The Construction Specifications Institute (CSI) is an organization that keeps and changes the standardization of construction language as it pertains to building specifications.
CSI provides structured guidelines for specification writing in their Project Resource Manual, (formerly called the Manual of Practice (MOP).

The Construction Specifications Institute codes refer to the 50 divisions of construction, as defined by the Construction Specifications Institute (CSI)s MasterFormat.
The standard is the most widely used standard for organizing specifications and other written information for commercial and institutional building projects in the U.S. and Canada. It provides a master list of divisions, and section numbers and titles within each division, to follow in organizing information about a facilitys construction requirements and associated activities. Standardizing the presentation of such information improves communication among all parties involved in construction projects.

MasterFormat is the specifications-writing standard for most commercial building design and construction projects in North America. It lists titles and section numbers for organizing data about construction requirements, products, and activities. By standardizing such information, MasterFormat facilitates communication among architects, specifiers, contractors and suppliers, which helps them meet building owners' requirements, timelines and budgets.
