Abstract

This paper presents a custom decision-support information system designed to analyze and manage healthcare buildings, estate and assets in relation to the activity area of each room. The software drives its own SVG plans to retrieve structural information with a room-scale definition, built by DXF files inputted to the system itself. Each room is grouped in homogeneous areas according to the hospital’s inner organization (Departments and Operative Units) with their own assets, technologies and environmental comforts, giving quantitative and qualitative results. The system output can be used by the top-management to assess parameters and improve the structure and organization.
