“Spec Assist is a new service that we’re unveiling to our existing customers that will really help in three main areas. The first is helping enrich your data, by doing vendor outreach. So being kind of the relentless team to go after that data and keep on track of what has been shared. The second is to start doing some proactive data completeness audits to better understand what data may be missing over the years and what we can support and help gather that. And the third area is related to when looking forward to Spec Network and bringing suppliers on board. Spec Assist is that team supporting that transition for suppliers.”
