The Evaluation shelf represents a significant change in how Building Product Manufacturers are selected for the specification. While MasterSpec will always the provide the name of any manufacturers who makes a product that meets the requirements for a section, Building Product Manufacturers who provide an enhanced listing with the additional product information and utilize the “instant answers” chat feature will reduce the work cycle for specifiers and enjoy a significant advantage over those manufacturers that require product research starting from scratch.

SpecAgent Logon, Manage Listings

SpecAgent provides an online component that allows Manufacturers to logon and manage both the initial request to be listed, as well as the information associated with each respective entry. 

		Contact, Web Link, Logo, Short Overview MasterSpec specifiers can also take advantage of manufactures that have had their products reviewed by AVITRU as meeting the requirements of the section and are listed in detail within the SA companion window.  While corporate websites are always available by default, already having this research done puts these manufactures at a decided advantage over those who still require specifiers to research their products from scratch.

		List Individual Products MasterSpec specifiers can also take advantage of manufactures that have had their products reviewed by AVITRU as meeting the requirements of the section and are listed in detail within the SA companion window.  While corporate websites are always available by default, already having this research done puts these manufactures at a decided advantage over those who still require specifiers to research their products from scratch.

Instant Answers Chat In an industry first, MasterSpec users can also see which manufacturers are online and available to provide instant answers to their questions via a built in chat feature.  Product reps can provide immediate answer to questions, and can “push” documents and cut sheets directly to the specifier's desktop without requiring identifying information or an email address from the specifier on the other end.  With the SpecAgent companion always open next to the specification, this feature alone will provide a significant competitive advantage over the remainder of the manufactures they have to take a more difficult, circuitous route to contact, and will provide your company with instant feedback on how effective SpecAgent is in getting your products specified.

		Flip Catalog AVITRU will convert your PDF to an easy to use, searchable Page Flip catalog that accessible over the web directly from the SpecAgent companion browser or linkable from your own corporate website. Click here for example.
