Applications / PBSA & workforce

A practical room brief for recurring accommodation.

PBSA and workforce programmes can carry large numbers of similar bathrooms. The design still needs a clear finish schedule, service strategy and maintenance brief before repetition becomes useful.

Programme brief

Make repetition easy to inspect.

Recurring accommodation rooms benefit from simple, documented choices. The room brief should state what is fixed, what can vary and which items need routine access after handover. Material and fixture selections remain part of the project specification.

01Group recurring rooms into a small, controlled type matrix.
02Choose surfaces and fixtures against the operator's cleaning and maintenance plan.
03Identify service access, isolation and replaceable components in the drawings.
04Confirm logistics, handling and site assembly responsibilities for the programme.

Technical conversation

Define the room, the service plan and the handover boundary.

SALLY's materials describe a GRC base, panelised enclosure and fitted bathroom interior. Final construction, performance and compliance depend on the approved project design.

Type scheduleStandard, mirrored and accessible variants, with quantities and location references.
Interior selectionSurface finishes, sanitaryware, tapware, storage, accessories, lighting and ventilation requirements.
Maintenance briefAccess points, isolation, replaceable items and cleaning requirements supplied by the operator.
Delivery boundaryPackaging, transport constraints, lifting or assembly strategy and the split between factory and site work.
Project evidenceApproved drawings, finish schedule, sample review and the product-specific evidence requested for the scope.

No claim is made here about an Australian project, local installation rate, service life or maintenance interval.

Before manufacture

Set the operating brief beside the drawing.

Map the room types

Connect every type to a quantity and location.

Check service access

Review connection and maintenance points early.

Test the sample brief

Inspect layout, finishes and maintenance assumptions.

Plan the delivery boundary

Define transport, handling and site responsibilities.
