Different actors of building sector have developed various methods that assess the quality of its buildings in response to environmental issues. The methods developed in a specific context, have achieved a great popularity in recent years, but also an ambiguity in its measurement, a confusion in the objective pursued, forgetting the context in which they are intended. This paper develops a methodology of decision support, which evaluates the performance of existing buildings from the point of view of energy and user satisfaction, to decide between rehabilitation or demolition. The case of study is an university campus, which brings together different uses and users, and therefore different quality and comfort requirements. The indicators in the methodology consider this complexity, delivering its results in a single evaluation profile and allowing to be applied in different contexts.
