Specification Management Simplified

January 10, 2018

The time and effort necessary to manually piece together a project specification often works in opposition to tightened deadlines, and transcription errors or overlooked items can potentially compound these issues. SpecLink-E software from Building System Design (BSD) automates specification writing, management and production tasks to improve efficiency and reduce the risk of errors when organizing information into a single submittal package.

SpecLink-E conforms to Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) formats, with opt-in text rather than opt-out text to reduce editing time. The master database pulls and stores product requirements and links to all major manufacturers, spanning all building disciplines, including Philips Lighting. Context-sensitive notes and reminders can be added to any paragraph without cluttering the screen or final printed document.

SpecLink-E is downloadable for single users and network licenses, and is also available as a cloud-based application. Don’t waste another moment buried in a specification, take the reins and make the process more efficient and stress-free.
