ÖZYüklenici firmalar, çevresel performanslarını iyileştirerek çevre sorunlarının çözümüne katkı sağlamanın yanı sıra, maliyetlerini düşürmekte, böylece uluslararası pazarda rekabet avantajı sağlayabilmekte ve kar paylarını artırabilmektedir. Araştırmalar, çevresel performansı ölçme amacıyla kullanılan göstergelerin faaliyet ve hedeflere uygun seçilmesinin çevresel performans üzerindeki olumlu etkisine işaret etmektedir. Ancak yüklenici firmaların faaliyetlerine özgü, genel kabul görmüş ve kapsamlı bir çevresel performans ölçme yaklaşımı bulunmamaktadır. Araştırmada mülakatlar, alan çalışması ve vaka analizi içeren aşamalı bir yöntem ile yüklenici firmaların çevresel performans ölçümü için uygun göstergeler ağırlıklarıyla belirlenmiş ve bu göstergelere dayanarak Türk yüklenici firmaların çevresel performansları çeşitli yönleriyle analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmanın bulguları ışığında inşaat sektöründe çevresel performansın iyileştirilmesi için stratejiler önerilmektedir.Anahtar Kelimeler: Çevresel performans, performans ölçümü, sürdürülebilir yapım, Türk yüklenici firmaları.

“…Resources required, simplicity, validity and reliability of an indicator, compatibility with other indicators, risks related to leaking sensitive company information and managers who lack capabilities and motivation, are among the implementation and use factors that need to be recognised in the design of indicators. In a recent study of environmental performance monitoring in the Swedish building and real estate management sector, Toller et al (2013) develop six indicators; as a result of data unavailability, they report difficulties related to the application of two of these indicators, namely, use of hazardous chemical products, and generation of waste. Particularly in refurbishment projects, the waste might be hazardous (Sezer, 2013).…”

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to analyse the use of building refurbishment productivity and sustainability indicators among construction contractors. Design/methodology/approach – Theories of organisational culture and incentives predict that contractor size affects dependency on routines and the implementation of company policies on site. Eight semi-structured interviews were conducted with three general or site managers of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) and five site managers of large contractors involved in housing and office refurbishment projects in Sweden. Findings – Both SMEs and large contractors track resource use on refurbishment sites. Resource use is measured through cost recording systems and a few area-based key indicators. SMEs may have sustainability policies, but routines derived from such policies were weak on site. However, for SMEs, refurbishment technology choices are often made by the client’s designer, and sustainability requirements are included in the contract specifications. For large contractors, sustainability policies are more developed and are reflected in site routines. Large contractors are usually public companies with stakeholders who expect such routines. Practical implications – Contractors that develop strategies for increasing productivity and sustainability can benefit from a deeper understanding of implementation issues. The outcome of this paper is useful while designing new indicators and building certification schemes. Originality/value – Much has been written about key performance indicators for construction, but little attention has been paid to indicators for building refurbishment, or the use of measurement routines.

email AbstractSustainability has become an essential part of the construction industry within the last decade. Manufacturers have changed products and production methods in response to this clarion call. Masonry materials exhibit many attributes that make them excellent choices based on sustainability criteria. These are expounded on by masonry material manufacturers and their associations, but do they match the opinions of others in the construction industry? A review of current statements and publications from masonry material manufacturers' websites provides an idea of what the masonry industry thinks of the sustainability of its products. In addition, websites of national associations representing masonry materials were examined to determine how the masonry industry is responding to the desire for more sustainable materials and buildings. Authors of papers at the World Sustainable Building Conference (SB11 Helsinki) provide access to their viewpoint of masonry as a sustainable material. This third-party collection represents how other members of the design and building industry view masonry. Those two viewpoints do not always coincide. The masonry industry faces several challenges to maintain its preeminence as the provider of sustainable materials.
