With appreciation for our users and advertisers who have supported 4specs as a resource for three decades, this message is to announce that the time has come for my retirement. I am grateful for all that you have contributed through your support of 4specs during these 30 years.
This has been an incredible journey. In 1996 I never imagined this would become my life’s work, but it truly has become a labor of love.
At 81 have decided to retire and pass the 4specs torch to Conspectus. The best time to retire is with good health and a great company to take over what I have developed.
I am sure Conspectus will guide 4specs into a great future. As the largest independent specification firm they are knowledgeable about both the needs of specifiers and how to support manufacturers in their marketing to specifiers.
4specs will continue to run with Conspectus. I will support Conspectus in maintaining the website and its information.
Colin Gilboy
Publisher of 4specs
As president of Conspectus, I am honored that Colin trusts us to continue his legacy of supporting the industry in a way that no other has done. We will ensure that 4specs remains a valuable resource for everyone as it has been for us.
We look forward to bolstering 4specs as the cornerstone of our specifications community – a place for the entire design and construction industry to share experiences, help each other solve problems, mentor aspiring individuals, and improve project delivery.
I invite you to start your product and manufacturer searches at 4specs.You will find manufacturers directly instead of distributors and big box stores. Join the discussion forum to tap into the many experienced individuals that gladly help.
I look forward to building on Colin's vision.
