Abstract

This paper describes a formal approach to manage the life cycle requirements of facilities. Two tools are used to support the performance approach and to make sure about the serviceability of the building. Firstly, Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is utilised to agree on project and design objectives. Secondly, a Requirements Management system (EcoProP) still under development and experimental implementation is applied to assure that the user requirements are met. These tools are used in two different research projects that have environment-friendly objectives as their common nominator.
