Specified Technologies Join e-SPECS BPM Program

PORTLAND, ME, Apr 28, 2010 - InterSpec, Inc., the industry leading provider of BIM integrated construction specification software and services, continues to grow the Building Product Manufacturer’s (BPM) proprietary BIM and specification content for e-SPECS users by adding products from Specified Technologies Inc. (STI). The e-SPECS BPM Program enables building product manufacturers to get specified into more projects by distributing their product specifications and BIM objects directly to the desktops of designers and specifiers.

Specified Technologies Inc. focuses solely on the firestopping business. With over 25 years of firestopping experience, the founders of STI are committed to the development of innovative, reliable firestopping solutions. Danielle DeGerolamo, Marketing Manager at STI, stated “We continue to find more efficient methods of delivering our customers ways to specify our industry leading products into their projects. e-SPECS is enabling our customers a level of integration and consistency not available through other delivery offerings.”

“We’re happy to have BPM Program Members such as STI delivering industry leading solutions and products to e-SPECS users,” includes Seamus McGrady, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at InterSpec. “We’re able to provide BIM integration and specification writing unmatched in the marketplace. Combining our BPM Program Member’s specifications and the e-SPECS integration enables time and cost savings with without the need to perform time consuming internet searches, tedious reformatting and editing of content.”

InterSpec’s patented e-SPECS software solutions automate the preparation of construction specifications and selection of products and materials, used by thousands of architects, engineers and construction professionals. e-SPECS BIM solutions integrate a design’s construction model with construction specifications keeping them in sync while reducing the overall cost of development. As a manufacturer’s Revit family is used in a Revit model, the corresponding detailed specification criteria will automatically be included in the e-SPECS project manual with coordinated detailed keynotes for Revit.

e-SPECS facilitates the development of specification manuals through CAD/BIM integration as well as non-integrated specification development. e-SPECS users are more likely to include BPM product specs distributed within the e-SPECS database versus having to spend the time to search the internet, research, download, reformat and coordinate specifications with the rest of their project manual. With the inclusion of BPM Program Member’s content, architects and engineers will be able to supplement their project manuals with specific proprietary information directly from within their e-SPECS programs.
