The Asset Management Strategy provides a framework for the strategic direction of SBHA Assets until 2026 and how the asset expectations and aspirations will be met and is supported by the 30-Year Business Plan.
It confirms the progress and current position and contains the strategic themes, projects, and objectives along with the associated action plan to be delivered during the life of the strategy to achieve the Strategic Plan objectives.
