BuildingWise firmly believes in sustainability and the value of LEED® (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). Though developed by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) in 2000, BuildingWise founder and staff have played an integral part in developing LEED curriculum and guidelines.

The LEED program provides the opportunity and structure to effectively analyze, measure and communicate construction and operational sustainability practices in institutional and corporate facilities. The prestigious LEED certification can create a tremendous amount of marketability and good public relations, while offering notable cost savings and positive ROI.

LEED is flexible enough to be applied to all building types, of any size – from commercial to residential. The program was designed to improve performance, across the board, in what matters most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources, and sensitivity to their impacts.

BuildingWise is continually developing new ways to use the LEED program and is rewriting the rules with the USGBC to bring certification to challenging buildings by delivering the smartest LEED solutions.
