Review recurring problems and changes
Look back at faults that keep returning, worsening defects and changes in how the property is used. Check temporary fixes against proposed projects. Confirm when the next work can happen, how contractors will get in and what you need to decide.
Review the next period
Work out which orders, specialist appointments, closures and spending decisions must be arranged before your next review. Explain the remaining problems and significant changes clearly to whoever authorises property work.
Questions to resolve
Should every asset be inspected monthly?
No. Check that the required tasks for each item are being followed. Individual assets have their own schedules; this is a review of progress.
What makes an action useful?
Write down what is wrong, who will act, what they must do or decide, when it is due and how completion will be shown.
