• Specifications are detailed, formal descriptions of the product purchased and/or work methods required to purchase/fabricate/install the product. • A scope of work is a less-detailed step-by-step description of the product and/or work desired. • Work “tasks” are a listing of general requirements necessary to meet a specific need, but leaving the technical details up to the contractor (design/build).
