Why it matters

Class is shorthand, not a warranty of quality or suitability.

What to request

Ask what evidence supports the class and compare the features that matter to the requirement.

Planning example

Evaluate building and suite performance directly against cost. The example organizes arithmetic or evidence only; the transaction documents and facts determine the result.

Related decisions

Connect this term to the area, cost, building, flexibility and document provisions elsewhere in the office decision file.

Evidence boundary: office availability and quoted economics change. Confirm current premises, authority, area, costs, permitted use and documents for the specific transaction. Read the methodology.
