The Soft Landings Framework includes procedures and example checklists which act as signposts for design teams to help end-users get to grips with their often unfamiliar and complex buildings. It allows for a full programme of post-occupancy evaluation that the project team can use to improve a building's performance and make it sustainable over the long term. 

Soft Landings complements rather than duplicating existing procedures used by the construction industry. Specifically, it has been designed to be the underpinning chassis for environmental assessments like BREEAM and LEED, all forms of energy performance certification, post-occupancy evaluation (POE), building logbooks, green leases, and industry key performance indicators (KPIs). 

Soft Landings comes into its own, closing the loop between design, construction, operation, feedback and into design again. As the title suggests, the raison-d'etre of Soft Landings is to provide better buildings and a more effective service to the client.
