Storage issues and controls

Space needs must be determined and documented. It is a widely known fact that storage is most frequently the first space affected when planners are looking to reduce the size and/or cost of a project. If you have good detailed documentation it can then be used as a lever to outline the implications of such a reduction. It may directly affect the service, with increased staff costs, or you may be seeking suggestions as to where you are meant to store all the equipment you have identified. Be as detailed and specific as possible so that you can demonstrate clearly the storage space required.
