  • Creating effective specifications

Creating effective specifications

A two-day workshop

High quality specifications are of paramount importance in achieving the right technical performance and value for money. This long-established training programme has been developed to help those involved in producing specifications to create high quality documents in an organised and effective way. It provides a sound foundation for those new to the topic whilst at the same time offering new insights to those with more experience.

The programme emphasises the need for a clear definition of requirements combined with the ability to communicate those requirements effectively to third parties. A structured method of preparing specifications is provided, and a range of practical techniques is presented, to enable participants to put the principles into practice. The commercial and contractual role of specifications is also addressed.

learning objectives

Who should attend?

The workshop is designed for approximately 12-15 participants who are, or will be, involved in writing or contributing to the preparation and management of specifications.

Format

A thoroughly practical two-day course involving exercises, three case studies, formal tutorials and trainer-facilitated discussions.

Special features

To facilitate the knowledge transfer and performance improvement process, we recommend that the programme sponsor both introduce the course and be present for the final session.
