We are now required to use the Master format 2018. SpecsIntact is an automated

Specification Management System and is the latest generation of software for preparing facility construction specifications used worldwide by NASA, the Naval Facilities

Engineering Command (NAVFAC), U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Air

Force Civil Engineer Center. SpecsIntact utilizes Master guide specifications prepared by the Government agencies, which is at the hear of what makes the system unique.

SpecsIntact is a free download at https://specsintact.ksc.nasa.gov/Software/Software.sht

4.5.7 Specification References. Provide in both MS-word (.docx) and PDF format (PDF @

RTA only). All references to industry standards such as ASTM, ANSI, Fed Spec, etc. shall be dated. Only references specifically applicable to the subject project shall be included in the specifications.

4.5.9 Proprietary References. Federal projects are required to provide open competition for all products that serve the intended function and fulfill the performance requirements stated in the construction documents. The A-E shall provide performance specifications whenever possible and use reference specifications when necessary. If the work requires the use of proprietary specifications the A-E shall provide 42CES/CEN with a Sole Source justification letter that explains why a particular product is the only one that can perform the intended function. When reference specifications are used provide the name and address of the manufacturer used as a basis for the design. Qualify the use of a single manufacture name by stating, “any reference to a specific manufacture is intended to set minimum standards, configuration, and appearance, and not to restrict competition of equal or better manufacturers and products. The A-E shall provide 42CES/CEN project manager with a cut sheet from the manufacture that describes all the salient features of the product being specified.

4.6 Green Procurement.

4.6.1. In order to comply with federally mandated environmental preference programs and

Department of Defense (DOD) “Green Procurement Program” (GPP) policy, Maxwell-

Gunter AFB requires the use of environmentally preferable products and services. These program elements include; recovered material products, energy and water efficient products, alternative fuels and fuel efficiency, bio-based products, non-ozone depleting substances, priority chemicals, and environmentally preferable products.

4.7 Asbestos. The A-E shall not specify asbestos containing materials in the work. In those instances that removal of asbestos containing materials is required a comprehensive specification meeting the requirements and conditions of the federal government will be required. A sample specification will be given to the A-E.

4.8 Drawing Notes. A sample title sheet will be given to the A-E. Ensure that the following is on the title sheet:

“ALL DRAWINGS ARE DIAGRAMMATIC AND ARE INTENDED TO QUANTIFY THE

MATERIALS SPECIFIED AND INDICATE THEIR INTENDED RELATIONSHIP TO EACH

OTHER. THE DRAWINGS ARE NOT TO BE SCALED. THE VARIOUS SCALES USED ON THE

DRAWINGS MAY NOT ALLOW FOR ALL FITTINGS, OFFSETS, AND ACCESSORIES THAT

MAY BE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE THE WORK. THE CONTRACTOR SHALL CAREFULLY

INVESTIGATE THE CONDITIONS THAT WOULD AFFECT THE WORK TO BE PERFORMED

AND SHALL ARRANGE SUCH WORK AS NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH THE INTENT OF

THE CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS.”

4.9 Designs In Inch-Pound. This requires the use of inch-pound measurements in criteria, design, and specification documents for facility projects. When dual units are needed present International

System of Units (SI) designations first, followed by the inch-pound (IP) designation in parenthesis.

4.10 42CES/CEN Provided Materials. 42CES/CEN will provide hard copies of the subject building listed above from archive drawing files and other drawings selected by the A-E. The archive files are located in the Civil Engineering administrative building, 400 Cannon Street.
