Abstract
The philosophy of sustainable development is now part of every area of human life, including construction industry. The current priorities, which can be affected during the period of design, were mainly: energy consumption of the building's operation, characteristics of used building materials and the development of certification systems. Today, scientists are looking for new solutions for the application of sustainable development already in the operation period of buildings. The maintenance process is one of them. Use of advanced information technologies in cooperation with the Maintenance Manual of Buildings is one of the possible ways.
