BREEAM Assessors

In response to on-going demand for a “Fully Managed BREEAM Service” TWC Consulting are now offering a gold standard, which GUARANTEES the targeted rating for a development is achieved, whilst still focusing on minimum costs and value. To date this has included buildings with “Good, “Very Good” and “Excellent” ratings.

The TWC Consulting Fully Managed service identifies the risks associated with a BREEAM Assessment, and thereafter takes the appropriate steps to mitigate them. This involves close analysis of the development’s strategy, the building’s energy systems, site drainage plans, SBEM targets, pollution measures, site ecology, thermal zoning requirements and daylight calculations.

In most cases the greatest risk to a BREEAM Assessment is a lack of communication between the project team and the appointed BREEAM Assessor.

BREEAM Assessments

This risk is further exacerbated in circumstances where the BREEAM Assessor is appointed on an ‘Assess & Validate [Only] Basis’. Many examples exist where confusion and frustration mount as time barred credits are lost, and the evidence requirements needed to sign off targeted credits become disconnected.

With experienced BREEAM Assessors TWC Consulting is able to communicate and assist Clients with the many difficulties associated with targeted credits. The Consultancy becomes an active member of the project team and adopts a proactive approach rather than a reactive one. The appointed BREEAM Accredited Professional attends key progress meetings to ensure all credits are managed and the flow of information is maintained.
