“…The expenditure on social housing, to build or to maintain the building stock, reachs 2.20% (76,194.06 MEUR) in the EU, but in Portugal barely surpasses 0,01% (5.34 MEUR), 2013 values [5]. 2 Households, in EU 28 countries, used 52,1% of natural gas and oils derivates as main energy source for space heating, 2016 (Eurostat). 3 Households, in Portugal, used 27,7% of natural gas and oils derivates as main energy source for space heating, 2016 (Eurostat).…”

“…The development of a building's low-cost renovation plan, founded on new constructive solutions, improves the envelopes' response, allows the decrease of maintenance's needs and expenses, and the increase of user's comfort while aiming the investment period reimbursement. Based on the "Renovation or Rehabilitation -Decisive Gains (RoR-DG)," (Nuno D. Cortiços) benefits were accounted considering achieved savings minus investment: relying on the system's performance, as rated by the key indicators of "Facilities Maintenance Management Model" (Igal M. Sohet and Sarel Lavy) [1] [2]. The Program defined guidelines to update the envelope systems to meet the contemporary requirements outlined for nZEB, equal to those required for new buildings in the European Union territory.…”

In the 80's and 90's, the various Portuguese Governments set the goal of rehousing the majority of the low-income families without a proper house, through a program to build Social Housing. Municipalities assumed the role and developed the solutions to meet the needs. The necessities defined priorities, efforts were directed to quantity rather than quality: 120,000 apartments distributed by 24,500 buildings, in 25 years. Designed in-house or contracted out with a conventional approach and a limited budget, around 500 euros/m 2 . The construction was outsourced and hasty, due to time constraints. Although the construction were common, in technology and design solutions, some architectural prizes, National and International, were given to authorial projects. These became symbols of the progressive Portugal Architectural Heritage and of the success of the Portuguese Social Experience, recognized as architectural points of interest, for tourist and specialists. As time goes by, maintenance falls short and requires critical conservation, tenants demand rehabilitation and renovation, mostly to situations related to the loss of comfort and quality, associated with water damages in the constructive solutions. The research regarded the latest European Union policies, on GHG emissions and energy consumption reductions in new building design, to pursue the nZEB's, "nearly Zero Energy Building(s)" concept. By developing a low-cost building renovation founded on new constructive solutions to actualize the envelopes' response: decreasing maintenance's needs and expenses, increasing user comfort while aiming the reimbursement of the investment period. Based on the "Renovation or Rehabilitation -Decisive Gains (RoR-DG)," (Nuno D. Cortiços) benefits were accounted considering achieved savings minus investment: relying on the system's performance, as rated by the key indicators of "Facilities Maintenance Management Model" (Igal M. Sohet and Sarel Lavy). This approach was applied to measure the impact of the first Eco-Neighborhood, applied to a Lisbon social housing park (Bairro da Boavista, Monsanto). Although the Program's positive achievements, the results show a low impact on efficiency. For the future actions it is advisable an overall thermal reinforcement, follow-up measures, additional financial support, and the tenants' commitment.

“…In Israel, Shohet (2006) developed an integrated maintenance management model for public acute care hospital facilities, for which 11 KPIs, classified into four categories, were used for the monitoring, management, and maintenance of healthcare facilities. The architecture of the developed model and part of the implementation procedures were elaborated in a subsequent article (Lavy, Shohet 2007).…”

Various post-occupancy evaluation schemes have been introduced for assessing building performance but one tailored for large-scale commercial buildings remains to be seen. Intended to develop a scheme for evaluating the performance of engineering facilities in existing commercial buildings, a multi-stage study was carried out in a dense-built metropolis-Hong Kong. Reported here is the part of work based on an extensive literature review. Considering the characteristics of relevant evaluation schemes, the requirements for useful performance evaluation and the criteria for selecting key performance indicators (KPIs), an integrated process-hierarchy model was formed for identifying applicable indicators for the intended scheme. A total of 71 indicators, classified into five categories: (i) physical, (ii) financial, (iii) task and equipment related, (iv) environmental, and (v) health, safety and legal, were identified. Their representations and their empirical applications, which are helpful for the strategic management of existing buildings, are also described.

“…The identification of a set of specific key performance indicators (KPIs) [3,4] helps the performance assessment and strategic planning. An integrated healthcare facility management model has been proposed [5] to hierarchically analyze healthcare FM core parameters, showing that an analytical quantitative model may significantly contribute to a better understanding of facility management performance.…”

A Methodology for a Performance Information Model to Support Facility Management

et al. 2019

Current facility management practice relies on different systems which require new technologies to integrate and manage information more easily. Building information modeling offers a good opportunity to improve facility information management by providing a unified platform for various data sources rather than an intuitive information interface. Although current research trends reveal that there is a continuously growing interest in facility management aided by building information modeling, an integrated model is still hard to obtain. This paper aims at developing a novel methodology based on building information modeling and facility management systems integration, underpinned by a performance information model. The implementation process of a performance information model is described, including information technologies involved, the data and process requirements, and the building performance assessment methods used. A first pilot case-study has been conducted with regards to surgery rooms in healthcare buildings. The proposal can support condition-based maintenance work schedule, as well as the achievement of organizational, environmental, and technical requirements. Among the practical implications found: Improved technological and environmental performances assessment; better visualization of building condition; improved decision-making process; facilitated maintenance tasks planning and maintenance records management.
