Why Poe Differ From Other Evaluation Techniques


According to Preiser (2002) he clearly sated that POE differs from other evaluations of building performance in that it focuses on the requirements of building occupants, including health, safety, security functionality and efficiency, psychological comfort, aesthetic quality, and satisfaction. Further he discussed POE has become broader in scope and purpose, POE has come to mean any activity that originates out of an interest in learning how a building performs once it is built (if and how well it has meet expectations) and how satisfied building users are with the environment that has been created.

On the other hand POE has been seen as one of a number of practices aimed at understanding design criteria, predicting the effectiveness of emerging designs, reviewing completed designs, supporting building activation and FM, and linking user response to the performance of buildings. POE is also evolving toward more process – oriented evaluations for planning, programming, and capital asset management. (Preiser, 2002)
