Energy performance is becoming a priority for building owners and there are new local government regulations every month, making ‘getting to zero’ a priority. The AIA 2030 Commitment program grows steadily but firms are still struggling to improve the performance of their projects across their portfolio. This session is for AIA 2030 Signatory firms, those who are curious about the program and also for those firms who just want to be competitive and achieve better performance. Presenters share deep experience working with firms all around the US. One half of success depends on understanding your project performance, learning from past work and understanding how the industry is evolving based on data and feedback loops. The other half of success is understanding how to transform your firm’s culture, project delivery methodology, processes and manage change to get buy-in. Participants will leave with information, frameworks and strategies to implement immediately for success.

Learning Objectives:

• Understand how building performance data can be the key to unlocking better performance and how to use the DDx to make the case and inform your target setting.
• Evaluate how to use Change Management strategies to overcome barriers such as buy-in, resistance and create a sense of urgency for implementing sustainability programs firm-wide and on projects.
• Leverage specific frameworks, roadmaps, and proven methodologies (provided in session) to create organizational agility, cross-functionality, innovation and change to achieve consistent profit/performance goals. Understand what factors influence implementation effectiveness.
• ReDesign (or create!) firm’s project delivery methodology to ensure integrative design is truly the foundation of project management to achieve consistent, high performance across all projects and protect profitability.
