GSA's PBS-P100, "Facilities Standards for the Public Buildings Service", has prescribed better-than-code buildings for decades. Recently, in response to the need to allow designers more flexibility to meet escalating goals, with robust means to verify the results, it was transformed into a performance-based standard. The new standard incorporates four performance tiers, from better-than-code to true high performance. A new process, incorporating a breadth of professionals in technical committees, keeps its development and revision continuous, with quarterly published updates. Issues encountered in the development of the standard, and its implementation in a large organization, will be covered.
