Key Dates for Specpoint Upgrade

Specpoint will be combining MasterSpec's SpecAgent and Product MasterSpec into one unified experience. 

Here are the key dates you need to be aware of as we make this transition.

Specpoint Launch

When:  Launch Date is September 15, 2021 

You will receive your new login credentials on this date. 

Who: All Specpoint (formerly MasterSpec) users 

Why: To give users access to update your product listing cards and company information.

What: During the migration to Specpoint, your active and completed product listings in SpecAgent will be activated in Specpoint and in a state that will allow you, as an admin, the ability to update your listing information. 

The availability to access product information will be open from September 15 through October 31, 2021. After October 31, 2021, access to the product listings will be removed.

To gain access after October 31, 2021, you will need to contact your ConstructConnect account manager.  Training videos will be provided on how to update your product listings. 

Additional Information: Changes that you submit during this time will be live in Specpoint.  Be sure that all information added to your product listings is accurate before saving your changes. 

After changes are saved or submitted, information can still be updated until Deltek’s fulfillment team has completed their evaluation of your changes and has set the state of the product listing to be completed.
