LEED is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics that matter most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality, and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to the
ir impacts. Green Building Council (USGBC), LEED provides building owners and operators a concise framework for identifying and implementing practical and measurable green building design, construction, operations and maintenance solutions. Laying the groundwork for a LEED project can be a daunting task. The responsibilities of many credits overlap between disciplines, while defining which credits to pursue is not a transparent procedure. For these reasons choosing an experienced facilitator to conduct your LEED Charrette in a neutral, but authoritative method is paramount to the success of any project.
