Such Drawings And Specifications Are Hereby Made A Part Of This Contract Form

Use a Such Drawings And Specifications Are Hereby Made A Part Of This Contract template to make your document workflow more streamlined.

What this contract attachment does

This form makes the referenced drawings and specifications part of the written contract. It identifies the technical documents that define the parties’ agreed scope, materials, dimensions, performance requirements, or construction details, so the attachment can be read with the main agreement rather than treated as an informal reference. Complete the attachment by matching its title or revision to the contract, checking that every referenced sheet is present, and obtaining signatures from the parties authorized to approve the agreement. Under ESIGN and applicable state law, an electronic signature can support execution when intent, consent, attribution, and record retention are established.

Who uses this contract attachment

Construction teams

Construction owners, general contractors, architects, and subcontractors use the attachment to connect approved drawings, specifications, change details, and signature evidence to a project agreement. The sender should verify revision numbers, sheet counts, and incorporated references before requesting signatures.

Contract administrators

Commercial landlords, vendors, consultants, and legal teams use the form when a contract depends on technical exhibits. signNow can route the attachment for review and signature, preserve the completed record, and provide an audit trail showing who approved the referenced documents.

Features for drawings and specifications

The workflow focuses on revision control, authorized approval, signature evidence, and reliable storage for technical contract attachments.

Controlled exhibits

Attach the exact drawings and specifications identified by title, revision, or sheet reference, reducing uncertainty about which technical documents govern the signed agreement.

Assigned approvals

Place signature, initials, date, and approval fields directly on the contract attachment so each authorized party’s action is visible and attributable.

Audit evidence

Capture email, timestamp, IP, and completion history in an audit trail that accompanies the signed contract record for later review.

Reusable workflow

Use signNow templates for recurring contract packages while updating revision-specific drawings and specifications before every send.

Mobile access

Review and sign from a desktop or mobile workflow, helping field and office teams handle technical attachments without printing them.

System connections

Connect completed documents with storage or business systems such as Procore, NetSuite, Google Drive, Box, and Microsoft 365.

Record-keeping practices for contract attachments

Protect the signed drawings, specifications, audit evidence, and retention context as one contract record.

Preserve the signed contract package

Keep the signed contract attachment, completed audit trail, and any referenced drawing or specification together. Restrict archive access to personnel responsible for contract administration, and preserve the original file format so the record remains readable and reproducible throughout its required business retention period.

Export audit evidence after completion

Export signNow’s audit trail immediately after completion and associate it with the contract number, parties, and execution date. The export should show signer identity, timestamps, document history, and completion evidence rather than relying on an email notification as the sole record.

Archive records in controlled storage

Use encrypted storage with access logging for completed drawings, specifications, and signature records. Apply role-based permissions, prohibit local unapproved copies, and test retrieval periodically so the contract attachment can be produced promptly during a dispute, audit, or project review.

Apply the governing retention rule

Set the retention period from the governing contract, project, tax, or industry rule instead of applying a universal period. For records containing protected health information, HIPAA requires six years under 45 CFR §164.530(j), while other contract records require counsel-approved schedules.

Challenges when signing technical attachments

  • Uploading an outdated drawing revision can make the signed contract attachment conflict with the scope, pricing, or construction obligations stated in the main agreement.
  • Leaving technical exhibits outside the signed record makes it harder to show which specifications each party reviewed and approved during execution.
  • Sending the attachment to an unauthorized project representative can weaken attribution and create a dispute over whether the organization approved the referenced work.
  • Including personal data, patient information, or unnecessary financial details in drawings and specifications increases disclosure risk when recipients download or forward the completed contract.

Questions about completing this contract form

Use these answers to resolve revision, signing, evidence, plan, privacy, and state-law questions before completion.

Upload the complete PDF again and verify that every drawing and specification page is present before sending. signNow can detect fillable fields, but the sender remains responsible for confirming revision identifiers, sheet counts, and referenced exhibits match the main contract.

Open the document in signNow and check that the signature, initials, date, and approval fields are assigned to the correct email address. Resend only after confirming the signer’s role and authority under the underlying contract.

Use signNow’s audit trail and completion record to review timestamps, signer activity, and document history. ESIGN and UETA focus on intent, consent, attribution, and record retention; the audit trail helps preserve those transaction facts.

Business includes legally binding eSignatures, audit trails, templates, and mobile apps at $8 per user monthly when billed annually. Paid subscription plans include 100 signature invites per user per year, with overage fees applying afterward.

For healthcare drawings or specifications containing protected health information, signNow identifies HIPAA compliance as requiring a business associate agreement. Confirm that the agreement and your access, retention, and disclosure controls cover the specific workflow.

If the attachment is part of a deed, will, family law decree, court filing, or another excluded record, do not assume an electronic signature is sufficient. Check the applicable state recording, notarization, or filing rule before sending.
