What is Building Performance Consultancy?
Building Performance Consultancy consists of evaluating a building and making recommendations to improve its overall efficiency, functionality and sustainability.
Consultants run various assessments to determine performance, such as energy audits, thermal imaging and air quality monitoring to ensure that the building operates efficiently. From here, consultants will identify the right solutions for your project and make recommendations. This may include, MEP, SuDS, PassivHaus or Low and zero carbon (LZC) building design.
The result is a building that delivers measurable sustainable performance, minimising operational costs, reducing energy waste, managing caron emissions, increased workplace productivity and more.
Building performance consultancy assessments
We offer two types of performance assessments to effectively evaluate your building.
Energy Audits are the vital first step in any organisation’s journey towards energy efficiency and net zero. Our tailored audits uncover opportunities to cut energy costs, reduce carbon emissions and improve energy efficiency and overall performance.
Once we have assessed your energy consumption patterns, we will highlight key areas of improvements and recommended services that will deliver the greatest impact.
Our Thermal Imaging service uses advanced infrared technology to detect heat patterns and temperature variations across your building, equipment, or energy systems. This non-invasive approach allows us to quickly identify hidden issues that may be driving energy loss, operational inefficiency, or safety risks.

What we do
Our building performance consultants carry out assessments such as energy audits and thermal imaging to ensure buildings perform at their best. We then recommend tailored solutions, which we can design for you. This may include designing MEP and SuDs systems or following PassivHaus and Low and zero carbon (LZC) design principles.
Whether your looking to achieve net zero, reduce energy consumption or maintain compliance, we have the technology and expertise to meet your goals.
Our step-by-step approach
Assessment
We start by meeting with you to understand your objectives, whether that’s achieving net zero, reducing energy consumption, maintaining compliance or all of the above. We also provide information on our assessment process and what to expect.
Design
After this, we run various tests to assess performance, including energy audits, thermal imaging, air quality monitoring and more to ensure that the building operates efficiently.
