The specification focuses on four key aspects of performance monitoring:  performance metrics  measurement system requirements  data acquisition and archiving  data visualization and reporting   The aim is to assist building owners in specifying the extensions to their control systems that are required to provide building operators with the information needed to operate their buildings more efficiently and to provide automated diagnostic tools with the information required to detect and diagnose faults and problems that degrade energy performance.  The paper reviews the potential benefits of performance monitoring, describes the specification guide and discusses briefly the ways in which it could be implemented. A prototype advanced visualization tool is also described, along with its application to performance monitoring. The paper concludes with a description of the ways in which the specification and the visualization tool are being disseminated and deployed.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kenneth L.

The project&#039;s goal was to facilitate the delivery of specific performance related information to the benefit of both commissioning providers and building operators. A number of large-building owners were engaged in order to help create &#039;market pull&#039; for performance monitoring while producing a specification that met their needs. The specification guide and example specification language addresses four key aspects of performance monitoring:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;performance metrics&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;measurement system requirements&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;data acquisition and archiving&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;data visualization and reporting&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;The paper describes key aspects of the guide including how measurement accuracy requirements relate to the performance metrics that are used in both troubleshooting and routine reporting. Guide development activities and related tech-transfer efforts are also presented.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
