Opportunity specifications

Opportunity specifications is one of Demiton's published registers for Australian civil construction. Technical and scope specifications extracted from an opportunity's tender documents. Demiton keeps it current from the systems a contractor already runs and publishes the record's shape as a versioned JSON Schema, so the same question works whichever system produced the record.

Part of Opportunities in the register catalog.

Demiton keeps this register current from these systems now.

No system fills this register yet.

On the roadmap

Systems in the planned connector rollout that can fill this register. Partial means the system holds only some of its fields.

None planned yet.

Fields

9 fields: 5 required, 4 optional.

Required

Every record carries these fields.

issuing_bodyText

The issuing body / code-set grouping the entry sits under; explicit null only when the drawing set places the entry nowhere.

Example: TMR

specificationsList

The extracted governing-specification entries. Empty array is meaningful and must be written.

specification_codeText

The clause/document code exactly as written on the drawing, including parenthetical alternative codes and revision suffixes (the parser's own examples: C242, TS 02168.1 (R64), AS3798-2007); explicit null when the entry has no code of its own.

Example: MRTS04

source_document_pathText

The resolved path of the drawing-set PDF. Provenance key for the fact.

Example: /Opportunities/RFT260051/Drawings/RFT260051-Specification…

specification_descriptionText

The specification's title as the issuing body wrote it.

Example: General Earthworks

Optional

Present when the source system records them.

extraction_notesText

Free-text caveats from the extractor (raster pages, LLM notes).

extracted_page_countNumberUnit: pages

Pages the parser actually read, capped at 40.

Example: 32

source_document_nameText

Human-readable file name.

Example: RFT260051-Specifications.pdf

specifications_table_presentTrue or false

Whether the drawing set carried a literal boxed "PROJECT SPECIFICATIONS" table rather than inline/clause-list references.

Example: true

Example record

Use this contract

The contract is a standard JSON Schema (draft 2020-12) document, so any JSON Schema validator can check a record against it. Keywords starting with x-demiton- add Demiton's own meaning, such as units and requiredness, and validators ignore them.
