This session looks at the reasons why the Ministry of Justice embarked on Capital Asset Investment Planning to the entire HM Prison estate in England and Wales, why they chose ATRIUM to assist them, and the benefits that will result.
The case study describes how MoJ’s Asset Review team developed an ‘end to end’ process for collecting condition data in a standardised form. It explains how MoJ are using this wide ranging asset information to populate a dynamic, analytical database tool which enables them to: assure legal compliance; quantify operational risks and liabilities; drive maintenance prioritisation; and, at the strategy level, inform investment planning decisions by measuring performance and identifying the most efficient capital investment options to meet business objectives.

Property professionals in the Public Sector are in a unique time and place in terms of contributing to the future effectiveness of their organisations. North Somerset Council is a case study showing how it took a its difficult ‘hand’ of cards office estate and turned it to winning advantage. The Property team are facilitating the transformation of the Council’s service delivery; reducing the Council’s estate from 18 buildings to 2, shifting the Council's operational and cultural expectations of property and delivering a strategy where occupiers are users not owners of space. By operating and using a ‘serviced office environment’ - able to share space and ICT assets, the Council and its strategic partners are co-locating and integrating staff and resources. As a result an overall reduction of space is achieved, sustainable income generated and public services improved, thereby getting higher value from public property assets.

Lyndon Watkins, Head of Property & Asset Management, North Somerset Council

In light of public sector cuts, the need for public service providers to consider new and innovative approaches to finance and delivery has never been greater. With c.£250bn held by English councils alone, property assets are a major, yet under-utilised resource. Generating savings within the operational estate and value from non-operational holdings is absolutely fundamental. Billions in latent value could be released by combining across public sector ‘silos’ and engaging effectively with private sector developers and funders.
This session will draw upon proven funding and delivery partnership models and set out an innovative asset management review process which categorises operational and non-operational holdings against a series of property options that balance efficiency, value-capture, regeneration and place-making goals in a holistic and complementary manner.
