To deliver a sustainable NZ facility, there requires a holistic understanding on the performance of that asset and how this is measured and monitored. Prior to handback, the Authority should work with the Project Co to fully understand the systems, data streams and approach in how NZ performance is monitored within that asset.
This may include, but not be limited to, at handback the Project Co setting out the insight provided and capability of any existing BMS systems, a clear schedule of existing assets and sufficient detail specifically for high energy consuming assets, details on supplementary technologies that will support performance (e.g. sensors, data feeds) and a summary of historic trends and insight that will create the conditions for successful ongoing maintenance of the asset by the Authority. This information can be developed prior to handback and incorporated within the handover information (refer to section 2.3.7).
Prior to handback, consideration should be given to enhance the performance monitoring and data insights within the asset through the installation of digital twin technologies (IoT sensors) to capture enhanced insight into the performance, utilisation and behaviours of occupants of the assets to further inform management regimes and support the delivery of NZ assets.
