How it works

From project documents to project-ready specifications.

SpecStage streamlines the UFGS tailoring workflow into a series of clear, engineer-controlled stages. Project documents go in; tailored, reviewable specifications come out.

1

Upload project documents

Drop your RFP, design criteria, drawings, and supporting documentation into a single project workspace. SpecStage accepts PDF, image, and text formats and uses these inputs as the foundation for every downstream decision.

2

AI-assisted section recommendation

SpecStage reviews the uploaded documents and recommends the UFGS specification sections relevant to your project scope. Every recommendation is shown for engineer confirmation; sections can be added or removed before any tailoring begins. No section is processed without explicit approval.

3

Project-aware tailoring

Each selected section is tailored against the project's full context — branch, location, scope, mission criticality, host-nation considerations, and any additional options the engineer has configured. Tailoring resolves bracketed options, fill-in values, non-applicable paragraphs, table-row applicability, references, and submittal requirements as part of this step.

4

Engineer review

Tailored sections are presented for review alongside the rationale behind each decision and a confidence score. Engineers can accept any decision, edit it, request a revision, or remove it before approving the output for delivery.

5

Export

Approved sections export as SpecsIntact-compatible specification files for direct integration into your existing workflow, or as PDF for distribution and archival. A complete decision log exports alongside, giving a full audit trail of every tailoring choice made.

Engineer-controlled by design

SpecStage proposes. The engineer decides.

Every recommendation, every tailoring decision, and every export is presented for engineer review. SpecStage is built to accelerate the engineer's work — never to replace their judgment or remove their authority over the final specification.
