If you a planning a project that includes capital works, such as the repair of a historic structure, the conservation of an archive, or new building work, then you will need to be clear about how you will look after it in the long term. A ten-year management and maintenance plan will help you identify the resources you need and the actions you will need to take to keep the work we have funded in good condition.
