a case for post occupancy evaluation
DESCRIPTION
My presentation to a joint event of Constructing Excellence Berkshire and The Thames Valley Property Forum on 17 May 2012. In this short presentation I asked proposed a number of value propositions that POE could bring to organisations involved in and impacted by construction projects.As I see it the two most encounters barriers to using POE are those of resources generally and a reluctance or apathy towards performance measurement. barriers to a greater take-up of POE. The links on the last slide of the presentation are for further information on the topic.TRANSCRIPT

Introduction
What is POE?
Nothing New
• Operational Review:3 - 6 months after occupation. – Review of the process.
– how well is the building working?
– Are any urgent problems that need resolving?
• Project Review: 12 - 18 months after occupation. – How does the building perform under a variety of
conditions.
– Are there gaps for longer term needs
• Strategic Review: 3 - 5 years after occupation. – Benefits realised?
– Does the building may still meet the need?
Timelines
You, Your Supply Chain, Your Customers and Clients • KPI’s. • Defects Management. • Better design, better building performance. • Building performance as designed. • Strategic benefits management • Competitive advantage (the value of data)
