Soft Landings \/ Seasonal Commissioning<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soft landings are meant to manage a building’s performance, both before and after post-occupancy evaluation. Simaxx can become an essential tool for managing soft landings and building performance, whether that means workplace productivity, maintenance, or even specific factors like indoor air quality.

What are Soft Landings?<\/u><\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u2018Soft landings\u2019 are a strategy designed to make the transition from construction to occupancy easier. Not all aspects of new or existing buildings will be perfect when the first building occupants move in, and many building elements within new buildings may require additional assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Soft landings are also meant to close the gap between expected and achieved performance. This can mean employing a concept like seasonal commissioning to start re-commissioning appliances at the right times.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is Seasonal Commissioning?<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seasonal commissioning recognises the need to re-commission heating systems in winter and cooling systems in summer to ensure ideal environmental conditions. The scope of seasonal commissioning can also apply to the management of a building.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this context, commissioning refers to putting the system into a safe and effective state of operation. The commissioning process differs for every appliance, but many have to be re-commissioned to identify defects or ensure that they perform as expected.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The concept behind seasonal commissioning is to eliminate defects. There has been a growing recognition of building efficiency in recent years, and seasonal commissioning aims to eliminate defective or low-performance appliances by commissioning them at specific times.

Post Occupancy Evaluation<\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These can both be measured through post-occupancy evaluations and looking into other post-occupancy changes. A post-occupancy evaluation uses various environmental assessment tools – alongside more direct methods of obtaining feedback – to judge overall user satisfaction and post-occupancy performance.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The “final” building may differ from the originally built environment post-occupancy, whether that is due to maintenance, development of new technology, different operating procedures or changes to other aspects of the property.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Simaxx<\/a>\u00a0provides an invaluable platform for pooling post-occupancy evaluation and analysis. You can connect the Simaxx platform to various environmental assessment tools and countess pieces of software to log other post-occupancy changes in real time, then convert them into reports or specially-formatted documents as needed.

What criteria are important when a building is handed over to the client \/ tenants?<\/u><\/strong>
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Constructing buildings requires a wide range of considerations, and many of these are still relevant during post-occupancy evaluation. This can include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
