Comprehensive Oversight
Our experts make sure that your specification is tailored to suit the project procurement, design responsibility, design intent, material selection, sustainability requirements and that your drawings cover the appropriate level of information.
Working with us is like hiring your own in-house architectural specification consultant. Though we offer our knowledge and experience, you have the final say as to what constitutes your architectural specification. However, whatever you decide, we will do everything we can to make sure your specs are complete and aligned to the project requirements.

We have developed specification Masters to suit all formats.
