I am also subscribed to the Bldg-sim email list at <a href="http://onebuilding.org">onebuilding.org</a> and this survey seems worthwhile. If you have the time, complete this online survey regarding the use of building energy simulation during design, construction and operation. Read more about it and find the link to the online survey in the forwarded email below.<div>

<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">Dear colleagues,</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">You are invited to participate in an online survey on the use of
building energy simulation during design, construction and operation. A special
emphasis of the survey is to better understand who on the design team owns and
gets access to the energy model of a building, what role the model currently
plays during building design and construction, and how the use of the model
could be extended to the overall lifetime of a building.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size:10.0pt;color:black">The survey is being carried out by the Graduate School of Design
at Harvard University in collaboration with the Office for Sustainability. The
survey is funded through the Harvard Real Estate Academic Initiative. Our goal
is to develop recommendations of how owners of large real state should interact
with their building design teams to get maximum benefit from their building
performance analysis contracts. We hope that your input will help us to develop
recommendations that are acceptable, fair and profitable to all members of the
design team.<br>
