Abstract

In the field of environmental psychology a long tradition exists in Post-Occupancy Evaluation (POE) or building-in-use studies. Nowadays facilitymanagers and real estate managers seem to show a growing interest in expost evaluation of buildings, too, particularly in connection to ex anteassessments in the briefing and design phase. The aim of this paper is to discussgeneral objectives and methods of POE and to show how research findings can beused in (re-)designing and management of office buildings. The approach isillustrated by a case study of an office building of the Dutch Ministry ofAgriculture. This building has been assessed by using the WEDI workingenvironment diagnostic tool. The results are used to support decision making in thepresent renovation of the ministries headquarter in The Hague and the real estatemanagement of other ministerial buildings. The paper ends with a series of lessonslearnt from a cross-case analysis of eight office buildings and a preview into workin progress on a search for a satisfaction index that might be used inaccommodation policy and for benchmarking purposes.
