Technical Specification Writing Training
A technical specification is an official document that defines the technical requirements of a product or project. Specifications that are not prepared properly bring with them the risk of wrong procurement, cost increases, delays and disputes. Grupas' Technical Specification Writing training enables organizations to define their needs in a clear, measurable and testable way throughout their purchasing processes and project delivery.
The program covers the definition of a technical specification and its importance within a project, the critical steps of the preparation process (correctly identifying needs, requirement analysis, determining the content, establishing conformity criteria), the fundamental elements of a specification (scope and objectives, technical requirements, quality standards, delivery, warranty and support, price, contract and payment terms) as well as the principles of effective writing (clear and precise language, standard references and certification, technical drawings and diagrams, revision and change management). It is delivered in a classroom training format and concludes with certification.
