How do I create a new project?

In the bottom right corner of the screen when you login to Smartspec there is a blue flag icon. Click on it to start a handy tutorial, guiding you through the creation of a new project.

Otherwise, there are three ways to create a new project within Smartspec:

1. Add Project from Scratch

Projects > New Project > Add Project from Scratch

Here you can set up a new project from scratch, add the relevant specifications, and make the relevant selections within specifications.

2. Add Project from Template

Projects > New Project > Add Project from Template

You can set up a new project based on an existing Project Template. When you do this your new project will be pre-populated with the latest versions of the specifications from your Project Template. You will then need to make the relevant selections within the specifications.

3. Duplicate Project

Project Dashboard > Project Actions > Duplicate Project

With one click you can copy/paste the content within your project into a new project.

It will transfer all content including clause option selections, notes, appendix documents, related parties, etc. Items that are not automatically duplicated:

• Project title
• Job number
• Project address
• Lot number
• DP number
• Project status
• Date of issue
