Through plans, goal setting, analysis, and design, we use our skills to deliver measurable performance data that can be put into action: - Energy and Carbon Action Plans - Energy, Water and Waste Goalsetting - Higher-Performance Building Analysis/Design - Daylighting and Glare Analysis/Design - Renewable Energy and NetZero Analysis/Design - CFD Airflow Modeling and Ventilation Analysis
We put the utmost importance on the well-being of people and the planet — and we offer solutions that benefit both: - Sustainability Master Planning - Performance/Tenant Standards Development - Integrative Design Workshops - Third-party Certification Management - Post-occupancy Evaluation and Analysis
Our world’s climate is rapidly changing. We can help you prepare for the reality we face today and also what may lie ahead: - Hazard Assessment and Resiliency Planning - Passive Thermal Sustainability Analysis - Existing Building Resiliency Assessment - Power Blackout Testing - Post-event Assessment and Recovery
Cost matters. Decisions cannot be made in a vacuum. They require information, data, projections, and estimates. Budgets are critical to the success of any project, and schools are particularly aligned with their budgets. That’s why all of the sustainability solutions we present to the client are also presented with the information they need to make an informed decision. We include a Lifecycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) to evaluate and compare various high-performance systems and strategies, including the HVAC and structural systems. This way you can make informed decisions around using these high-performance systems. LEED CONSULTING Our dedication to reducing operating costs through efficient design and conservation is evidenced by our LEED Platinum and Gold certified projects. As buildings become more sophisticated, the complexity can become daunting. However, the true goal of sustainability is to do more with less. Our team’s design capabilities enable us to provide comfort and efficiency using more passive systems, with expertise from consultants and cooperation at every stage to achieve integration that breeds efficiency, savings, comfort, and well-being.
