SITUATION & CHALLENGE
A Swiss real estate company faced several far-reaching decisions – from the choice of site to the treatment of the existing buildings in a development project. Each question came with several options and with conflicting criteria drawn from economics, sustainability, operations and location. What was needed was a method that makes those options objectively and transparently comparable.
APPROACH
For each decision we set up a utility value analysis: relevant criteria defined, grouped into qualitative and quantitative blocks, and weighted through direct pairwise comparison. We scored the options against measurable values and defined scales, then condensed the qualitative and quantitative assessments into an overall rating. The data came from test planning, expert analyses and our own surveys. For each decision we summarised the outcome into a basis fit for the committees.
OUTCOME & CLIENT VALUE
For every decision there was a transparent, traceably weighted ranking of the options – from the question of site through to the treatment of the existing buildings. The committees could base their decisions on an objective, documented foundation and derive the next steps from it. The structure and the foundations came from Desigon, the decisions stayed with the responsible committees.
