DECISION SUPPORT SYSTEM PROTOTYPE
The CALECHE Decision Support System (DSS) is an online interactive tool which serves as a platform for the planning of a sustainable renovation project on a historical building. It helps project teams consider the various stakeholders involved and benefits and risks of possible interventions across a range of relevant values.
The DSS has been developed to a Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of 5, indicating a technology validated in a relevant environment using realistic prototypes and conditions. It is to be used for research purposes only as it has not been developed to a commercial standard. All aspects of the DSS published on his page are held under the license CC BY-NC-ND 4.0.
Which types of buildings does it target?
-
It targets historic buildings of commercial scale, which need renovation and/or are considered for a new usage.
-
The tool targets in priority public-owned buildings such as universities, hospitals, schools, residential housings, etc. But it can also be used by private organisations owning these same types of buildings.
Who is it for?
-
It is for teams in charge of managing the above-mentioned buildings and of deciding the related renovation projects.
-
For instance: asset managers within municipalities, local or national public institutions; asset managers within private organisations handling building stocks; and the team of specialists8 they will gather around their project (architects, engineers, consultants, conservation experts, etc).
