3.10  Strategy for Equipping

3.10.1  The production of a strategy for equipping the facility forms part of the Full Business Case.

3.10.2  The commissioning team and its working groups should establish a procedure to reinforce the Full Business Case strategy and ensure that:

•  transfer items within a department are clearly identified and that this information is incorporated in briefing;

•  a procurement strategy is arranged for replacing those items due for replacement before occupation of the new facility;

•  a procurement strategy is agreed for purchasing new items;

•  a security strategy is agreed;

•  a strategy for removal of packaging materials is agreed; and

•  an asset tagging and recording policy is agreed.

3.10.3 This overall strategy for equipping the new facility should have been agreed by the Project Director and the Project Team as part of the construction project.
