Excellent environmental credentials are vital when undertaking a sustainable design project, so think carefully about selecting the right contractor to assist you in this.
Consider the following questions:
1. Do they take an active approach to sustainability both internally and the services they offer?
2. Can they provide an environmental conscious design service and advice on sustainable materials?
3. Do they have Environmental Management System (EMS)?
4. Do they have in-house Environmental Management Team?
5. Are they officially ISO14001 certified?
6. Can they offer BREEAM or Ska fit-out / refurbishment assessments?
