BriefBuilder

BriefBuilder

BriefBuilder is an online tool for requirements management in construction projects. It is a powerful and easy-to-use instrument that helps you to define, develop, communicate and test project requirements in a highly systematic way.

You can use BriefBuilder throughout your project. In the early stages, it helps you to formulate clear project objectives, which can then be translated into more detailed and operational building requirements (e.g. concerning indoor climate, fitting, fixtures and equipment). In addition, BriefBuilder gives you the possibility to define requirements concerning the facility management services such as maintenance, cleaning and catering.

All information is captured in one and the same semantic database which is accessible to all relevant parties. Everybody works with the same up-to-date information. Changes, remarks and questions can easily be tracked and traced.

The main benefit of BriefBuilder is that can create a brief that is complete, consistent and clear. The captured requirements can be used for design management, procurement and quality control. Thereby, BriefBuilder significantly reduces the risks of quality problems and budget overruns, in particular in large scale and complex projects.

If you use BriefBuilder in multiple projects you will have the additional benefit of creating standard templates and requirements libraries, which help you to standardize across projects and speed up the briefing process.
