“…The goal of the method is to provide a structured method that can be used to express the knowledge of domain experts for a particular system or organisation (Mayer et al, 1995). The method manages to remain simple while maintaining a high descriptive power (Dorador and Young, 2000).…”

“…The logical decisions include: and (&), or (O), and exclusive or (X) and synchronous or asynchronous start and finish of the processes. The objects are represented as circles that represent their different states connected with arrows that have UOB's referents to indicate the entry, transition, state and exit conditions (Mayer et al, 1995). The IDEF3 notation is very useful for communicating with collaborators within a system.…”

“…The objectives are both to inform the knowledge base system with examples of best practices and also identify the bottlenecks in the process to suggest improvements. Once the description is completed, it will to inform novice building practitioners and raise their performance to a level comparable to that of an expert (Mayer et al, 1995).…”

“…However, the models cannot support information process flows or capture concurrent processes and there is no consideration of time (Mayer and DeWITTE, 1999). One the other hand, the IDEF3 method addresses these issues as it has been created for capturing descriptions about sequences of activities while identifying critical decision points or milestones of the process from different perspectives (Mayer et al, 1995).…”

Purpose -Building performance analysis is usually performed after the design and construction documents are produced resulting in lost opportunities. The purpose of this research is to develop a BIM-enabled sustainable design process model that identifies critical actions in the design process along with the information and level of detail that facilitate an informed and timely decision. Design/methodology/approach -A number of research methods have been adopted; these include extensive literature review and eleven in-depth interviews with industry practitioners (sustainable building design experts, early BIM adopters). Findings -Project delivery methods have a significant effect on the sustainable outcome of buildings. The development of a structured process can assist sustainable design practice among building professionals. Learning from implemented projects, that have utilised BIM processes, facilitates the scope of creating this process and advises future projects in order to prevent failures. Process mapping is essential to streamline the process, support key project processes and help the design team manage their own responsibilities and deliverables required by them. Originality/value -The identification of the gap and the need for a structured process for sustainable building design for BIM execution is discussed. The synergies that exist between BIM, building performance modelling, BREEAM assessment and the RIBA Plan of Work are shown. The effect that project delivery has on sustainable design outcome has been established. A coordinated collaborative design process model is presented based on the findings from interviewing early adopters.

“…Functional decomposition is supported at language level by most process modelling languages, including ArchiMate [2], BPMN [8], EPC [9] and IDEF-0 and IDEF-3 [10]. The decomposition of subsystems through the hierarchic classification of process models has also been applied to Petri nets [11] and BPEL [12].…”

PurposeSustainability considerations are often treated as an add-on to building design, following ad-hoc processes for their implementation. The purpose of this study was to investigate, model and facilitate the early stages of building information modelling (BIM) enabled sustainable building design (SBD) by formalising the ad-hoc working relationships of the best practices in order to standardise the optimal collaboration workflows.Design/methodology/approachFour stages of data collection were conducted, including a total of 32 semi-structured interviews with industry experts from 17 organisations. Fourteen “best practice” case studies were identified, and roles and responsibilities, resources, information exchanges, interdependencies, timing and sequence of events and critical decisions were examined.FindingsThe research classified the critical components of SBD into a framework utilising content and thematic analyses. These components were coordinated explicitly into a systematic process, which followed concurrent engineering (CE) principles utilising Integrated DEFinition (IDEF) 3 structured diagramming technique. Then, Green BIM Box (GBB) workflow management prototype tool was developed to analyse communication and delivery of BIM-enabled SBD in a centralised system.Originality/valueThis study represents an improvement to previous attempts to systematically define the BIM-enabled SBD process for the early stages. The results support the idea that a transparent SBD process, which follows specified communication patterns, can assist in achieving sustainability efficiently in terms of time, cost and effort.
