How We Help

Inform, Help, Deliver

We work on construction projects between RIBA stages 0-6. Our service flexes to your needs, with a sharp focus on simplifying the process, eliminating risk and reducing project costs.

We work to suit the needs of your project, whether that’s a one-off assessment, a white labelled resource when you need it, or a fully managed, long term support across projects and disciplines.

RIBA Stage

Preparation & Brief / Concept Design

At RIBA stages 1-2 we equip you with the expertise and guidance you need for early concept designs and pre-planning. This is where we can be creative with construction types, building services and technologies.

We’ll ensure that you not only hit the brief, but are also able to entrench sustainable design from the start.

 

Developed Design

At RIBA 3 we support you throughout the planning phases, providing a comprehensive suite of energy modelling, assessments and technical advice to ensure a swift and successful application.

Taking the lead from your local planning policy, we will also address any environmental standards required like BREEAM, HQM or other client targets.

 

Technical Design

At RIBA 4 we start to apply our deep technical skills with more detailed modelling and assessment. Our job is to ensure the finalised design is compliant with building regulations and relevant planning conditions.

We then wrap up all of the reporting for building control submission.

 

Construction

Throughout construction we work with contractors to ensure that the build remains compliant, delivering onsite advice visits. We will also ensure that any changes to specification are managed to reduce risk.

We also take care of 1st fix diagnostic air testing and prepare for pre-completion testing for sound, air and ventilation compliance.

 

Handover & Closeout

Finally we deliver a rigorous test regime for air tightness, ventilation and sound insulation, in conjunction with thermographic surveys.

We then manage a smooth completion and handover process, delivering final reporting and certification for sign off.

 

Recent Projects

"BE are fantastic building energy assessors, with competency across many areas. We have found them very useful on small and large projects. With the larger projects they can provide a range of assessments with one point of contact. We submitted a planning application for 224 residential apartments for a site in Luton. BE provided the flood, acoustic, heat loss and SUDS reports. The scheme was consented and reports were excellent. We have found them to been frank and honest with their advice. They are also lovely people to work with… which is very important."
