For construction teams

Baselining and M&V, built into the build.

Edviro sets an independent energy baseline during fit-out and measures the building against it. Variance shows up while the contractor is still on site. The owner receives an owner-ready report at handover.

In practice

Catch the variance before the owner does.

Independent baseline, measured variance, reviewed fix. The owner inherits the record the build was checked against.

Fit to metered data during fit-out. Locked before occupancy.
Measured load runs 8% over the design model in weeks 3–4. The GC gets the evidence now, not a surprise at handover.

From design to handover

Six steps, one baseline.

Review is a step in the build, not a report at the end. Each variance reaches a person while it is still cheap to correct.

Design modelThe engineer’s model is the reference the build is measured against.
Baseline lockedAn independent baseline is fit to metered data during fit-out.
Variance flaggedMeasured load is compared with the model each week. Deviations reach the GC with evidence.GC review
Commissioning fixThe fix is tracked as work. The next weeks show whether it held.
HandoverThe owner receives an owner-ready M&V report and the calibrated baseline.
Ongoing verificationThe same baseline keeps checking the building after occupancy.

The building keeps its baseline after the crews leave.

The owner inherits the calibrated baseline, the asset records, and the verification loop. The platform that checked the build keeps checking the building.

Questions from builders

Construction FAQ

What is an energy baseline and why does it matter for construction?

A baseline is a measured model of how a building uses energy, fit to metered data and weather. Edviro sets it during fit-out. Every later performance or savings claim is measured against it, not taken on trust.

How does Edviro provide independent measurement and verification (M&V)?

Edviro fits the baseline to metered data and compares measured performance against it each week. Variances go to the general contractor as they appear. The owner gets a report in plain language.

Does Edviro keep working after the building is handed over?

Yes. The same baseline and verification continue after occupancy. Faults and waste in a new building surface early, before they become normal.

Can Edviro support performance guarantees and incentives?

Edviro produces independent, owner-ready M&V documentation tied to measured data. It can support performance guarantees, utility incentive applications, and financing reviews. Whether a program accepts it is that program’s decision.

How does the as-built model compare to the design model?

As metered data comes in, Edviro builds a model of the building as it performs and checks it against the design model. Variance surfaces during the build, when it is cheap to correct. The owner inherits a calibrated baseline.
