Why should you use this standard?

It provides briefing recommendations for the design and operational performance of infrastructure assets. Adopting a systematic approach to briefing helps ensure that design takes into account the expected use of an asset during its entire lifetime. This will help improve operational performance and reduce costs, plus increase the value of an asset. It also gives guidance on how to extend the supply chain involvement through to operations and defined periods of aftercare.
