Case Study BIM for Net-Zero & ESG Compliance - Turning Model Intelligence into Measurable Sustainability
Case Study: BIM for Net-Zero & ESG Compliance Turning Model Intelligence into Measurable Sustainability Project Overview A 1.4 million sq. ft. mixed-use commercial development targeting Net-Zero Operational Carbon and stringent ESG reporting standards required more than energy-efficient systems — it required measurable, verifiable carbon intelligence from design through construction. The client’s mandate was clear: Quantify embodied carbon at early design stages Align material selection with ESG benchmarks Generate auditable sustainability reports Support green certification pathways (LEED / IGBC / BREEAM equivalent) Enable lifecycle-based carbon forecasting Roots BIM LLC was appointed to transform the federated BIM model into a carbon-accountable digital twin . The Challenge Traditional sustainability reporting often happens after design decisions are made. The risks: Late-stage material substitutions In...
