The WELL Building Standard is a science-based certification scheme that evaluates the impact of buildings' design, construction and operations on the health and well-being of occupants.
As a licensed WELL Accredited Professional (WELL AP), we are able to:
Support the design team to develop targets and strategies in line with the health and well-being aspirations of the project.
Perform the WELL assessor responsibilities of the project, including documentation review, performance verification and final report submission for certification.
BREEAM Advisory Professional
Focus ED is recognised as a BREEAM Advisory Professional (AP) by BRE Global. As a registered BREEAM AP, we have the relevant experience to guide the clients, design and construction teams across all BREEAM schemes as a sustainability advisor.
We facilitate project teams in scheduling activities, setting priorities, and negotiating the trade-offs required to achieve BREEAM targets and sustainability goals.
Including a registered BREEAM AP in the project will help award up to six BREEAM credits (dependent on the project scheme).
On-Site Sustainability Management for Environmental Certifications
We provide dedicated on-site sustainability support, acting as your Sustainability Champion (BREEAM AP, LEED and WELL support) throughout the construction phase. We help main contractors and clients plan, coordinate, and evidence all sustainability requirements, ensuring that project targets (BREEAM, LEED, WELL, and broader ESG goals) are achieved efficiently and with minimal disruption to site operations.
Working closely with the project team, we:
Translate BREEAM, LEED, WELL and client sustainability requirements into clear, practical site actions.
Review design and construction information to identify risks and opportunities for credits across all schemes.
Lead sustainability workshops, inductions and toolbox talks for site teams and subcontractors.
Monitor on-site performance (waste, energy, water, indoor environmental quality, responsible sourcing, biodiversity, health & wellbeing, social value, etc.).
Coordinate evidence collection and documentation required for BREEAM, LEED and WELL assessments.
Support compliance with environmental legislation, rating system criteria, best-practice standards and client policies.
The result is a construction site where sustainability, health and wellbeing are embedded in day-to-day decision-making, risks are reduced, evidence is robust, and targeted BREEAM, LEED and WELL ratings and sustainability objectives are realistically achievable.
