NDY has the experience and accreditation needed to provide a full-service with respect to building rating schemes. These schemes provide independent benchmarks against which the environmental impact of buildings can be judged. They are an important way to ensure best-practice standards are integrated into the design and operation of buildings.
Our experts in Australia have extensive experience with the national Australian Building Environmental Rating Scheme (NABERS, formerly the Australian Building Greenhouse Rating, is an environmental rating for existing office buildings and homes). This is also the case for the Green Building Council of Australia’s Green Star ratings, which are used to assess the environmental impact of office buildings. We are also experienced with the requirements and recommendations of the UK Green Building Council and New Zealand Green Building Council.
As buildings ratings schemes globally continue to develop, NDY will work with our clients to inform them of the opportunities and requirements. These detailed schemes require specialist expertise. NDY are at the forefront of rating tool development and are well-placed to provide expert advice when required.
