FEDERAL SPECIFICATIONS BOARD In 1921 the Federal Specifications

Board was established for the purpose

of coordination and economy in the

procurement of material and services

used by the Government under speci¬

fications prepared in the various

branches thereof, to avoid duplication

of effort, and for the better utilization

of resources and industries. To this

board was assigned the duty of com¬

piling and adopting standard specifi¬

cations for materials and services and

of bringing the specifications into har¬

mony with the best commercial practice

wherever conditions permit, bearing in

mind the desirability of broadening the

field of supply.

been officially adopted and promulgated

by the Federal Specifications Board as

of all departments and independent

establishments of the Government.1
