Control Level of Specifications and Improve Office Master Management with the Latest Release of Specpoint

The latest release of Deltek Specpoint, a software that helps architects and engineers streamline the production of construction specifications, is available. The newest update includes two time-saving features: Level of Specification (LOS) and Office Master Workspace. These features capitalize on improved efficiencies using technology to streamline the production of construction specifications further. The new release also includes additional features that help simplify the process of managing firm office masters and better control the time used to develop specifications, while also providing the appropriate level of specificity needed for each design phase. Deltek Specpoint is designed to make your everyday job easier. Let’s take a tour of these new features!

Control Level of Specification (LOS)

Wouldn't it be great to have a better understanding and more control over the specification details and effort required for each phase of the design project? Now you have it! Specpoint's Level of Specification (LOS) gives you more control over the level of specificity needed for each phase of the project. Using technology, Specpoint LOS empowers users to manage the details required at each project phase efficiently without going through the manual process of developing the desired specification format. This helps your team quickly evolve the LOS for each specification as the project progresses through each design phase without costly overwork and lost time. Key benefits of Specpoint’s LOS include:

  • Improve project management by defining what specifications you need when you need them based on project requirements and phase
  • Reduce the time it takes to transition from different specification levels
  • Eliminate manual contract deliverable tasks such as transitioning from Outline Specifications to Full Length Specifications using Specpoint’s LOS automation

Streamline Firm Office Masters with Office Master Workspace

Time is of the essence when producing project specifications. Firm office masters are a valuable tool to streamline incorporating specifications into similar building projects, however, maintaining and managing office masters can be challenging. In the latest Specpoint release, the Office Master Workspace empowers users to edit, maintain, and manage firm office masters, in one place: Specpoint. This feature saves time, eliminating the need to export, edit and re-import the office master when updates are needed. Specpoint’s ability to edit, maintain, and manage office masters all within the software improves efficiencies and supports keeping office masters current for better project deliverables.
