Abstract

The location evaluation of purpose-built office (PBO) has increase in complexity with the addition of sustainability dimension in the evaluation. There are many elements that need to be considered in the complex sustainability concept of PBO in terms of location. This paper aims to investigate stakeholders’ perceptions towards PBO in the context of sustainable business location in the Golden Triangle of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Data was obtained through questionnaire survey utilising pairwise comparison technique. Analytic Network Process (ANP) analysis was then employed. The findings demonstrated the dependence of each sustainable business location characteristic of PBO based on the perceptions of selected stakeholders.
