Sustainable Design Knowledge Management System

EVAtool is a software tool which aims to make things better. A Web 2.0 based Environmental and Sustainable Design Knowledge Management System specifically designed for architects and the building design process. The online dashboard makes it very easy for a user to apply specific information, data or research to a specific project.

EVAtool

EVAtool is the world’s most comprehensive and up to date single-source knowledge base for green building intelligence. EVAtool allows you to filter critical data to suit your practice’s needs, bringing relevant research direct to your design teams.

EVAtool follows a Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle, establishing a framework that systematically identifies the environmental impact of your activities at every design stage. The dashboard interface makes it easy to apply data from EVAcology to enable informed decision making.

Over time, you will build up a powerful and easily accessible resource that protects your core assets: i.e. your knowledge and experience.

EVAtool is a software as a service which aims to make things better, see the Key Features of EVAtool.

Sustainabilities biggest challenges solved

Empowerment and the ability to deliver on the low/zero carbon (LZC) agenda needs successful communication of shared information such as data, resources, tools and most importantly, the feedback loop of success and failure.

It is essential that this is done in the right format, at the right stage and with the right team. The EVAcology database is growing daily and includes content to assist established assessment procedures like LEED and BREEAM. As a subscriber you will get a private and secure account where your team can further refine this knowledge base by creating content, guidance and advice unique to your practice and market sectors.
