The 2025 Standard Specification book is mandatory for use on projects advertised on or after July 1, 2025.
Project Specification Assembly Tool (PSAT)

(Note: Due to new ADA requirements for CDOT websites, for some reason, some Project Special Provisions titles are not showing up in the package. You will have to either copy and paste the titles or insert the PSPs you want into the package. We are working to solve this.) This Tool assembles the required Project Special Provisions and the current Standard Special Provisions Index into an overall Specifications Package for use in an advertisement set. The User will be required to heavily edit the resulting Project Special Provisions package for their specific project. The PSAT maybe have to be downloaded to user's computer and Macros must be enabled. ___________________________________________________________________
