DIRECT ANSWERA datasheet states tag-specific duty and key design inputs; a specification states project-wide technical and quality rules; a drawing locates geometry and interfaces. Quote and manufacture against a controlled hierarchy that resolves contradictions between them.
Document role matrix
- Datasheet: medium, cases, design conditions and tag values
- Specification: materials, fabrication, inspection and deliverables
- Drawing: dimensions, nozzles, supports and notes
- Revision, precedence and conflict-resolution authority
Relevant manufacturing capability
- Drawing, datasheet and equipment-list manufacturability review
- Self-manufactured and coordinated-supply scope identification
- Technical, quality, document and delivery clarification
Key notes
- No document type automatically overrides a conflicting approved requirement without the contract's precedence rule.
