Control spec revisions and addenda on federal projects.

Specset conforms the base book, special provisions, and addenda into one governing text per section. Replaced language stays in the revision history, with an audit trail of what governs now. Every finding cites the paragraph or the sheet.

The book

What is the conformed spec book?

The base book, special provisions, and addenda conform into one governing text per section, with precedence and a clickable path back to the issued page. Search, reviews, and answers read that text.

Replacements

How are replaced sections tracked?

Amendments are applied the way they are written, oldest to newest. When a new addendum lands, affected sections re-conform into a new revision, and you can diff it against the previous one.

  1. 01

    Conform the book.

    The base book, special provisions, and addenda become one governing text per section, with precedence and a clickable path back to the issued page.

  2. 02

    Apply each replacement.

    Amendments are applied as written, oldest to newest: replace this value, add this paragraph, delete that subsection. The revision history and the diff stay with the section.

  3. 03

    Keep the audit trail.

    Addenda, special provisions, and RFI answers stack in precedence order. The record answers with what governs now, and shows what it superseded.

  4. 04

    Cite the finding.

    Design review, bid screening, submittal review, and RFI checks read that governing text. Every finding is cited to the paragraph or the sheet.
