“e-SPECS solutions allow architects and engineers to save countless hours and dollars while ensuring that their digital construction models and drawings agree with the specifications,” said Michael Brennan, CEO of InterSpec. “Customers like HMC designing a variety of facilities including healthcare, education and government facilities use e-SPECS enabling efficient and coordinated construction document management, design team collaboration and enterprise level data management. We are pleased with the selection of e-SPECS by HMC and look forward to working closely with them on continued development of functionality around their processes.”
