Post Occupancy Evaluation (POE) has its origins in Scotland and the United States and has been used in one form or another since the 1960s. Preiser and colleagues define POE as "the process of evaluating buildings in a systematic and rigorous manner after they have been built and occupied for some time".
Building performance evaluation is the process of systematically comparing and matching the performance in use of building assets with explicitly documented or implicitly criteria for their expected performance. In the PBB approach is essential matching and comparing demand and supply.
Chapter 9 of the building code requires owners and facility managers to operate and maintain buildings in a manner that will achieve the designed performance goals. It implements procedures for pre- and post- occupancy commissioning to evaluate the building's operation, performance, and maintenance.
Zhang et al. (2019) examined renewable energy assessment methods and different assessment systems, and noted that LEED-US addresses management problems at the pre-occupancy phase. [129] Interest in Post‐occupancy evaluation (POE), the process of evaluating building performance after occupation, is increasing. This is due in part to concerns ...
A certificate of occupancy is a legal document that proves a structure, such as a house or office building, is safe to inhabit. In addition to the property address and owner, a certificate of ...
In 2022, researchers conducted a pre- versus post-occupancy evaluation of approximately 1,300 workers transitioning to WELL-certified offices from non-WELL certified offices. [8] Using pre- and post-occupancy surveys, overall satisfaction rates improved from 42% (pre-occupancy) to 70% (post-occupancy) across all parameters. [ 8 ]
Next steps In-between the final walk-through and the closing, keep in touch with your real estate agent. If you found any issues during the walk-through, your agent will be communicating with the ...
Commissioning procedures require a collaborative team effort and 'should' begin during the pre-design or planning phase of the project, through the design and construction phases, initial occupancy phase, training of operations and maintenance (O&M) staff, and into occupancy (for warranty and future re-commissioning).
