Better Decisions
Our data-driven insights offer strategic advantages via new perspectives on resource use and carbon emissions throughout the whole life cycle of buildings and across global supply-chains.
Better Materials
We facilitate appropriate product specifications for better buildings and help scale implementation of improved conventional materials as well as the shift to low carbon material alternatives.
Better Design
Our data and tools help optimize your building design, layout and structure to enhance material efficiency for optimal use of resources within tight financial and environmental budgets.
A platform built for climate action
The Open Building Data Platform uses a coordinated, open and scalable data model to enhance exchange and comparability of life cycle data. Leverage our open tools to go from building data to actionable insights that improve your building and policy design.
