INTRODUCTION TO THE RIBA PLAN OF WORK
First developed in 1963, for half a century the RIBA Plan of Work has been the definitive UK model for the building design and construction process, also exercising significant influence on an international stage.
The RIBA Plan of Work has been a bedrock document for the architects’ profession and the construction industry, providing a shared framework for the organisation and management of building projects that is widely used as both a process map and a management tool, and providing important work stage reference points used in a multitude of contractual and appointment documents and best practice guidance.
The RIBA Plan of Work organises the process of briefing, sketch planning, preparing working drawings, site operations and maintaining into a number of key stages from the stage of inception to feedback. It details the tasks and outputs required and the construction stakeholders involved at each stage which may vary or overlap to suit specific project requirements.
It is mainly elaborated under the following key topics of, * Briefing
Working Drawings
Site Operations
Feed Back

* Feasibility * Outline proposals * Scheme designs * Detail design * Production information * Bills of quantities * Tender action * Project planning * Operations on site
