mDOCS, BE A PART OF GROWING TECHNICAL RESOURCES FOR THE INDUSTRY

03 Aug 2021

Through the years of assisting specifiers, Masterspec realised that many designers spend countless hours trying to find important documentation to support their specification. Designers would have to navigate onto manufacturers websites, rummage through leftover handouts from presentations and at the end of the day, attach out of date technical documentation that didn’t support their intentions. At the end of it all, the specification and supported documentation was unrelatable before it was even completed.

Then, just one year ago in 2020, Masterspec created mDocs Technical Library. A space where manufacturers and suppliers can upload documentation relating to performance, environmental, installation, warranty, product information and maintenance.

This was a game changer for specifiers. With just one click, you can attach relevant product documentation directly to your specification. The best part is, when a document has been updated by the manufacturer, it automatically notifies specifiers that there is a new document available to use.

Today, and 12 months later, the community of specifiers and partners have grown the mDocs technical library by more than 200%!  Manufacturers are continually loading valuable resources on to the library, and specifiers are also requesting documentation to support their specification. With over tens of thousands of documents downloaded every month, mDocs has proven to be more than just time – saving. It also improves the availability of product content for the project teams.

Be a part of this growing resource and community! Simply ‘set to complete’ while you specify and find the documents you require within the library that hosts thousands of documents. If you are after a specific document, simply select ‘Request a Document’ so the manufacturer can upload it into mDocs for your next project.

This free resource within your subscription will help ensure the entire specifying community has the right documents, at the right time, when they need it the most. Help your community of specifiers by requesting documentation through mDocs today.

You can find out more about using mDocs and requesting documents from your manufacturer by watching this short video, part of the mDocs training series.
