Original Abstract

Performance measurement of business processes is a necessary prerequisite for efficiency improvement. The increasing demand for enhanced environmental protection in construction is also reflected in recent performance measurement systems. This paper aims to review various systems used for performance measurement in construction contracts and to discuss current developments in this area. Findings show that the importance of environmental protection is growing as the sustainability approach is becoming more common. In the construction industry, green and sustainable criteria are becoming an integral part of responsible entities’ considerations and strategies for reducing energy consumption and handling construction materials responsibly (e.g., by means of recycling/re-use), considering the high material intensity of construction production.
