Deltek and AIA Introduce a New Solution for Architects to Build Better Projects

Deltek, the leading global provider of software and solutions for project-based enterprises, and AIA have announced that Deltek Specpoint, a new solution for the AEC sector, will be available in September. The solution is an all-in-one specification and design automation tool that will serve as AIA MasterSpec's new home. With its unique approach to specification authoring and the industry-proven content provided by MasterSpec, Specpoint will assist architects and engineers in reducing risks and improving project outcomes.

Deltek and the AIA have a long history of collaboration and leadership in the architecture and building design industries, beginning with MasterSpec, a product developed by The AIA for its members. The two companies collaborated to offer MasterSpec and software solutions that provide architects with the greatest tools for specifying building products and materials.

Recognizing the need for architectural and engineering firms to improve project efficiency, Deltek and AIA have collaborated to provide extensive online building product research and selection content and a simplified specification design and publishing tool.

Deltek Specpoint, the home of AIA MasterSpec, is a cloud-based software system that will change how product manufacturers, architects, and engineers interact. Users will intelligently explore and select products, write specs efficiently, and create project manuals to deliver successful projects.
