The CABA Building Intelligence Quotient programme
The article describes the web-based Building Intelligence Quotient (BiQ) programme, developed for the Continental Automated Buildings Association (CABA). The initial BiQ beta testing and the BiQ corporate portfolio analysis are reported. The BiQ rates building automation systems in existing large office buildings and supports the integrated design and life-cycle costing processes. It contributes to the increasing convergence of green and intelligent building programmes. Using the BiQ for rating the intelligence of building automation contributes to the knowledge of building performance and enhances intelligence within the building industry. The BiQ reflects the convergence of information technology to all building and business enterprise systems contributing to the acquisition of knowledge that can positively guide future decision making and action. Using the BiQ and comparing the BiQs across corporate portfolios provides new ways that various stakeholders can learn from actual building performance and improve decision making for the automation systems of future buildings. The BiQ can be a key part of developing individual and collective intelligence in relation to building design and operation. The BiQ report is a feedback mechanism that shows what is working and what is not. The BiQ and other CABA programmes contribute to the notion of feedback and intelligence.
