Contractors, Owners and Specifiers can all benefit from the use of these guiding principles of specification development, especially when surface preparation, hazardous remediation, and coatings and linings are part of a larger overall scope of work. The coatings (sub) contractor can benefit by knowing how to find all pertinent data so that bids can be prepared properly. The owner can benefit by having a clearly organized specification. The specifier can benefit, as the logical format for organizing large specifications will result in less of a chance for conflicting information. MasterFormat is becoming the standard of care for the preparation of specifications.
