The scope of the Performance Specification is very project dependent.
The range of high-level outputs required in a government facility project may typically cover some or all of the following:
• Demolition of existing buildings.
• The provision of serviced accommodation.
• Alterations to existing buildings.
• Provision of new/altered forms of access to the facility (e.g. roads, disabled access).
• Provision of recreational, sports, parking or other external facilities.
• Building, installations and asset maintenance.
• Site and landscaping maintenance.
• Cleaning and waste management.
• Furniture and equipment.
• Energy management.
• Caretaking/site supervisory services.
• Security and safety.
• Catering.
Information technology and other support activities (e.g. reception, administration, printing, photocopying, library, records management) could be delivered under the P3 but are not usually included. This may be due to a lack of market interest, inadequate value for money or that the service is integral to the provision of the core public service. These assumptions need to be fully tested when undertaking the initial feasibility assessment and business case (see Management Framework: Assessment).
