Green buildings (GBs) are gaining popularity the world over. This study investigates the criteria that determine the success of GB projects. This study employs the interpretive qualitative approach. Semistructured interviews (n = 40) across five countries were conducted with experts active in different roles in GBs. Overall, 17 success criteria and 39 subcriteria are identified. Some key success criteria are about meeting the needs of building occupants (n = 25), meeting project aspirations (n = 16), realizing sustainable building operations (n = 15), and achieving GB certifications (n = 14). The identified criteria are inquired to determine whether they are about doing the "right things," about doing "things right," or about generating value. The interrelationships among success criteria and the priorities placed on some success criteria in GB projects according to the respondents are also discussed. Theoretically, the inquiry of criteria adds depth to the understanding of building project success in general, and GB success in particular. Practically, the comprehensive list of success criteria can be used as a guide on GB projects for performance evaluation and for controlling project performance. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
