Our Process

Our Process: Explore, Model, Optimize, Decide

We work closely with the design team to collaborate and generate every feasible option for the project. Once those options are assembled, we run exhaustive scenarios combining embodied carbon and energy models. This can produce hundreds of thousands of individual energy and embodied-carbon model permutations — each one a valid data point that helps reveal trade-offs and opportunities.

From this vast set of results we distill the most promising options and guide the team through a short, focused decision workflow.

Four quick steps to a confident decision

  1. Alignment — Establish goals, constraints, and the range of options to explore.
  2. Modeling — Run comprehensive embodied carbon and energy simulations across all viable combinations.
  3. Analysis — Surface the solutions that offer the best mixes of performance, cost and carbon.
  4. Decision — Select the narrowed set of options and document the agreed approach for delivery.
