Building Policy Guideline

The Queensland Government Building Policy Guideline (the guideline), authorised by the Queensland Government Building Policy Framework (BPF) intends to guide and support Queensland Government employees who are applying the BPF.

The BPF establishes key principles, for example, planning, delivery, maintenance, performance and technical requirements for growth and renewal, for the effective and efficient stewardship of buildings owned by the Queensland Government.

The guideline and BPF apply to all Queensland Government departments.

Buildings within the scope of the guideline include, for example, health service facilities, schools, government employee housing, public housing, public‑facing service centres, government office buildings and police, corrective and research facilities.

The scope does not include transport corridor infrastructure such as roads, rail, busways, bridges, boat ramps, jetties and other marine infrastructure, or electricity infrastructure such as powerlines and generation facilities.
