P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

• Performance-based Standards • Why the P100 went to Performance-

Based • How it works • What about Resilience? • What about Life-Cycle Performance?

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

What are Performance-based Standards? • Focus on desired outcome • Describe what you will achieve are, not how

you achieve it • Describe how to demonstrate the

achievement

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

Performance-basis in Context • Prescriptive standard

• Describes specifics of what to do • Observation focused verification

• Performance standard • Describes what to accomplish • Modeling-based verification

• Outcome standard • Describes measurable outcomes • Measurement focused verification

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

Why Performance-based Standards? • Focus on clear goals • Verify that goals are met • Clearer responsibilities of all parties • Recent successes of performance

standards

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

P100 Transformation Goals • Optimize performance

• Energy, Water, Waste, etc. • Health and Productivity • Space Efficiency and Flexibility • Life Cycle Cost and Environmental impact

effectiveness • Financial Performance • Resilience

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance P100 Transformation Deliverables 1. Performance Criteria 2. A Means to Verify Performance 3. A Means to hold parties Responsible for

Performance

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

P100 Transformation Deliverables 1. Performance Criteria • Minimum + Three HP Tiers per Criterion

A. Minimum Often Above Code B. Middle Tiers well above status quo C. Highest Tier a Stretch Goal

• Clearly focused on Desired Outcomes • Drill down to Guidance and References

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

What about Resilience? • Many definitions • A list rather than a single criterion • Closely related to our working definition

of “Sustainability”

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

Areas of P100 Resilience • Energy Performance

• Lower energy requirements to remain operational

• Less vulnerability to energy availability and cost threats

P100 Resilience and Life-Cycle Performance

What About Life-Cycle? • LCC is ubiquitous in our calcs and

requirements • Life cycle considerations, and lessons

learned, have always been a driving consideration in P100 • Above standard durabilities • Greatest adaptability for re-purposing
