FULL BUSINESS CASE 

STAGE : Late in the development of the FBC, when the design is becoming formed but is still open to influence. 

Methodology : One of the following - as advised in the NHSScotland Design Assessment Process's response to the OBC submission:

•  Desktop assessment based on submitted information, supplemented by conversations with project team to clarify any matters.

•  Panel assessment, based on submitted information and supplemented by presentation by, and discussion with, project team including designers.

Submission requirements

For all projects

•  Completed submission pro-forma identifying key contacts and dates.

•  Design Statement , with any updates in benchmarks highlighted.

•  Evidence of completion of self assessment on design in line with the procedures set out in your design statement. 

•  Extract from draft FBC detailing benefits and risks analysis (appendix 3 in SCIM).

•  Completed AEDET review at current stage of design development.

•  3D sketches of design proposals for key spaces identified in Design Statement.

•  Updated list of relevant design guidance to be followed (see section 1.1) and schedule of any derogations in relation to these.

•  Evidence that DDA compliance will be achieved

•  Evidence that Activity Data Base (ADB) is being fully utilised during the preparation of the brief and throughout the design and commissioning process 

For capital investment schemes and projects likely to go through hub, the following information is required to allow the panel to establish that the developed proposals are living up to the promise of the outline proposals at OBC stage and that the technical matters are being addressed.

•  Developed design (Stage E) : main drawings only (construction details need not be submitted) including

o  Site layout showing wider context and landscape proposals

o  Plans rendered to distinguish between use types (circulation, consult) 

o  Elevations showing design in context

•  3D visualisations of the building in context - perspectives should be constructed from a human eye height (rather than birds eye views).

•  Confirmation of Planning Permission and Building Regulation compliance.

For NPD schemes, the following information.

•  Design proposals from the Preferred bidder

•  Site layout showing wider context and landscape proposals

•  Plans rendered to distinguish between use types (circulation, consult) 

•  Elevations showing design in context

•  3D visualisations of the building in context - perspectives should be constructed from a human eye height (rather than birds eye views).

•  Evidence of consultation with Local Authority Planning Department on their approach both to site development and the strategy adopted by the preferred bidder.
