Budget Year Minus 1 - National Facilities Consultative Forum

The National Facilities Consultative Forum (NFCF) meets to discuss the merits of the draft Estate Maintenance program and to finalise risk assessments and project listings. Project listing can be amended or altered depending on the outcomes of the NFCF. The NFCF usually occurs in early November.

Outcome:
Draft National Estate Maintenance Program is sent to the Defence Estate Committee (DEC) Secretariat, ready for the December meeting of the DEC, where the draft Estate Maintenance Program is considered and approved.

Activity Considerations

1) NFCF members examine and review the risk assessment consistency between the Groups and the project listing to be included in the Estate Maintenance Program.

The DEMS Screens used in this activity is the National Priority List (see example below) that lists the draft Estate Maintenance Program where Risk Managed Works projects are sorted by Risk Priority. The facility allows projects to be forced in and out of the program as required by the NFCF.
Project listings included in the draft Estate Maintenance Program can be amended in accordance with discussions and subsequent decisions at the NFCF workshop.

2)  Following the workshop, the agreed draft Estate Maintenance Program is sent to the DEC Secretariat a week prior to the December DEC.  

National Priority List

All projects submitted through the Regional and National Bids are prioritised for consideration in the draft Estate Maintenance program using the National Priority List in the Program Development Module of DEMS.
