| description | In the context of the European Union's push for a sustainable and digitally integrated construction sector, this research explores the relationship between Digital Building Permits (DBP) and Digital Building Logbooks (DBL). The study aims to diagnose and identify the synergies and challenges in aligning these data-driven concepts throughout the building life-cycle. Using a focus group methodology, the research gathered qualitative data on the perceptions of DBP and DBL among professionals with diverse backgrounds. The findings reveal significant overlaps and potential for integrated data management, enhancing regulatory compliance, efficiency, and sustainability. While DBP and DBL can function independently, their full potential is realised through a cohesive framework that supports continuous data updates and stakeholder collaboration, facilitating the “golden thread” of information essential for effective digital twin applications. Future research should further explore the detailed processes and data exchanges necessary to implement this framework successfully. |
