RIB Partners with ASI Group to Introduce an Unprecedented Specification Tool with SpecLive Manufacturer Solutions

RIB is thrilled to announce its latest product launch in partnership with ASI Group, aimed at elevating collaboration between building product manufacturers, distributors, facility owners, and architects. This collaboration introduces ASI Group, a leader in washroom accessories, toilet partitions, lockers, and visual display products, to RIB’s cutting-edge SpecLive suite, including SpecLive Assist and SpecLive Connect. These tools are designed to empower architects, engineers, and construction professionals by simplifying the specification process, making it faster and more efficient.

SpecLive Assist: Custom Product Configuration Made Easy

With SpecLive Assist, architects can quickly and efficiently configure and specify ASI products as the basis of design. This powerful tool integrates seamlessly with ASI's assets and other tools, allowing design professionals to select and tailor product specifications with just a few clicks. By eliminating the need for tedious research and manual specification creation, SpecLive Assist saves valuable time and effort, enabling users to focus on what truly matters – their projects.

Enhancing ASI’s commitment to providing the industry’s most innovative products and design assistance

ASI's broad portfolio of products, which includes washroom accessories, toilet partitions, lockers, and visual display products, will greatly benefit from SpecLive Assist. This tool allows users to configure and specify products from a dimensional, color, and technical standpoint, ensuring a perfect fit for their projects.

A Win-Win for Operations and Services

"We recognize that architects have less time than ever to research and customize their specifications," says Matt Johnson, Director of Manufacturer Solutions for RIB. "With SpecLive Assist, we aim to substantially reduce the amount of work needed to specify products accurately. This allows us to support both RIB's SpecLink user base and those who still rely on Microsoft Word documents for their project specification equally."

Driving Innovation in the AEC Industry

This partnership promises to transform the landscape of collaborative design, delivering unprecedented benefits to the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) community. By simplifying the specification process and providing high-quality, customized specs, RIB and ASI are committed to enhancing the customer experience and driving innovation in the AEC industry.

Looking Forward

RIB and ASI are excited to embark on this journey with RIB SpecLive Assist, empowering clients with efficient, tailored solutions for their project needs. “In an evolving construction industry market segment, that is faced with short timelines, value engineering, expectations of fast response, and one-click solutions, ASI’s specification generator will bring calm and an enhanced ease of doing business to the market,” says Mark Schiller, VP of Sales and Marketing for the ASI Group.  “The collaboration with the RIB team to develop the tools that are important to the industry has resulted in another industry leading solution that has been added to the list of several that exist in the ASI portfolio.”
