How does it work?
The Better Buildings Partnership is managed by the London Development Agency and overseen by a Board of Directors.
The BBP develops its solutions through a series of working groups, each of which takes up one main challenge facing the property market and attempts to develop a solution or toolkit which can help the market move to overcoming the challenge. Groups comprise BBP members, associate BBP members, industry groups as well as companies relevant to developing solutions.
The Working Groups are
- Green Leases Working Group
- Sustainable Benchmarking Working Grou
- Building Operations and Sustainable Retrofit Working Group
- Property Agents Working Group
- Owner and Occupier Working Group
The Green Lease Working Group produced and published a Green Lease Toolkit in April 2009 which is currently being trialled by BBP members and the wider industry.
The other working groups are in the process of developing tools and guidance, scheduled for publication in autumn and winter 2009.
