BEE Incorporations was recently recognized by Arc for its pioneer work in leveraging the Arc certification system to benchmark and improve building performance. Arc’s President and CEO Mahesh Ramanujam honored BEE’s four core members for their leadership and innovation on the following projects:
- Prada Alexandra House store (Hong Kong) – Alessandro Bisagni (Founder & President) and Stella Lu (Senior Project Engineer), for achieving world’s first retail store to be certified Arc and LEED v4.1 for Existing Interiors project (Gold)
- Changhua Christian Hospital (Taiwan) – Shawn Jang (Managing Director of BEE Taiwan), for leveraging Arc to achieve Taiwan’s first LEED-certified hospital (Gold).
- City of Savona (Italy) – Francesca Galati (Managing Director of BEE Europe), for utilizing Arc to acheive Europe’s first LEED for Cities (Gold)
BEE’s commitment to building sustainability advances the conversation around building performance and improves the quality of life of the tenants and stakeholders impacted by these projects.
Arc is a platform that provides tools to collect, analyze, and communicate information about the operations of a space. Prada Alexandra House is the first retail space to use Arc to collect analytical data and receive certification under the Arc process. Building performance data is collected by Arc from several sources, including meters, utility bills, and user surveys, and is organized into 5 performance categories: Energy, Water, Waste, Transportation, and Human Experience. This data is then sorted into a simple graphic that can be used to track performance and streamline green building certification.
