SKArating Offices is for office interior fit-out and refurbishment projects of every size, from a few meeting rooms to multi-floor headquarters. It helps clients and project teams make better choices across the spaces people work in every day, and evidence them with an independent, recognised assessment.
Office Environmental v2.0 is live today. A Social & Wellbeing scheme is under development and an Economics & Value scheme is coming soon, so that office projects can assess and report across all three pillars of sustainability.
Schemes in this sector
Offices Sector Steering Committee
Each scheme is guided by a Sector Steering (or Development) Committee and Sustainability Technical Committees. Between them, they bring together clients, designers, consultants, contractors, engineers and industry bodies, who keep the scheme grounded in real sector practice and push it to drive genuine performance change.
The Offices committee has up to 12 members who work in the sector, from real estate and fit-out to operations, procurement and sustainability. Appointed by the SKArating Board, it advises on sector needs across all three pillars, reviews proposed impact categories and Good Practice Measures for how well they’ll work in practice, recommends development priorities and helps the schemes reach the wider sector.
Contact the Steering Committee
The Offices Sector Steering Committee wants to hear from anyone using, specifying or delivering offices projects. Messages reach the committee through the SKArating team.
