We’ll be using the Royal Institute of<br />
British Architects (RIBA) seven stage<br />
process to plan our delivery.<br />
The outputs of the current strategic<br />
definition phase are an outline business<br />
case that sets out:<br />
• the key accommodation requirements<br />
and user needs of the building<br />
• the delivery options that have been<br />
considered<br />
• a business plan for delivery, and<br />
• a project budget.<br />
Of course, much excellent work was done<br />
on strategy definition in 2016. In the next<br />
period, we’ll refresh and update this to<br />
reflect the latest local requirements, for<br />
example, the involvement of the Medical<br />
Centre.<br />
We’ll be using the standard government<br />
‘five case’ methodology when developing<br />
the business case, which considers:<br />
1 What’s the strategy? How do we<br />
appraise delivery options? (Strategic<br />
case)<br />
2 What are the financial costs and<br />
benefits and when do they fall?<br />
(Financial case)<br />
3 What’s the economic impact on our<br />
society? (Economic case)<br />
4 How will we manage project delivery?<br />
(Management case)<br />
5 What is our procurement strategy?<br />
(Commercial case)<br />
At this stage, with our focus on the<br />
outline business case, we’ll emphasise the<br />
strategic case and the outline financial<br />
and economic costs and benefits. As<br />
the work progresses through the design<br />
phases, we’ll increasingly focus in on<br />
the operational detail of the financial,<br />
management and commercial cases.<br />
We’ll be writing shortly to invite your<br />
latest thoughts on user requirements for<br />
the Community Centre, which we’ll use to<br />
update the 2016 plans.<br />
In the meantime, if you’ve any<br />
comments or questions on these plans,<br />
latest thoughts on local requirements for<br />
the Community Centre, or would just like<br />
to contribute any relevant expertise to<br />
the benefit of our community, we’d love<br />
to hear from you - do please get in touch<br />
using the email above. Cllr. Kim Fletcher<br />
