We wanted to take a minute to share more as this request is our top rated and we’re so grateful for the continued input that each of you provided. At Procore, our vision is to improve the lives of everyone in construction. Building software to improve the lives of all roles within construction is so important to us and we continue to pursue this every day. The opinions each of you share here is critical to helping us understand if we’re heading the right direction. So, thank you!
We know this will be a very valuable feature and this is something that we’re actively working towards. There is some underlying technology that we need to improve before we feel confident to deliver a feature like this at the scale of supporting various roles and project types in construction. So while we may not yet be able to update this ticket to “Started” quite yet, know that we are working towards making this functionality available.

Be able to redline specification sections. Design teams do not always reissue the whole spec but only clarifications. Would be nice to be able to redline in Procore instead of redline in a different application and re-upload

Why can you not markup specifications?... You should be able to highlight, underline, etc...

The ability to mark up specifications would greatly help our document review and issue control process. Is there any update on development process?

Brandon Bowman: Your comments today have all been memory holed by PC which is unfortunate because the review was spot on. I wish I saved a copy - we experience most of the same issues you describe. My workload has actually increased since we signed up and have been using PC for a year now. There are so many missing pieces (however small they might be) that doing piecemeal workarounds means the value proposition is rapidly evaporating and the cost/benefit ratio is at or below 1.

Having the option to mark up a specification like we can on a drawing would be very helpful.

So what is the update on this item or are we to upload the specifications into drawings and do it that way?

Is there an ETA for this to function to roll-out?

Yes, please fix this. Many times, there are RFI answers that effect the specifications and these spec sections aren't being reissued. For me to download the spec, mark it up myself, then reupload it will create a Revision to the specs that was not given to us by the Architect/Engineer and will lead to confusion.

Yes, this is very important to us as well. We can't effectively as-built our plans and specs if only our plans can be marked up.

This needs to be an added function. By the time it gets incorporated, it will be too late on my current project.

This feature would be useful for Design-Build projects where as a GC you need to manage the design along with the construction. Would be handy to be able to comment on specifications in procore.
