Elements and Performance Criteria
- Define and plan scope of own contribution to design project.
- Nature of project, location and demographics of occupants or users are researched and noted.
- Service levels, fees and timelines for reviews of design documentation at different stages of development projects are confirmed with clients.
- Access and use compliance requirements and project’s access and use design policy and brief are reviewed and confirmed with client, design team and other key stakeholders.
- Systems for the exchange, naming and storage of project design documentation and for communicating with the design team, client and stakeholders are planned and implemented.
- Review design documentation at required stages of design process.
- Level of service for review of design documentation at different stages of design process is confirmed and applied.
- Design documentation is received, named and stored following agreed protocols, at different stages of design process according to service level agreement.
- Design documentation is examined in relation to access and use compliance requirements and the project’s access and use design policy and brief, and anomalies in access and use provisions are detected.
- Details of access and use design issues are researched or deduced and noted.
- Report on access and use issues is prepared, distributed and discussed according to service level agreement, and further actions are agreed with client.
- Develop solutions to access and use design issues.
- Best practice solutions relevant to reported access and use issues are sourced and analysed in relation to project’s access and use design policy and brief.
- Practical and effective solutions to access and use issues are explored and sketches made or explanations noted.
- Solutions are presented and explained to client, design team and other stakeholders, as required, to facilitate selection of best solution.
- Selected solutions are developed and specifications detailed, including compliance references, exclusion report or management plan as required.
- Consult and report on project finalisation.
- Access and use issues arising during the construction phase of projects are analysed and solutions proposed to design team, client and stakeholders.
- Accepted access and use design modifications are recorded with exclusion report or management plan as required.
- Access and use report is prepared for finalisation of project, detailing recommended and ‘as built’ access and use solutions with rationale for selected solutions and changes.
- Information valuable to ongoing debate and development of access and use principles, standards and solutions is documented and disseminated to relevant professional communities.
