Green Building Operations and Management

New buildings that are designed for easy operations and management (O&M) can realize cost savings of up to 10% compared to conventional properties. Effective O&M techniques, coupled with non-toxic cleaning methods are healthier both for the building occupants, as well as the maintenance workers themselves.

Green O&M is as much about empowering building staff to participate in the operation of the building and giving them a stake in good performance. As has been demonstrated in LEED EB (Existing Building) certified projects such as the National Geographic Headquarters in Washington, DC, the results are astounding and the positive impact on the workers quite moving. Indeed, almost half of the potential performance improvement of an existing building can come from proper management of the facility, without having to spend a penny on new equipment.
