ESG: Environmental (LEED is the E), Social (WELL is the S) & Governance.
LEED and WELL strategies can have a powerful impact on ESG real estate performance reporting.
Together they complement each other; LEED focuses on the environmental impact and performance of buildings while WELL focuses on social equity, occupant health and safe spaces.
The ZCS team can provide full-service LEED and WELL support from entitlement to project management throughout the certification process.
LEED provides investors with a robust and globally recognized green building framework to measure and manage their real estate performance. LEED-EBOM offers a proven yet flexible structure for managing properties to prioritize building efficiency, decrease operational costs, increase asset value and foster occupant productivity and wellbeing.
If full LEED certification is not your goal, we provide energy modelling, ZNE compliance, life-cycle analysis and CRREM reports, among other services, to benchmark building performance and analyze your exposure to the risk of stranded assets.
Similarly, if full WELL certification is beyond your current needs, the WELL Health-Safety Rating offers a low-barrier yet meaningful way to demonstrate real, measurable health and safety achievements for your community, and it can mark the beginning of your journey into a WELL v2 certification. You can continue your journey with WELL Portfolio which allows real estate owners and managers to benchmark, streamline and scale health and wellness initiatives across multiple locations and helps demonstrate your progress over time.
Below are 2 resources that we have found illuminating:
WELL ESG Reporting Strategies — 5 short pages that break down the process of WELL & WELL Health-Safety Rating in ESG.
ESG Reporting in the Construction Industry — 9 short pages that show you how companies like Green Badger understand the role that they play in ESG reporting and how they can help our clients receive the necessary documentation for ESG reporting. Most of all, it shows how important is is for us, ZCS, to work side by side with the contractors.
