Specification Review

Customer specification review

Customer specification review is the check you run on a customer's requirements document before you quote: what is asked, what deviates from your standards, and what needs a decision. Booma turns the document into a structured list, flags deviations and lets every department review its part at the same time.

The Problem

Specification reviews run out of time

01
The spec arrives in any format.
300 pages, three file types, a two-day deadline.
02
Deviations show up after the quote.
What your standards do not allow is found when it is too late to price it in.
03
Reviews run one department after another.
And every customer amendment sends you back to the start.
How It Works

Five steps from upload to amendment

01
Upload the specification in any format.
02
Booma extracts a structured requirements list.
03
Assign departments by requirement or by chapter.
04
See deviations against your engineering standards.
05
Compare versions when the customer sends a change request or amendment.

FAQs

Questions about specification review

What is a Lastenheft and how do I review it?

A Lastenheft is the customer’s requirements document. Reviewing it means extracting the requirements, checking them for deviations from your standards, and deciding how to respond before you quote.

How do I check a specification against my own standards?

Booma flags deviations from your engineering standards, so you see which requirements your standard design does not meet.

Can several departments review at the same time?

Yes. Departments are assigned by requirement or by chapter, and each one reviews its part in parallel.

What happens when the customer sends an updated version?

Version comparison shows every change between the old and the new specification, so you only review what moved.

What is a URS review?

The same check, for a user requirement specification (URS).
