Developing Efficient Operational Concepts for Sustainable Success

Why Operating concepts?

More comfort, safety and sustainability

The creation of operational concepts in the design and construction phase sets the course for the successful operation of buildings:

  • Efficient use: A well-designed operational concept takes into account the needs and requirements of users and ensures that the various spaces and systems are used to their full potential.
  • Cost optimisation: Considering energy efficient technologies, maintenance schedules and other operational aspects can save costs in the long run.</li
  • Sustainability: The operational concept also includes the use of renewable energy, the reduction of resource consumption and the implementation of recycling and waste management plans.
  • Comfort and user satisfaction: Aspects such as a comfortable room temperature, adequate ventilation and a harmonious lighting concept promote the productivity and well-being of the building’s users.
  • Safety: Our operational concepts ensure that all relevant regulations are met and that fire protection, evacuation and building security measures are in place.
  • Long-term planning: Specifications for maintenance and upkeep, as well as consideration of future extensions or adaptations to the building, are also included in the concept.

You benefit from an operational concept in many ways and can rely on AIS’s expertise when it comes to efficiency, sustainability and operational safety.

Why choose AIS?

Customised operating concepts

AIS has many years of experience and extensive expertise in planning and construction consultancy. Our team of experts has expertise in a wide range of areas, including energy efficiency, sustainability, building technology and operational management. We take a holistic approach to the creation of operating concepts, ensuring that all important aspects are covered. Together with you, we focus on the concepts that are most suitable for your property.

We pay attention to every detail, right down to waste management and the use of sustainable, cost-saving materials. The needs of the building users are of great importance to us. Factors such as indoor climate, lighting and workplace quality are incorporated into the design, because every building is also a living space.

Our services in the area of operating concepts

Every square metre counts for you: Space concepts play a decisive role in facility management. It is important to precisely assess the requirements of the business and examine the areas relevant to operations in detail. This includes, for example, caretaker offices, rubbish rooms, delivery zones, material storage and cleaning rooms. Factors such as size, accessibility and layout as well as other requirements (e.g. floor coverings) are described in detail in the space concept.

The material concept defines the materials for the construction and operation of the building. Aspects such as sustainability, durability and ease of cleaning and maintenance are also taken into account. When selecting materials, we work closely with architects and building owners to promote the use of environmentally friendly materials and optimise the life cycle costs of the building.

Measuring and metering concepts are used to record and monitor consumption data such as energy, water and other resources. AIS develops the concept for installing measuring devices and meters, but also identifies potential for saving resources. This data forms the basis for an effective energy and resource management strategy.

The cleaning and height access concept includes the planning and organisation of cleaning work as well as safe access to all areas of the building. AIS develops concepts in which cleaning intervals, methods and standards are defined in detail. Access to areas that are difficult to reach, such as façades or roofs, is also regulated so that maintenance work can be carried out safely.

Security and access concepts ensure the protection of people and property in buildings. Based on many years of experience, AIS develops reliable concepts for securing buildings – including access control systems, alarm systems and video surveillance.

Disposal concepts cover a wide range of aspects: structural, technical and operational requirements as well as external logistics and the selection of disposal companies. Naturally, we also take into account environmental aspects such as the implementation of recycling and waste separation systems and compliance with all relevant environmental protection regulations.

The mail and goods delivery concept deals with the organisation of mail and delivery traffic in the building. The most important objective is to avoid possible disruptions to the operational process when distributing mail and delivering goods. Naturally, aspects such as security and access restrictions are also taken into account.

We check for you whether the orientation and information systems provided in the building are sufficient. Are they clearly understandable? Is the signage standardised? Are digital guidance systems perhaps more suitable? The aim is to provide visitors and users of the building with the best possible orientation.

Car park management concepts serve the efficient utilisation and management of parking spaces. We develop concepts for the allocation of parking spaces as well as for the installation of monitoring systems. Wherever possible, sustainable mobility concepts are supported, for example with bicycle parking spaces or e-charging car parks.
