BREEAM AP – Achieving the design credit at the Post Construction Assessment

Where a project will be undertaking a post construction stage assessment only (no interim assessment), to demonstrate that the criteria were met at the design stage a “BREEAM credit monitoring report” should be provided when the assessment is submitted, which shows that at the design stage of the project the building was still on target for the proposed BREEAM rating. This could be an excel document showing the issues that the design is on target for achieving with a short summary of how the BREEAM AP is steering the project for the correct rating.

As long as the criteria are met and the correct information can be gathered for your evidence, a design stage certification is not required.
