Dear Architect, Contractor, Owner or Project Manager hoping for an easier way to deal with LEED compliance,

For most professionals in the construction industry, LEED certification can become a real headache. You are probably spending hours wrestling with confusing materials specs, resolving miscommunications and wasting money on change orders.
You probably wish there was an easier way to deliver sustainable solutions without the stress.
There is.
We built Green Canary to simplify the LEED credit tracking process,
Green Canary is a one of a kind sustainable materials management software designed specifically to help you track LEED credits and healthy materials with the click of a button, saving your team time and money by avoiding RFPs, change orders and miscommunication.
Our cloud based software provides:
Real time reporting: See exactly where your project stands with one-click LEED reports
Trusted Materials Data: Skip the research and cut through the greenwashing, use pre verified specifications and manufacturer documentation
Team Collaboration: put all your data into one cloud based platform to get owners, architects, GCs and subs all working together. No more “I didn’t know” conversations.
Credit and Compliance Tracking: hit your sustainability targets without the guesswork

"Williams and Dame development estimated over $100,000 savings from using Green Canary on their hotel project from eliminating LEED change orders and reduced documentation time."

At ecoREAL Solutions, our mission has always been that "everyone deserves a healthy building."

One of our proudest moments was hearing from a student at Reynolds High School, who shared that the healthy attributes of their remodeled lower-income school made him feel "valued as a person." We are also proud to have achieved net zero through passive methods without any additional costs.

It shouldn’t just be our high end clients, like the Ritz Carlton, and Walmart HQ.
It’s a human right. We will continue to fight for equity in the built environment and healthy schools and workplaces for everyone.

High Performance Design: Minimizing energy consumption from heating and cooling

In most commercial buildings, the HVAC system consumes 35-70% of the building's energy depending on the type of building, use and location. No matter which end of that number your facility falls closer to, that is a lot of energy and money spent on heating, cooling and moving air and that can translate to some high bills, especially with heat waves becoming more common as the planet warms.

That is why high performance designs are so important.

There are several strategies to passively heat and cool a building without turning up the HVAC system.

In the initial stages of design planning, elongating a building along the east-west axis to maximize sun exposure and calculating overhangs to allow lower winter sunlight to enter windows while blocking summer sun exposure can help to use natural sunlight effectively to aid in heating and cooling.

Proper insulation and window placement can also help to reduce the burden placed on the HVAC system to heat and cool the building. While large windows might look nice, they are far from efficient from an HVAC perspective. Instead, using heavy materials like stonework or concrete and efficient ventilation systems to allow cool air in at night and shut warm air out during the day can help passively cool a building on hot summer days.
During the winter, a well insulated building is an efficient one, continuous insulation, avoiding drafty gaps, can help waste in the heating system.

The inspiration for many of the concepts and values of ecoREAL Solutions started with the June Key Delta House in Northeast Portland.
Constructed in 2007 on the site of what was once a dilapidated Arco gas station, the June Key Delta House community center was one of the first Living Buildings in the city of Portland.
The members of the Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Alumnae Chapter, a professional organization of Black women, wanted their new community center to be beneficial to both the community and the planet.
The building was constructed using steel from decommissioned shipping containers to reduce the environmental impact of the raw materials and is designed to harvest all of its water and energy on site.
Along with its visible solar array, the June Key Delta House features a community garden and provides after school tutoring to local kids.

The sustainability and equity goals embodied in this project inspired our founder, Summer Fowler's goals for ecoREAL Solutions.

ecoREAL Solutions served as the LEED Project Administrator in collaboration with architects from ZGF Architects and JE Dunn Construction guiding the project to LEED Gold certification through an integrative process involving contractors, design teams and county officials. The 158,000 square foot, 38.5 million dollar project also pursued Path to Net Zero with Energy Trust of Oregon incentives.

The Gladys McCoy Building, located in Portland's historic Old Town neighborhood, houses state of the art laboratories, an on site pharmacy and both clinical and administrative space for 500 health care professionals.

Completed in 2019, the new health department facility was designed and built to satisfy Multnomah County's requirement for public projects to be LEED Gold certified.

Global temperatures have risen about 1.3 degrees since pre-industrial times, which means that even if we were to globally cut greenhouse gas emissions to zero tomorrow, some amount of global climate destabilization would still occur.

LEED v5 takes these stressors on our infrastructure and built environment into account with the new framework requiring climate resilience.

Depending on what part of the world your project is in, climate impacts will vary.

Some regions are likely to experience flooding or storms, so strategies such as bioswales, raised first floors and drainage systems will be more important while in fire prone areas, buildings might require fireproof materials, fire breaks and additional emergency management planning.

Strategies to manage heat and conserve energy will be important for resiliency in most of the world.
This means that on site renewables, green roofs and high albedo building materials will continue to play a part in a resilient building future.

Whatever your views may be as to any military activity the US undertakes, the human cost is undeniable.

ecoREAL Solutions and our Green Canary Software are built on bridging the gap between architects and contractors, working sustainability into every decision.
We believe a building is a whole, integrated system, not a set individual component parts.

LEED v5 significantly changes the priorities, viewing buildings as a holistic, interconnected system as opposed to a series of discrete decisions. Instead of focusing predominantly on operational efficiency, the new set of LEED v5 standard will focus on decarbonization, requiring tracking of both embodied and operational carbon. Within the framework, there is a heavy push toward all electric designs and a mandate for carbon monitoring and 25 year carbon projections.

Prior any tallying of points for credits, mandatory carbon, climate resilience and human impact assessments will need to be completed.

The entire lifecycle of the building will now be considered. Moving away from a one and done certification approach, LEED v5 will require that design metrics actually align with the operational reality over time.

Are you ready? Or just confused?

Either way, at ecoREAL Solutions & Green Canary Software, we are here to help simplify the process.
