SPECSINTACT.
Department of Defense (DoD) agencies use a specification processing system called
"SpecsIntact," an acronym for "Specifications-Kept-Intact." SpecsIntact is the word
processing software used to edit the UFGS database.
This system provides several time-saving features including creation of an outline
specification; paragraph renumbering; printing without notes; reference verification;
bracket removal check; and printing of the reference standards list, a submittal register,
and a report which lists test requirements and actions of interest to the Contracting
Officer. The system also offers a redline editing tool that will save the project
specification with edits.
SpecsIntact is available for download, free of charge, at the SpecsIntact web site
(http://specsintact.ksc.nasa.gov/).
