Description
Handover Strategy is part of a brand new series providing must-read practical guidance to running efficient and successful projects using the new RIBA Plan of Work 2013. Each guide takes a core project task - in this case those associated with developing and implementing an effective Handover Strategy - and explains the essential activities required at each stage.
Concise and easy to use with a consistent format these guides provide the ultimate quick reference support at your desk or on-site. An authoritative 'how to' full of pragmatic advice, examples and in-text features such as 'hints and tips' that illuminate best practice and clever solutions.
Designed to be used on all projects - large and small - and across all types of procurement, they are task rather than role-oriented acknowledging that a variety of people take on these responsibilities. They are also invaluable for architectural students at Part 3 who are getting to grips with the realities of practice.

Person
A graduate of Dundee and Strathclyde Universities with practice and research experience in a number of fields, including user participation, environmental design and sustainability. His Ph.D. examined the nature of community architecture and design participation and looked in detail at the potential for CAD for participatory design projects. After this he was able to apply and develop this research in practice whilst working as an architect for the Technical Services Agency, a tenant managed Community Technical Aid Centre, where he worked on a variety of housing and other design and rehabilitation projects, and developed further expertise in energy related technical issues. In recent years he has been either the principle or co-investigator on a wider range of external funded projects that are investigating energy and environmental performance, including a range of externally funded projects developing and undertaking Building Performance Evaluation. He is currently an Innovate UK Building Performance Evaluation expert evaluator, and sits on the NHBC standards committee and NHBC Council, and chairs the Scottish Technical Standards Committee. He is Professor of Environmental Architecture and Head of Architectural Technology at the Mackintosh School of Architecture, and Director of the Mackintosh Environmental Architecture Research Unit (MEARU).
