Chalkline introduced a Community Masters Partner Program where master specifications are made available in the VisiSpecs Cloud Server for easy access by all customers.
VisiSpecs customers have been importing client masters, international masters, office masters, project specs, and commercial master specs for years.
Now the availability of the Community Masters out-of-the-box and automatically updated in the VisiSpecs Cloud Server simplifies the process and saves time for everyone.
The Community Masters may be used in conjunction with other projects and masters or in their entirety for project specification development. Custom office masters may also be created using the Community Masters as a baseline. Updates to the Community Masters are automatically available as they become available from Chalkline Partners and questions regarding the masters are answered directly by partners who maintain the masters.
As an example, Chalkline is now a Publisher of the National Research Council of Canada making the National Master Specifications (NMS) available to all Chalkline subscribers. NMS masters are available in MasterFormat and UniFormat and in both English and French versions. NMS is intelligently integrated and accessible in the VisiSpecs Cloud Server and is currently available Free of charge to all VisiSpecs customers.
Chalkline has also partnered with Kalin Associates making the Kalin Associates Short Form Masters available to all Chalkline subscribers. Kalin Short Form MasterFormat specs are integrated and accessible in the VisiSpecs Cloud Server and available Free of charge to all VisiSpecs customers.
Current VisiSpecs customers simply need to send a request to support@chalklineinc.com to be given access to their preferred Community Masters. VisiSpecs Free Trial users have access to sample Community Master specs and when an annual subscription begins the Community Masters are made available.
Partners wishing to make their specification masters available through the VisiSpecs Cloud Server to VisiSpecs subscribers should contact info@chalklineinc.com for more information.
P. Connell, DSRA Architecture says: “The organization of documents in the project tree and video tutorials enabled a very quick learning curve. We have tried other spec tools in the market, but the VisiSpecs strategy is on target for success.”
