## In this Market Guide, you’ll learn more about:

- **Compliance is the new catalyst.** Gartner identifies PPWR and EPR legislation as the primary forces driving urgent adoption of Specification Management systems — with consequences that include fines and loss of market access.
- **AI starts with specification data.** Gartner validates that AI and machine learning are only as good as the data underneath them. Without structured, centralized specs, AI initiatives can’t deliver value.
- **Implementation serves are essential.** This year’s guide highlights the growing importance of expert-led implementation and data migration — an area where Specright’s team has migrated millions of specs and accelerated time-to-value for global brands.
