New Asset Strategy guide published

Central to Scottish Government’s Infrastructure Investment Plan (IIP) is a new ‘investment hierarchy’, providing a common framework to inform planning and decision making in public sector infrastructure investment.
 
In support of the IIP and the investment hierarchy and in partnership with Scottish Government, we’ve published the Guide to Property Asset Strategy in the Scottish Public Sector that underlines the importance of making the most of existing assets and taking a collaborative place-based approach to help determine future infrastructure investment.
 
If you’d like further information on the new Guide, please feel free to contact our Asset Strategy team or the Scottish Government Property and Construction Division team.

Can you help us with our website?

Our Comms team is beginning the process of planning a new SFT corporate website and your feedback on what you’d like to see more of (or less of) on it would be very helpful.

The Comms team has produced this short survey (14 questions), some of which are tick boxes and some are for you to provide comments and should only take a few minutes to complete.

The survey is anonymous (unless you wish to take part in further engagement later on in the process – see point No.14 in the survey), so please be frank and honest with your response.

Many thanks for your support.
