Publication Year
2003
Document Status

Abstract
There is presently no formal protocol for the preparation and handover of a building and its documentation. As a result, many buildings are not being properly handed over on practical completion. Describes BRE’s proposed new handover protocol called ‘Handover of Office Buildings Operations’ (HOBO). It encourages handover to be seen as a process of many activities with emphasis on information exchange, training, demonstration and fine-tuning.
