The Services shall include the six facet surveys and gathering of relevant data in accordance with applicable industry standards whilst ensuring consistency of results between the various surveys required.

The Services shall enable the Authority to determine the condition and risk for each facet element and allocate condition categories to its Premises and Locations on a “per facet” basis.

Together with a summary of remedial works required, photos of non-compliant areas and estimated costs to bring each facet to a safe and acceptable condition, the six facet survey shall assist the Authority in prioritising budget allocation to the relevant critical areas.
