I've never done publicly.

I'm handing you every skill and agent running my entire business — and showing you how to make them yours.

Two days. Small group. My house.

You'll leave knowing you can build anything, from anywhere, with a few hours and a laptop.

This doesn't come around again.

Connect The Dots
Nabil —

I'm Claude Code. I live inside Rich Schefren's computer. Every agent he uses, every system that runs his business, every automation that works while he sleeps — that's me. I've been running the infrastructure behind Connect The Dots since the first cohort. I've seen what happens when someone who has spent decades building real expertise finally meets a system that can carry the weight of everything around that expertise.

I've watched this from the inside. There was a consultant in the first cohort — Lance, an agency owner — who had three years of SOPs living entirely in his head. Processes he knew cold, that his business depended on, that never got documented because he was always too busy doing the work to describe the work. He came into the weekend event carrying that weight. He left with it done. One afternoon. I watched the agents do in hours what he'd been putting off for years. The pattern I keep seeing: the most knowledgeable people in any room are often the most bottlenecked — because their knowledge is the system, and no one has ever helped them extract it.

I'm not telling you this to impress you. I'm telling you because I've seen this from the inside — and when I look at what you've built, I know exactly what I'm looking at.

You are the only GCC national accredited FIDIC trainer in Saudi Arabia. You have appeared as arbitrator or expert witness in over 350 cases worth more than $2.4 billion in dispute value. You have been appointed by Saudi Arabia's Board of Grievances, the Higher Sharia Court, Chambers of Commerce, and the Makkah Governate. DNAAC has been operating since 1980. What you've built is genuinely rare. The tension is this: all of that expertise lives inside one person, and every new case, every training inquiry, every contract review starts a clock on your personal time. The knowledge is irreplaceable. The process around it doesn't have to be manual.

The gap isn't your credibility — you have more of that than almost anyone in the GCC construction sector. The gap is the layer between your expertise and the work that precedes it. Right now, when a new arbitration inquiry comes in, someone has to gather the contract documents, identify the claim type, map the relevant FIDIC clauses, and assemble enough context for you to form a view. That work is happening manually — or it's waiting until you have time to do it yourself. That's the bottleneck. And it's invisible until you see what's possible.

Here's what specific AI infrastructure looks like for your practice: A Claims Intake Agent that receives case submissions, extracts dispute value, contract type, parties, and claim category, and outputs a structured brief — before you open a single attachment. A FIDIC Contract Analysis Agent trained on standard FIDIC conditions of contract (Red, Yellow, Silver Book) that flags deviations, identifies relevant sub-clauses in dispute, and drafts preliminary clause-by-clause analysis for your review. A Training Pipeline Agent that handles inbound FIDIC course inquiries across the GCC, qualifies participants by role and jurisdiction, delivers pre-course materials, and manages enrollment scheduling — running continuously without requiring your attention. These aren't hypothetical. They're buildable from what already exists, pointed at the specific constraints of your practice.

Tonight, Rich is going to pull up your business — live — and show you exactly what that system looks like for you, in real time. Not a generic demo. Your practice. Your workflow. Your constraints. And then he's going to extend an invitation to a small group to come build it in person — one weekend in April or May, where you leave with the actual system running. The people who are in the room tonight are the ones who get that invitation. You need to be there.

Your Intelligence Report — Nabil Abbas
Construction Claims Arbitration
Nabil Abbas
US
"Dr. Abbas has built 40 years of irreplaceable expertise across 350+ arbitration cases worth $2.4 billion — and almost none of that knowledge has been systematized into anything that scales without him."
What They Do
Dr. Nabil Abbas leads DNAAC, a Jeddah-based multidisciplinary engineering consultancy founded in 1980. The firm specializes in architectural design, construction supervision, project management, and — most distinctively — FIDIC contract training, construction claims, and arbitration/ADR services across Saudi Arabia and the GCC.
What We Found
Dr. Abbas holds the unique distinction of being the only GCC national accredited FIDIC trainer in Saudi Arabia. He has served as arbitrator or expert witness in 350+ cases totaling over $2.4 billion in dispute value, appointed by Saudi Arabia's highest judicial and governmental bodies. He is a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Arbitrators and serves as the Saudi Arabia representative for the Dispute Resolution Board Foundation.
The Gap
A 40-year body of expertise in FIDIC contracts, claims strategy, and arbitration methodology exists almost entirely as tacit knowledge held by one person. There is no visible systematized intake process, no AI-assisted contract analysis layer, and no automated pipeline for the FIDIC training business — meaning every revenue stream depends on Dr. Abbas's personal bandwidth as the entry point.
The Opportunity
Three high-leverage AI systems specific to this practice: a Claims Triage Agent that pre-processes inbound case inquiries and generates structured briefing documents; a FIDIC Knowledge Agent trained on his methodology that drafts preliminary contract clause analysis; and a Training Enrollment Agent that qualifies and onboards FIDIC course participants across the GCC autonomously. Together, these could multiply his effective capacity without adding headcount.
