The build spec is the source of truth for production
After a sample is accepted, the build spec records the exact state that production and staging should reproduce. It should be specific enough for engineering, operations, procurement and the partner team to review the same device build.
Build spec template
| Spec area | Fields to record | Evidence source |
|---|---|---|
| Device platform | Model, hardware variant, OS version, memory, storage, radios and accessory kit | Accepted sample, OEM documentation and feasibility memo. |
| Software and app state | APK version, install method, permissions, account state, update path and rollback note | App test results and sample acceptance matrix. |
| Policy and restrictions | MDM/EMM profile, kiosk or launcher state, allowlist, reset path and remote commands | Policy export, test run and known limitations entry. |
| Branding and packaging | Wallpaper, boot asset where supported, labels, inserts, packaging and asset tags | Branding proof, packaging proof and staging record. |
| Batch staging | Site group, serial capture, app/policy version, SIM/APN, charger, spares and handoff file | Deployment provisioning record. |

Use the build spec with the acceptance matrix. The build spec says what is being reproduced; the acceptance matrix says why it is accepted.
FAQ
Is the build spec written before or after the sample?
A draft spec is written during feasibility, then the production spec is updated after sample acceptance so it reflects the accepted device state.
Does the build spec include commercial pricing?
No. It is a technical and operational scope record. Pricing, payment terms and warranty language belong in commercial documents.
Can the build spec change after production starts?
Yes, but changes should be versioned. App, policy, firmware or packaging changes should create a new build spec revision and a new acceptance check where needed.
