Sustainable Design
Autodesk BIM solutions help make sustainable design
practices easier, more efficient, and less costly
by enabling project participants to create coordinated,
digital design information and documentation. This
information can then be used to more accurately
visualize and simulate performance, appearance,
and cost, thereby helping to deliver the project
faster, more economically, and with the potential
for reduced environmental impact. Much of the specific
information required for sustainable design, analysis,
code compliance, and certification becomes routinely
available as a by-product of the design process,
helping to save time and money.
We're LEED AP!

Technology has joined the U.S. Green Building Council
(USGBC) in their mission to transform the way buildings
and communities are designed, built and operated.
Establishing a socially and environmentally responsible
environment improves our quality of life and helps
preserve this world for future generations. As a
USGBC corporate member, Inlet Technology stands
alongside more than 6,300 industry leading organizations
helping to shape the future of green design.
Recently, select Inlet Technology Applications Engineers
earned their Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED) accreditation to provide you with
the best green building practices, tools and solutions
available. Our team can help you utilize Building
Information Modeling (BIM) tools and streamline
the LEED certification process. Inlet Technology
is currently offering training courses, lectures,
and support for Autodesk’s Energy Analysis software
Ecotect Analysis and Green Building Studio.

Is BIM Sustainable?
Today more that 50% of Architecture Firms across
the country are using Building Information Modeling
to design and document their projects. More and
more engineering consultants are also realizing
the power of a system that is computable and flexible.
Overwhelming responses have not been focused on
how fast they can get the projects out the door,
but how well thought out and coordinated the designs
are now being documented. Seeing exactly what all
the contributors to the Building Information Model
(BIM) are currently working on has opened dialogs
and conversations as the project is developing,
which in turn, has presented solutions well before
a problem arises. Sustainability means long-term
benefit for the environment, project life and the
users – BIM is not just allowing, but facilitating
design decisions early in the design process, which
contribute to the overall quality of the finished
project.
Integrated Project Delivery brings all the players
together from concept to completed construction.
Ideas and decisions are reviewed collaboratively
and with Building Information Modeling’s ability
to quantify all elements of the design, the Team
is able to benefit from continually updated information
as the design progresses.
Bring it all together on your next project by using
a holistic approach – Building Information Modeling
and Integrated Project Delivery… all inside the
context of Sustainable Design and Best Practices
of Construction.
