It is well understood today that buildings generate about 28% of the global greenhouse gas emissions today. The United Nations Global Status Report projects that buildings need to be at least 30% more energy efficient to achieve Paris Agreement goals.

Both these global and local pressures are being felt by those who operate healthcare facilities.

To ensure a give healthcare facility can address sustainable initiatives at scale and on the floor, analytics are needed. What is often difficult for both facilities managers and property portfolio managers alike, is how to implement standardized analytics in a standardized way. In this paper we will provide an approach that Grosvenor Engineering used, in conjunction with VerdeOS to provide Sustainable Building Manager analytics service. This approach can serve as a guide to consider what it will take to ensure your healthcare facilities are on track to be more sustainable than they are today.
