The preparation of a Property Disposal Plan (PDP) is considered an integral component of an agency’s Total Asset Management strategic planning and budgeting cycle.

It should:

1. Demonstrate a clear linkage to an agency’s asset strategy;
2. Separately identify properties;

• with strategic or non-strategic values, refer to Premier's Memoranum 2003-3 Attachment A, Definitions;
• still being used for core service delivery but are underutilised and requiring further assessment; and
• that are vacant or formally declared surplus to core service delivery requirements.

3. Clearly define disposal strategies for assets, including nominating preferred;
