Dorma Providing Project Specifications in AVAproject Format – to U.S. and Canadian Customers!


The only thing more convenient than importing project specs into AVAproject is receiving in native AVAproject format. Dorma is able to provide project specifications that can be opened in AVAproject – no import necessary!

In the early part of 2013, AVAware proudly welcomed Dorma Americas to the growing list of manufacturers that have selected AVAproject for use by their specification writers. This choice has also provided a huge benefit for Dorma customers that are also using AVAproject for their estimating and detailing.

AVAproject users may contact Dorma directly to request project specifications and have them provided as native AVAproject (.APJ) files that can be opened and worked with immediately. The benefit to AVAproject users doesn’t end there however… Since Dorma’s specification writers are using AVAware catalogs to create the specifications, all the products contained in the project file arrived already linked to the same catalogs used by all AVAproject users.



Needless to say, receiving files in this format can eliminate countless hours of time normally spent in the preparation of estimates and submittal documents. Users need only fill in additional project details, discounts, markups, etc. – most of the tedious work has been done for them!
