What does it mean to transfer an asset? - KBCN1786

Transferring an asset means moving ownership of the asset to another organisation.  Please be aware that there can only be one asset owner at any time. If an asset owner changes, the BREEAM platform allows an asset to be transferred to the new owner. Existing asset owners will be able to select the amount of information (associated asset and assessment information) they wish to transfer.

When creating a new asset, should I select my organisation as the Owner or the Assessor? - KBCN1782

Your organisation name will define the available options as follows:

• If you are not an active licensed assessor, you will only be able to select owner.
• If you are an active licensed assessor, you can select either owner or assessor. You must select assessor to allow you to submit the assessment to BRE.
