This is from a glossary sent to me where the target rendition is "Special product specification for reception"
A literal way of looking at this would be Specifications for Special Conditions of Acceptance, maybe?

acceptance requirements for special conditions
Hello,
I'm wondering if you could say "requirements" instead of "specifications."
de réception = acceptance
These are the requirements that need to be accepted for special conditions?
I hope this helps.

Are"requirements" really "specifications" in this case?

Just go with "specifications" to be safe, I guess. It's late here and I can't think right now...lol

Note from asker:
| Well, I don't think I can use "requirements" as "exigences" is already there consistently and cahiers des charges has been rendered by Product specifications... |

Some such formula is quite common; otherwise I agree with bohy that your version was along the right lines.
