	[https://www.architecture.com/knowledge-and-resources/resources-landing-page/smart-building-overlay-to-riba-plan-of-work Smart Building Overlay to the RIBA Plan of Work], published by the RIBA in 2024, states in relation to aftercare: ‘The RIBA Plan of Work refers to initiatives aimed at making the use of the building, or subsequent buildings, more effective, including improving the performance of the building systems. Tasks may include gathering feedback on project performance and building performance from post occupancy evaluations. Where smart buildings are concerned, over and above the usual user surveys and system tests, there is the opportunity to evaluate the smart building technology and applications against system performance design information, and any future requirements for refinement and optimisation.’		[https://www.architecture.com/knowledge-and-resources/resources-landing-page/smart-building-overlay-to-riba-plan-of-work Smart Building Overlay to the RIBA Plan of Work], published by the RIBA in 2024, states in relation to aftercare: ‘The RIBA Plan of Work refers to initiatives aimed at making the use of the building, or subsequent buildings, more effective, including improving the performance of the building systems.
