  8. Credit • Mark Way - 1990s • Transforming experience through period in residence on handed-over project • Mark Way - 2004 • Developed preliminary Scope of Service for Soft Landings • UBT / BSRIA - 2009 • Soft Landings Framework • Download in PDF for free via www.bsria.co.uk/bookshop www.usablebuildings.co.uk

  9. What is Soft Landings? • A framework of activities for all key members of a project team • A process for designers and constructors to improve operational performance after handover • Gives more clarity at the inception and briefing stages about client needs and operational outcomes • Requires performance targets (such as energy use) to be set and regularly reality-checked through the project • Places greater emphasis on building readiness activities • Provides for a Soft Landings team on site during the settling-in period

  10. Soft Landings User Group • Interdisciplinary user discussion • Test process • Share experience • Highlight barriers • Share data • Contractual implications • Create database of case studies • Define real examples of benefits

  11. Convergence: successes Industry recognition BSRIA and the UBT (BSRIA SL User Group) Soft Landings Framework Government recognition Innovation and Growth Team Low Carbon Construction Soft Landings a requirement Technology Strategy Board (BPE programme) Research needs Overtures made by Soft Landings User Group and BSRIA BREEAM credit Soft Landings in BREEAM 2011

  12. Convergence: work in progress Industry Initiatives WRAP consultation on Carbon Efficiency Plan Soft Landings as justification BSRIA ITT and PQQ, link to WRAP proposed equivalents for CEP? Reference in contract forms JCT & NEC contract recognition and revision Action by JCT via RICS Government procurement Schools procurement programme via PfS Pilot programme

  13. Soft Landings Revelations • Building projects will be judged on their operational outcomes, not their design specifications • Practical completion will no longer be the point at which a project team is paid and begins to disband • The Defects Liability period will be replaced by Soft Landings-type processes • Design teams will take greater responsibility for long-term performance of the buildings they create • Final payment in future will be on achievement against a range of Key Performance Indicators
