The AMP informs all aspects of planned capital investment. In particular, issues included in the Authority's Planned Replacement Programme (PRP) use condition information in the AMP Database to prioritise. The authority consulted on changes to this PRP prioritisation method early in 2006, with the changes adopted from 2007/8. The consultation paper can be found at Schools Capital Consultation.
The process is also explained in more detail in Staffordshire's revised AMP Statement of Priorities.
