Deliverables
BIM for Heritage, Developing the Asset Information Model, published by Historic England in January 2020, defines deliverables as: ‘Goods or services that will be provided upon completion of a project.’
Guide for Effective Benefits Management in Major Projects, published by the Infrastructure and Projects Authority in October 2017, defines a deliverable as: ‘An output of a process or project.’
The National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), published by the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government in December 2024, states:
To be considered deliverable, sites for housing should be available now, offer a suitable location for development now, and be achievable with a realistic prospect that housing will be delivered on the site within five years. In particular:
a) sites which do not involve major development and have planning permission, and all sites with detailed planning permission, should be considered deliverable until permission expires, unless there is clear evidence that homes will not be delivered within five years (for example because they are no longer viable, there is no longer a demand for the type of units or sites have long term phasing plans).
b) where a site has outline planning permission for major development, has been allocated in a development plan, has a grant of permission in principle, or is identified on a brownfield register, it should only be considered deliverable where there is clear evidence that housing completions will begin on site within five years.
