The Spaak project is a very large and complex one, with over 8.000 requirements. The Etterbeek project is interesting because it contains several programs in one: a polyclinic, social housing, affordable housing and public spaces.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, I am currently also using BriefBuilder for a new police station and for a new lab facility that will be developed through a Design &amp; Build contract.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2>How did you come to use BriefBuilder?<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p>\nI first heard about BriefBuilder around 2,5 years ago. I requested a trial version and played around with it for about two hours\u2014I am deliberately using the term playing because it felt a bit like a game. After that, I was convinced of the application\u2019s benefits. Without any further testing, we used it on a real-life project, which was a success.<\/p>\n<p>One of the main reasons why we are using BriefBuilder is that it becomes easier to maintain consistency in requirements. Earlier, requirements were spread over many different documents and applications: Word for the texts, Excel for the square meters, and Powerpoint for the diagrams. It is not like we couldn\u2019t develop a good programme of requirements in this way, but it was a lot of effort to keep information consitent and up to date.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"highlighted\">One of the main reasons why we are using BriefBuilder is that it becomes easier to maintain consistency in requirements<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Let me give you a simple example: if a client decided halfway through that the \u2018seminar room\u2019 should be renamed to \u2018conference room\u2019, you had to change this in all your documents. In BriefBuilder, you only have to change this in one place. Subsequently, all the related diagrams, overviews, and reports are automatically updated. This is practical and important because you don\u2019t want your requirements to be a mess, right?\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2>Was it difficult to implement BriefBuilder in your firm?<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p>\nWell, some of my colleagues were a bit hesitant in the beginning, and a few still are. The thing is that BriefBuilder requires a different mindset and a different approach to how you formulate requirements. If you are fond of writing reports, and have done so for your entire career, the idea of creating a \u2018model\u2019 can be quite challenging.<\/p>\n<p>Personally, however, I am very much in favour of a model-based approach. BriefBuilder helps me to create leaner briefs: briefs that contain factual requirements rather than loads of text. Let me again give you an example: when defining acoustic requirements, I prefer to a create a room property that stipulates \u201cSound level &lt; 40 dBA\u201d instead over writing a long sentence this \u201cThis room should have good acoustics, etc etc&#8221;. In itself there is nothing wrong with such a sentence, but when you have a lot of text, ambiguities and inconsistencies will creep in. Moreover, looking forward, it can be argued that texts are pretty useless when you want to link requirements to a BIM model.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"highlighted\">BriefBuilder helps me to create leaner briefs <span class=\"TextRun SCXW225596719 BCX0\" lang=\"EN-GB\" xml:lang=\"EN-GB\" data-contrast=\"auto\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW225596719 BCX0\">\u2014 briefs <\/span><\/span>that contain factual requirements rather than loads of text<\/span><\/p>\n<p>However, I have to take into consideration that some stakeholders, e.g. clients or architects, still prefer the narrative approach of traditional reports. So, let me say, it is a process \u2026\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2>What\u2019s your favourite BriefBuilder feature?<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p>\nI am very fond of the commenting feature. When working on a programme of requirements, there are usually one or more review rounds in which the involved stakeholders are asked for feedback. Before we used BriefBuilder, we did this by tracking changes and comments in shared Word and Excel files. But in big projects, with many reviewers, this easily becomes a mess. Now, with BriefBuilder, we have all comments in one place, directly linked to the requirements. This makes review processes much easier to manage.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"highlighted\">With BriefBuilder, we have all comments in one place.

You can easily fill BriefBuilder with all sorts of information, but the central question is what information is truly relevant to the project. What information do the architect and engineers need to be able to do their job? Don\u2019t put in things they already know.
