One of our focuses this year is to expand our BREEAM concierge service.
We act as the intermediary between the construction contractor and the BREEAM assessor, to ensure all documents are compliant before they are submitted. We make sure that the contractor’s team know what the next actions are for completion, with the objective of them meeting their BREEAM target with the best possible score.
We understand that with busy sites and teams, that certification obligations can be demanding of time and resource, so our approach aims to make the BREEAM process as simple as possible, and you have the peace of mind that experts have reviewed your documentation. We speak the assessor’s language, while understanding the site impacts and obligations on our client and the contractor!
Rachel Rowley, managing director at Encore Environment said: “We are currently providing a concierge service for a number of construction contractors. Their sites are thriving, and we have had very positive feedback. Early intervention in a project is key, so we can evaluate the scheme and its BRREAM rating,”
Encore Environment’s team has experience across all standards and ratings including residential, new construction, education, refurbishment and fit-out, offices and retail.
There is increased pressure on construction companies to focus on sustainability in the design, construction and use of buildings. As a result, many of England’s local authorities and large commercial and public sector organisations see BREEAM as an essential prerequisite in their procurement strategies.
Rachel continued: “Working with a BREEAM-compliant environmental consulting firm such as Encore Environment will reduce costs to deliver such projects. We take away the ‘noise’ generated by multi-team ventures so our clients can deliver what they’re best at – exemplar construction projects.”
