Feasibility and scorecard
Which level is realistic, which credits it takes and what each one costs. A scorecard the owner can sign off before design moves on.
LEED consultancy, with WELL, EDGE and Fitwel
From the first scorecard to the certificate.
We run LEED certification for owners, architects and contractors: credit strategy, design reviews, construction tracking and the LEED Online submission. Twenty of the projects we have worked on are LEED Platinum.
What we do on a LEED project
One consultant from feasibility to the certificate, with the energy and daylight work done in house.
Credit strategy in design
We review drawings and specifications credit by credit and tell the design team what to change while change is still cheap.
Energy and daylight credits
Our own energy models and daylight simulations, so the largest credits do not wait on another consultant.
Energy modelingConstruction tracking
Materials, indoor air quality management and waste records collected from the contractor as the work happens, not at the end.
LEED Online and review
We prepare the submission, answer the reviewer's comments and see the project through to the certificate.
Operating buildings, LEED O+M
Performance data, policies and recertification for buildings in use. Soho House Istanbul is LEED O+M Platinum.
WELL, EDGE, Fitwel and ENERGY STAR
The same team delivers WELL, Fitwel and ENERGY STAR, and EDGE as EDGE Expert and EDGE Auditor.

LEED consulting and energy modeling
One team, fewer hand-offs
LEED, energy and commissioning from the same engineers
Fundamental Commissioning is a LEED prerequisite and energy is the largest block of points. We deliver both, so credits, model and commissioning plan stay in step. If we also model or consult on a project where we are the CxA, we agree the arrangement with the owner at the start, so the commissioning stays independent of the design work.
LEED consulting questions
Which rating systems do you work with?
LEED BD+C, including New Construction, Core and Shell, Retail and Schools, LEED ID+C and LEED O+M, under v4, v4.1 and v5. We also deliver WELL, EDGE, Fitwel and ENERGY STAR.
When should we bring in a LEED consultant?
Before schematic design ends, if you can. Site, energy and water credits are cheapest to win early. We also join projects already in design or construction and tell you honestly which credits are still reachable.
Can you guarantee a certification level?
No one can promise the review decision. What we do is target a level with a margin of extra points, track every credit to closure and answer reviewer comments until the project is certified.
Can you also be our CxA?
Yes. Fundamental Commissioning is a LEED prerequisite and we are commissioning authorities. If we also model or consult on a project where we are the CxA, we agree the arrangement with the owner at the start, so the commissioning stays independent of the design work.
Do you work outside New York?
Yes, anywhere in the US. LEED work is mostly design reviews and documentation, and we come to site when the project needs it.
