The BCA Green Mark for Office Interior is an initiative of the Building and Construction Authority (BCA) to promote and recognizes environmentally friendly and sustainable practices and features in office tenants. It complements NEAs Energy Smart Office Label and BCA Green Mark for Building Schemes which assess the building whereas BCA Green Mark for Office Interior assesses the office tenant of buildings. The offices are evaluated based on the following five criteria:
78
Under the assessment system, points are awarded for incorporating environment-friendly features which are better than normal practice. The assessment identifies designs where specific targets are met. Meeting one or more indicates that the tenants office is likely to be more environmental friendly than office where the issues have not been addressed. The total number of points obtained provides an indication of the environmental friendliness of the office design. Offices are awarded Platinum, GoldPlus, Gold or Certified rating depending on the points scored. The assessment process consists of a preliminary meeting with the project team or offices management team to brief on the assessment criteria and request for relevant reports and documentary proofs to substantiate the subsequent submissions. After that an assessment will be conducted which leading to the award of the BCA Green Mark. Subsequently, offices are required to have triennial assessment. This is to ensure that the Green Mark Certified office continues to be well-maintained.
