• Sommario/riassunto: This book provides engineers and students with a general framework focusing on the processes of designing new engineering products. The procedures covered by the framework lead the reader to the best trade-offs to ensure maximum satisfaction of the customer's needs, meeting the lowest cost expectations, ensuring the lowest environmental impact and maximising profits and best positioning in the marketplace. Chapters discuss the engineering tools that are compatible with these goals and sustainable activity.The design process is defined in terms of operators acting over the infor

• Sommario/riassunto: Die Arbeit beschreibt die Abhängigkeiten zwischen den Prozessen des Facility Management (FM) und den Primärprozessen im Krankenhaus in einem ganzheitlichen Modell. Die Kenntnis über die Leistungszusammenhänge der beiden Ebenen bildet die Grundlage für eine verursachergerechte Verrechnung der FM Kosten im Krankenhaus am Beispiel der Funktionsstelle OP-Bereich. Dabei schafft Transparenz die Basis für eine strategische Ressourcen- und Infrastrukturplanung.
