Previously project Spec not require, but spec incoming project require. If we performed, the cost increase (many point hardnes need to performed)

Was your company aware of this requirement when you put in a price for this job ?
If nobody read the contract documents properly because as you said "previous specification not require it" then you have no one to blame but yourselves.
Please remember, a client can specify anything they want in a specification - no matter how crazy it may seem.
It is your job as a contractor to review that specification thoroughly before pricing the job - making sure you include the clients seemingly crazy requirements in your price.
Good luck,
