GreenWizard, Inc. – a web-based expert system that allows architects, engineers, and contractors to cross-search, compare, and document products for LEED and green commercial construction – today announced that just weeks after announcing a $1.15 million venture capital investment, the Company has quickly emerged as the top online search tool for finding green products and researching their attributes for LEED point contributions.
With more than 800 manufacturers and 200+ AEC firms actively accessing the GreenWizard database – either to list products or to research product attributes and their LEED point contributions – GreenWizard is currently being accessed by green professionals responsible for more than 86 building projects valued at (combined) $300 million. Indeed, GreenWizard is already the new standard for online LEED and green-product research, a reputation that will only grow as its database expands.
This leadership position in green product searches was recently highlighted by the introduction of a new product from GreenWizard, called Workflow Pro. For around .30 cents a day, Workflow Pro users can build and document construction projects, and search for building products in the GreenWizard database based on product category, region, green attributes, and GreenRank. (Users of Workflow Pro will soon be able to view product documentation, e.g. BIM, product specs, cutsheets, etc.) Upon completion of their projects, users will be able to automatically generate LEED documentation for submission to LEED online for project certification by the USGBC. GreenWizard also provides all users with an “opt-in” searchable “Service Provider Directory” to assist in finding talent for projects.
“We offer an easy-to-use online database that has significant cost avoidance for any AEC firm involved in a LEED or green project,” said Adam Bernholz, GreenWizard’s CEO. “But we also offer manufacturers access to an elite class of users: Architects, Specifiers, and Contractors who are actively sourcing, specifying, and ordering products, and that’s what’s at the core of our remarkable success.”
