Where can we support your project team?
We consider design decisions alongside building performance and certification requirements. We define the scope of collaboration with architecture and engineering practices, project managers and specialist consultants for each project.
Certification consultancy
Connect LEED, WELL, EDGE and YeS-Int (YeS-TR) objectives to the project programme, with clear credit requirements and team responsibilities.
Analysis support
Define the design questions that energy modelling, daylight and building physics analyses need to answer, together with the required inputs and reporting scope.
A defined subconsultancy scope
Agree a work package suited to your contract and project organisation. Record communication, coordination and delivery responsibilities at the outset.
Deliverables to agree at the outset
- Scope of work, target certification system and applicable version.
- Required project inputs, responsible parties and missing information.
- Analysis assumptions, assessment criteria and reporting format.
- Coordination meetings, delivery schedule and revision limits.
Methods and information exchange
The energy modelling method depends on the target certification system and project scope. Where a method such as ASHRAE 90.1 Appendix G is required, the relevant standard edition, model boundaries and assumptions are recorded in the scope.
We agree software, file formats and model delivery requirements during the technical discussion. The proposal defines the tools to be used and whether model files are included in the deliverables.
What to share for an initial discussion
Share the location, building type and approximate floor area, project stage, target certification system and analyses you need. Plans and a project programme, if available, help us assess the scope.
