FM tools to ensure healthy performance based buildings

摘要

Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to describe how healthy performance of facilities can bernmonitored and performance data delivered as information flow according to specific user groups' needs.rnDesign/methodology/approach - The context of performance in facilities is described, and a toolrnfor the collection of performance data and communicating the data as relevant information for the facility management (FM) and other stake holders is developed.rnFindings - Various user groups are utilizing the same performance data to ensure optimal andrnhealthy conditions. The integration of performance data to deliver meaningful and exploitable resultsrnfor each user requires collection of the relevant data, compilation of data into information, and delivery of user specific information to the correct instance. A performance sensing system with datarnmanagement was developed into a FM tool for this purpose.rnPractical implications - FM is enabled to real time decision making by sensor-based performancernmonitoring.rnOriginality/value - The results are generic and FM tools may be built on this basis for the specificrninformation and display needs of various FM professionals and other stakeholders.
