Building Policy Framework

The Queensland Government Building Policy Framework (PDF, 981KB), and Building Policy Guideline consolidate, rationalise and replace the four frameworks which previously governed how departments planned, delivered, and maintained government building projects including the:

  • Capital Works Management Framework
  • Maintenance Management Framework
  • Building Asset Performance Framework
  • Strategic Asset Management Framework.

The Building Policy Framework provides overarching guidance for the strategic and operational management of the Queensland Government’s building construction and maintenance projects.

It also incorporates Best Practice Principles (BPP) for major building construction projects including workplace health and safety systems and standards, commitment to apprentices and trainees, and best practice industrial relations.

A supporting Building Policy Guideline, authorised by the Building Policy Framework, has been developed to assist Queensland Government employees to implement the framework.

The guideline provides building management practitioners in Queensland Government departments with the scope, risk and processes associated with the Queensland Government Asset Lifecycle Management process.

It also provides direction on managing the risks and issues involved in procuring new government buildings, looking after buildings, and finding ways that buildings can be repurposed or renewed to support service delivery.
