GREEN DESIGN FIRMS AND CONTRACTORSOn his first day in the Oval Office, President Biden signedan executive order recommitting the U.S. to the ParisAgreement. With new targets set to curb carbon emissionsand build a greener, more resilient future, design firmsand contractors are now tasked with helping ownersreshape what it means to be green in the age of COVID-19.Revenue numbers for this year’s Top 100 GreenDesign Firms and Contractors show signs of a marketin transition. Total design revenue is 6.41 billion, a12% drop from last year’s 7.28 billion. Contractingrevenue is also down to 69.85 billion from 72.71billion last year, a 3.9% drop.Despite these dips, design firms and contractors sayowners now more than ever want projects to incorporate green building standards, such as LEED, Envisionand Parksmart, to reduce outside environmental footprints. Other standards, such as improving the healthand well-being of building occupants, can add an additional shade of green to what is built.“The pandemic has not fundamentally changedhow our clients view sustainable buildings,” says EricSheffer, principal at Nashville-based SSR (Smith Seckman Reid). “But it has expanded emphasis on health,wellness and indoor environmental quality.”Building to StandardsIndoor healthy building standards such as WELLBuilding, Fitwel and Living Building Challenge are“all gaining significant traction in the constructiondesign market,” Sheffer says, and SSR is actively “advocating to our clients to pursue factors which positively affect health and wellness in their designs.”But rather than solely focusing on achieving a particular sustainability certification or healthy buildingrating, green design firms and contractors are findingthat owners are hoping to build resiliency from theGreen Design by MarketsTotal 2020 Revenue 6.41 billion(Measured millions)GovernmentOffices 567.8 8.9%Hotels 98.9 1.5%Industrial/Manufacturing 89.6 1.4%Multi-UnitResidential 211.8 3.3%Retail 103.7 1.6%OtherBuildings 255.1 4.0%Mixed Use 234.4 3.7%Airports 432.5 6.7%CommercialOffices 1,366.8 21.3%Non-BuildingMisc. 1,091.2 17.0%Health Care 890.2 13.9%Education 814.912.7%Sports, Civic,and Ent. 256.8 4.0%SOURCE: ENR44 ENR September 13/20, 2021 enr.com0920 GMR Overview.indd 449/14/21 6:28 PM

Such considerations include environmentalrisks such as wildfires and floods and social concernssuch as pollution, public health and carbon footprint.“The focus on health and wellness has intensifiedsignificantly as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,and we are seeing a shift in responsibility for drivingthese improvements,” says Gunnar Hubbard, principaland sustainability practice leader at Thornton Tomasetti. “Previously tenants took the lead when it cameto greening their spaces, but now building owners,especially in the office sector, are faced with a historicreset in the way tenants use their space.”More owners are finding that they need to showwhat they are doing to promote health and wellness toattract and retain tenants, says Hubbard. To do this,many are opting to pursue the International WELLBuilding Institute’s WELL Health-Safety rating tohelp tenants feel more comfortable as they return totheir buildings.“The emergence of WELL standards reflects agrowing focus on the health and wellness of buildingoccupants and how they use the space in addition tooperational performance and energy conservation,”says Hubbard.

Additional goalsinclude creating a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035 and a net-zero emissions economy byno later than 2050.The recently released Intergovernmental Panel onClimate Change (IPCC) report, “Climate Change2021: The Physical Science Basis,” sounded an additional alarm about climate change’s detrimental effectson the environment and world economies. It adds another layer of urgency to Biden’s emissions goals.Although significantly reducing carbon emissionswill have immediate benefits on air quality, it couldtake “20-30 years” to see global temperatures stabilize.“With uncertainty related to climate change andpandemic awareness, resilience is also becoming a factor in more private-sector projects as owners need tohelp protect their buildings and patrons,” adds SSR’sSheffer. “In the past year, we’ve had more clients approach us about pursuing carbon neutrality for theirnew buildings or existing building portfolios than anyother previous year.”Carbon ConditionsIn the past year, green design firms and contractorsreport that building performance standards are beingdriven less by new technologies or products, and more46 ENR by market pressure as public awareness grows of themagnitude and associated risk of the climate crisis.Increasingly, investors, supply chains and employeesare all asking for evidence of immediate and impactfulaction toward carbon and climate-resiliency goals.For some design firms, the same goals established for projects are being applied to their clientscompany-wide.“The pairing of these two topics—resiliency andcarbon-neutrality—is at the heart of our integratedlearning right now,” says Maria Papiez, director ofsustainable design at Ewing Cole. “We are maintainingour existing efforts to deeply reduce operational energyuse and GHG emissions (CO emissions from fossilfuel combustion and industrial processes) while alsotargeting reductions in the GHG emissions associatedwith the embodied carbon of materials.”Resilient design strategies can sometimes connectto and impact operational and embodied carbon emissions in opposing ways, Papiez explains. For example,one aspect of reducing embodied carbon is limiting thequantity of material used in buildings through leanerdesign and elimination of redundant or unnecessaryproducts. At the same time, resilient design might suggest additional systems or materials to mitigate disruption due to future climate change.“Each project presents opportunities to evaluate theSeptember 13/20, 2021 enr.com0920 GMR Overview.indd 469/14/21 6:28 PM

THE TOP 100 GREEN DESIGN FIRMS AND CONTRACTORSbest balance among these variables specific to the project typology and location,” says Papiez.For example, the primary climate-dependent energy performance drivers are envelope and ventilation. By improving an envelope’s thermal performance and including energy recovery on ventilationair streams, designers can mitigate the effects of anuncertain future climate (resiliency) while simultaneously improving building energy performance (operational energy emissions).Additionally, recent building codes and standardsaddressing decarbonization have seen a significantincrease in ESG reporting and tracking, driven by thefinancial industry, explains Rachel Bannon-Godfrey,senior principal and global sustainability leader forStantec’s buildings practice. Responding to the market signals sent by investor groups might result infaster progress within the building industry than ithas achieved by itself so far, she says.The economic impacts of the pandemic put apause on many projects, large and small. At the sametime, “the topics of electrification and embodied carbon saw a massive spike in interest,” says BannonGodfrey. This opened the door to more significantdiscussions about reuse instead of new construction,proposals for climate action planning and climate riskassessment. And as the market appetite for net-zero,carbon-neutral and resilient buildings grow, so doesthe need for standardization of the definitions andcalculation methodologies to ensure accountabilityand meaningful action, she says.“Every design path, every design decision madeby every member on a project team, should lead toavoiding greenhouse gas emissions and supportingenvironmental justice,” says Bannon-Godfrey. Because rating systems have become a recognizable indicator of achievement within the building industry,“every rating system should double down on theirtargets and thresholds for operational and embodiedcarbon to make sure every project meets the Architecture 2030 Challenge, and what the IPCC is tellingus we need to do today,” she says.Adjusting Building StandardsCompared to achieving building sustainability certifications, the overall process for achieving carbonneutrality is often similar across market sectors, withadjustments to building design/construction basedon local climate and building type. Market conditions and shortages can sometimes make meetinggreen building certifications more difficult if flexibility is not built into the standards.Overall, balancing sustainability standards and re48ENR“Each projectpresentsopportunitiesto evaluate thebest balanceamong thesevariablesspecific to theprojecttypology andlocation.”Maria Papiez,Ewing Cole“LEED shouldadjust theircreditweighting toreflect thebenefitsprovided tobuildingoccupants.”Justin Shultz,EYPsilience with “carbon neutrality increases the importance of talking about environmental hazards withclients,” says Allison Wilson, sustainability director atAyers Saint Gross.The pandemic has accelerated clients’ willingnessand interest in sustainable structures, says Wilson.“The crisis continues to highlight that the built environment must support our health and well-being, andclients are increasingly interested in quantifying howspaces support human health,” she says. “Buildingstandards can be made more effective by placinggreater emphasis on ongoing performance.”And, Wilson adds, “Building a structure to meet aset of requirements on Day 1 is very different thanoperating and maintaining a building to meet thoserequirements every day.”Wilson points out that the LEED program sometimes penalizes for project aspects that are out of thedesigner’s control, “such as location or high, unregulated process loads.”What can be done to eliminate that flaw and position more buildings for success in the certification programs? Wilson suggests identifying alternative compliance paths within the credits that focus on aspects ofthe project that can be influenced by the design team.A major lesson learned from the pandemic is thatbuilding standards must be adaptable to the currenttimes and flexible to real-time constraints, explainsVictoria Watson, senior associate of high performancebuildings and communities at AECOM.“Envision published additional guidance on compliance with some credits that would have otherwise beenchallenging to achieve given the pandemic,” Watsonsays. Similarly, the U.S. Green Building Council adjusted its LEED v4.1 to respond to some market challenges with material availability and other factors thatproved challenging in LEED v4.Another issue with standards sometimes involvesthe rating system and why certain building characteristics receive higher credits than others. InASHRAE’s “Building Readiness Guide,” developedby the ASHRAE Epidemic Task Force, key measures to reduce COVID-19 exposure are also usedby the CDC as guidelines. They include increasingoutdoor air ventilation and increasing filters used inrecirculating systems to Minimum Efficiency Reporting Value-13 rating.“LEED currently provides credit for these strategies under IEQ Enhanced Indoor Air Quality Strategies, but the weighting is minimal,” explains JustinShultz, senior building performance analyst at EYP.“Given the increased protection associated with thesemeasures, LEED should adjust their credit weightingSeptember 13/20, 2021 enr.com0920 GMR Overview.indd 489/14/21 6:29 PM

LEED can help buildings be better prepared for the next outbreak.”Green Market ConditionsExactly how the pandemic has reshaped or undercutsustainable design and construction remains unclear.In an article published last year in the Nature Climate Change journal titled “Temporary Reduction inDaily Global CO Emissions During the COVID-19Forced Confinement,” researchers estimated that government shutdowns contributed to a 17% decrease incarbon emissions. “Many international borders wereclosed and populations were confined to their homes,which reduced transport and changed consumptionpatterns,” causing a decrease in pollution output, anabstract of the article explains.However, ENR’s Top 100 Green Design Firmsand Contractors data show government shutdownsmight have had a much more detrimental effect onthe ability of some green projects to continue totheir construction stage.On theWebFor expandedcontent on theENR Top Lists,see enr.com/toplists.Median revenue for green design firms fell 27.2%,from 26.91 million to 19.59 million. On the otherhand, median revenue rose 3.4% for green contractors,from 297.2 million to 307.29 million this year.On this year’s Top 100 Green Design Firms list, afew notable firms are missing. Jacobs and Tetra Techboth did not file a survey this year. Last year, theyadded 473 million to the list. However, Stanley Consultants (ranked No. 8 this year), which did not file a2019 survey, added 201 million to the list this year.The top four firms are all in the same positionsas last year, but there are few new faces at the top,including Stanley and BR A Consulting Engineers(ranked No. 19).On the Green Contracting list, the top three firmsall held their positions from the prior year. Reportedrevenue numbers generally outpace last year’s rankingsuntil more than halfway down the list, where revenueis much lower than previously ranked contractors.Ten firms that were on the list last year didn’t filethis year, and another firm asked to be removed overdoubts about their revenue numbers.According to data obtained from the U.S. GreenBuilding Council and the International Well BuildingInstitute, the number of U.S. LEED and WELL certified projects have concentrations in the Southwestand the New York, New Jersey and Connecticut area(see p. 46) over the last five years.
