When adding new master cyclic renewal items, it is mandatory to provide a Code, Description, Frequency, and at least one UniFormat Element, so items and their replacement costs can be rolled up into building components or systems.
This data is extremely critical and should be given considerable thought before proceeding. The Master Items represent the specific cyclic renewals items for all facilities, utilities, and grounds including Code, Description, UniFormat classification, and Frequency in years (life expectancy).
Think carefully about your choices, this data impacts your long-term time commitments to edit and maintain your Cyclic Renewal database. It is a question of the specificity you need on future cyclic renewals versus the time needed to create and maintain the data. More specificity translates to much more time to maintain the data. Master Renewal data can be simple at the start and increase in complexity later as needed.
