Need for both ‘compulsory’ & ‘voluntary’ benchmarks
Legislated Compulsory Standards:Ensure that a minimum compulsory standard for
sustainable development is nationally required andimplemented by all – these must adapt and become
more stringent and broad-based over time.
Voluntary Benchmarks & Leadership:
Provides stretch targets for leaders to go beyond minimum compulsory standards – drawsorganisations into new levels of transformation
beyond legislated requirements.

• Position your building’s actual performance(consumption) against industry performance(consumption)
• Position your buildings within your own portfolio
eg. level of energy efficiencyPoor
