We have wide-ranging engineering, design, and construction administration services, including:
Sustainability Workshops/Charrettes
We facilitate workshops and charrettes that bring together project teams to embed sustainability into every facet of building design and construction, optimizing each team member’s approach to green practices.
Project Management
We provide top-tier project management services designed to keep your project on track, within budget, and aligned with your environmental and sustainability goals, no matter the project scale or type.
Building Physics
Whether your project is a new construction, existing, or retrofitted building, we can analyze your project’s energy performance, daylight exposure, and occupant comfort to ensure reduced carbon emissions and optimized operational and thermal performance.
Net-Zero Design Services
Our team can turn project limitations into opportunities with innovative net-zero and net-positive strategies for energy, water, waste, and carbon. Tailor-made for interiors, buildings, or neighborhoods, we help you meet and exceed your environmental objectives.
Water Budget Calculations
Understanding indoor and outdoor water use is crucial for achieving water efficiency and conservation targets, including net-zero goals. We use advanced tools to help you analyze and set precise water usage objectives.
ASHRAE Energy and HVAC Design Calculations
We conduct energy and HVAC design calculations based on ASHRAE standards and deliver actionable reports that outline strategic recommendations, potential energy and cost savings, implementation and operating costs, payback periods, enhanced asset value, and return on investment.
Whole Building Life-Cycle Assessment
From design and construction, through operations and maintenance, and end-of-life – we assess your building’s environmental impacts over a its lifetime. The LCA identifies high-impact areas to improve sustainability, guiding material and design choices to reduce energy use, emissions, and resource consumption.
Design Document Review
To ensure the quality of your project’s design standards throughout the course of the project design phase, we provide a comprehensive review of feasibility reports, design documentation, green building certification considerations, and financial and time budget issues.
Construction Document Review & On-Site Assessment
We help smooth the process of your project’s construction by providing assistance with pre-construction meetings, review and approval of manufacturer data, material documentation management, contractor trainings, and mid-project audits.
Post-Occupancy Audits, Surveys, Training, and Policy Drafting
Beyond construction, we offer comprehensive post-occupancy services, on-site energy & waste audits, indoor environmental quality testing occupant surveys, and drafting policy documents like green purchasing and cleaning policies. We also assist in training and protocol development for facility management teams.
Operational Performance Optimization with BEE Sense
BEE Sense is our cloud-based, real-time, integrated building management platform that collects, organizes, and analyzes a building’s indoor environmental quality (IEQ), energy, and water consumption data. This innovative platform ensures that your buildings perform at their best, promoting environmental sustainability and operational efficiency.
Tailored Sustainability Framework Creation & Audit
We lead our clients in developing their own sustainable building design, construction, and operations frameworks & standards that are unique to their needs and project typologies.
Our scope of service includes:
- Create holistic sustainability standards
- Identify key sustainability goals, targets, and indicators
- Assess performance criteria to be measured
- Design a standardized framework of best practices
- Establish a system for quality control and assurance
