Accommodation functionality assessment in office buildings
Abstract
Maintenance and investments in buildings should be based on a view of the desired level of function fulfilment of individual buildings and the building stock. In accommodation policy at the building level, this should be expressed in terms of scenarios, e.g. consolidation, extension, conversion, redeployment, sale and demolition. The evaluation of the building is vital in determining the choice of accommodation. To establish the evaluation, two kinds of information must be gathered: the organisation accommodated by the building; and the operating prospects for the building. Presents a model in which five blocks of information are distinguished on building level. The model takes as its point of departure, office organisations owning their accommodation. In selecting the model’s information carriers, reference was made to existing Dutch and other quality assessment systems.
