A construction specification follows the three part format, and the submittals that a responsive bid and the work depend on are listed in Part 1 of every section, easy to miss across dozens of sections.
What the submittals require
Each specification section lists the submittals in Part 1: the product data, the shop drawings, the samples, the certifications, and the closeout documents. They define what the contractor must provide and when, and some are due with or shortly after the bid.
Why submittals are easy to miss
The submittals sit inside Part 1 of every section across dozens of divisions, not in one list, and assembling the full submittal register by hand is slow and error prone. A missed submittal requirement surfaces as a problem during the work.
How an AI bid response agent catches them
An AI bid response agent reads every section, extracts the submittals from Part 1 across the specification, and assembles a submittal register tied to its sections so nothing required is missed.
You can see the submittal register assembled across a full specification in our AI bid response agent demo for construction and infrastructure RFPs. It catches the submittals in Part 1 of every section so none is missed.
