Colour Matters International, through its New York Office has created a terrific Sampling/Cost Analysis/Specification programme (also works with all Colour Matters Design Programmes). Best of all, it's cross platform, so it'll run on both Windows as well as Mac OS.

It's easy to use, quick to work through and, best of all, it's priced to sell. It allows you to manage Style Data and minimise communication and production problems.

The DesignSpecs Workbook is a cost-effective way to organise your pre-production workplace. With Style Info, Development Specifications, Work In Progress Reports, Bills of Material, Cost Analysis reports and many others, all interconnected and interactive, it'll take some of the stress out of your life.

The DesignSpecs Workbook is Excel based, so you'll need a working knowledge of:
