This specification might be a local or regional thing or related to a specific company that does the work invilved in the specification.
Where is the job and the architect.
Since the spec is about radiant heating systems, probably installed below a plywood subfloor (the plywood being incidental to the scope of the job) you need to define the type of system and then determine who has the experience do the work spec'd on that system and then come up with a company of choice.
Not knowing the entire scope of the job, but putting 2 and 2 together, I came up with the standard answer of 5.
Here is an example of what I mean.
Virginia Energy Services. LLC
Business type: distributor, service
Product types: geothermal products.
Service types: system installation
Address: 3200 West Moore Street, Richmond, Virginia USA 23230
Telephone: 804-358-2000
Now call the architect and ask him what his spec really means.
This specification might be a local or regional thing. Best bet would be to ask the architect what he really means.
This might be a reference to a specific product or a specific company and/or scope of expertise.
Plywood being generic you could consider it incidental to the actual requirement for a specific radiant heating system. There are several.
Possibly the architect has a company in mind but is spec'ing the installation by what the company has named it in their promotional material. So, if you want to research something you go in the back door by end result (radiant heating system) and apply the name VESPRO in diferent ways.
This is one such example of that:
Virginia Energy Services. LLC
Business type: distributor, service
Product types: geothermal products.
Service types: system installation
Address: 3200 West Moore Street, Richmond, Virginia USA 23230
Telephone: 804-358-2000
VES (Virginia Energy Sevices) probably offered a PRO (fessional) installation of RADIANT HEATING SYSTEMS under a PLYWOOD substrate.
What you tink about dat?
