GreenWizard Launches Cloud-Based “LEED® Credit Assessment” Workflow Solution

September 22, 2010

The Latest in a Series of Innovative Workflow Solutions, LEED® Credit Assessment Eases the Path to Maximizing LEED® Credits CHARLESTON, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--GreenWizard, Inc., the largest collection of green building product data for intelligent material selection, today announced that it has launched yet another innovative workflow solution, LEED® Credit Assessment, to work in tandem with its WORKflow Pro and MARKET Pro tools, and GreenWizard’s expansive green-product database. LEED Credit Assessment is designed for use throughout the life cycle of LEED projects to tally LEED credits, while identifying information required for documenting products for LEED credit eligibility. For example, in the MRc5 Regional Materials credit category, the LEED Credit Assessment tool calculates the percentage of construction materials that were extracted, harvested, recovered, and manufactured within 500 miles of the project. The tool then instantly tells the user whether his product selections qualify for no points, 1 point, 2 points, or even an Innovation in Design credit. By changing the parameters in the LEED Credit Assessment tool, and using what-if scenarios, GreenWizard users can “tune” their projects to optimize LEED credits. LEED Credit Assessment works similarly in other LEED® credit categories, such as MRc4, MRc6, and MRc7. As GreenWizard users make buying decisions throughout any LEED project, the LEED Credit Assessment provides advantages at every stage, from design through final construction.
