Guidelines for the implementation of federal construction tasks

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The guidelines for the implementation of federal construction tasks (RBBau) are administrative regulations . The aim of RBBau is to ensure the economic and efficient handling of federal construction measures in compliance with the principles of the Federal Budget Code (BHO).

history

The first draft was presented on August 1, 1953. At this point in time there were still 11 special building authorities for federal construction work. After the Paris Treaties came into force on May 5, 1955 and the complexity and scope of federal construction tasks increased, a binding version was issued in 1957 with an introductory decree by the Federal Minister of Finance. Since then, the regulations applicable as internal official instructions have been continuously expanded and updated. In order to make the current guidelines available promptly, the RBBau has only been published as an "online version" for some time. The RBBau is published on the Internet portal "Fachinformation Bundesbau (FIB)", formerly "Fachinformationsbörse - Bau und Betrieb". The Federal Ministry for the Environment, Nature Conservation, Building and Nuclear Safety (BMUB ) has been the publisher of the FIB together with the Federal Ministry of Defense (BMVg) for several years .

The guidelines are divided into four parts.

The first part is divided into 12 sections. Section A describes the authorities involved in federal construction projects and their tasks in the planning process. Federal construction tasks are mainly carried out by way of organ lending by the building administrations of the federal states and by the Federal Office for Building and Regional Planning (BBR). The Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) or the BMVg for military buildings is defined as the highest technical authority (OTI) for civil construction tasks . The Federal Agency for Real Estate Tasks (BImA) advises in the context of its owner's interests as well as with regard to the costs of later operation and construction maintenance. Part B describes the integration of construction expenditure in the federal budget and the management of the budget. Parts C, D and F describe the planning process for building maintenance as well as small and large new construction projects. The importance of requirements planning according to DIN 18205 prior to the actual planning process is also pointed out. In Chapter D2, quote: "To prepare a building document, a requirements planning must first be carried out. The requirements planning serves to determine and explain the requirements as an essential basis for further investigations and planning. The requirements must be clearly and conclusively defined. 2.2 The The user basically creates requirements planning. " Section F describes the form of the documents to be created during the planning process. Section G describes the processes during construction. Here there is a focus on cost control and cost control. Section H contains specifications for handover and documentation. Section I describes the handling of assignments and attachments of monetary claims. Section J describes the accounting and auditing processes. Section K contains guidelines for various individual areas. In Section L reference is made to supplementary guidelines from other federal authorities and third parties.

The second part contains uniform templates for requirements planning, estimates and reporting. The third part contains uniform templates for contracts with freelance workers as well as special contract templates. Freelance workers (FbT) are private entrepreneurs who help the authorities with the implementation of construction tasks, such as architectural offices, engineering offices or offices for project management. The fourth part contains appendices.

Federal Audit Office

In the reports of the Federal Court of Auditors to the German Bundestag, the RBBau was repeatedly discussed. The key message of the controlling body is repeated regularly. For example, in a detailed report in 1985, quote: "The Federal Audit Office considers this set of rules to be fundamentally appropriate and sufficient, but sees considerable weaknesses in its application in some areas." A major point of criticism from the Federal Audit Office is always insufficient planning of requirements.
