By Lauren Riggs, LEEP AP Manager, LEED and Building Performance Partnership USGBC

Tuesday, I participated in a panel at BOMA’s Every Building Show in Seattle, Wash. The topic: The Evolution of LEED for Existing Buildings: Operations and Maintenance.

Now, you’d think that we would have shared a lovely timeline of how LEED for Existing Buildings has grown from a renovation strategy baby to an operations-focused teenager – we didn’t. Instead the panel focused on our movement towards emphasizing building performance outcomes.
