The Value Of a LEED Consultant
We are your advocate to protect you from a great deal
of contradicting information in the marketplace (we call
it greenwashing). Though even we can be fooled, there
are some obvious signs of misrepresentations that we
have learned to help protect you from spurious claims.
You will undoubtedly require the assistance of designers,
contractors, and subcontractors to complete or perform
some of the required work. Our familiarity with the
industry and the local market make us a valuable
resource in assisting you in the selection of competent
contractors. As your advocate we are also positioned to
help assure that they perform their tasks in accordance
with the intent of the requirements.
We combine the synergies of the different LEED® credits
rather than approach each as a separate entity.
Attempting the requirements of a single credit is complex
enough, but combining multiple credits offers
opportunities to minimize first cost and provides access to
multiple points. This is a juggling act for experienced
LEED® Accredited Professionals.
We have developed and tested LEED GB O+M plans
and policies to save you hundreds of development
hours. These plans and policies are the result of testing
best practices on multiple projects through the LEED
review system. We know they are successful strategies,
and they will save countless hours of research in
developing your own custom plans.
There are over one hundred best practices in GBOM.
We have been exposed to a broad range of problems
and solutions through a variety of projects and
associations. We help provide focus and direction with
the best practices for your operation to get to the intent
of LEED.
Most of your staff have other job responsibilities as their
primary focus. LEED is our primary focus. When your
production schedule heats up to the point that you
need to subcontract some of the project management,
we have the capacity to step in and perform that
function to keep the project on schedule. We prefer that
you take the primary initiative to ingrain GBOM in your
operations, but we are ready and able to supplement
your workforce as needed.
Our familiarity with the product and process will cut the
time to certify by at least half. The tools we have
developed and the experience we have to bear will
facilitate the process and make life easier for you. We
understand what it takes to drive a project to
completion, and have implemented project
management protocols to facilitate a productive
schedule.
You are expert in your field as we are in ours. The service
we provide is as technical and complex as what you
provide your clients. Competence in using GBOM
requires at least three years of immersion; mastery takes
at least five years. We know from experience that your
organization will be better served by having professional
assistance on this journey.
Eco Metrics has a diverse talent pool of associates from
around the nation that have contributed to the tools we
have developed. Our associates have years of design,
construction, facility management experience, and
knowledge of LEED. We constantly challenge the people
around us to be better than the status quo.
