Due to population growth and aged existing facilities, many Swedish municipalities need to make substantial investments in school facilities over the coming years. Previous research has established that integrating knowledge of both users and building operations and maintenance (O&M) into project planning may significantly reduce lifecycle costs and improve user functionality. This study investigates how and to what extent knowledge related to use and operation of a facility is transferred to and integrated in design phases of municipal school building processes. Interviews were performed with representatives for the client/user, O&M, construction project management and procurement in three Swedish municipalities. The study found a trend towards codification, but also that knowledge transfer and sharing between departments and project organizations was difficult. The ability to bring in user and O&M knowledge in a systematic way was influenced by meta-level governance capabilities in a municipality. Future research should address mechanisms for knowledge transfer on this meta-level.
