FAQs about INc1 :

Is there a list of Innovation strategies available to v4 projects?

I’m confused about how many points I can earn for each strategy (innovation vs pilot credit vs exemplary performance). Is there a limit on each type of strategy if we want to earn all five Innovation points?

We achieved exemplary performance for more than two credits. Can we claim more than two points?

One of the credits we used for exemplary performance didn’t actually end up earning exemplary performance. Can we replace it with a different credit that did?

We didn’t claim one of our credits as an exemplary performance point under INc1 during the design review, but now we’d like to because it earned exemplary performance per the review comments. Is it possible to claim it now?

CI-v4 INc1:Innovation

Can you get an ID credit on a CI project from being in an EBOM certified building?

Now that v4 has changed things a bit, I was wondering if I could apply the EBOM cert for an ID credit on my CI projects in a certified building.

Allen, can you elaborate on how those two points came about? My understanding of the v4 changes is that there is no longer a dedicated credit that awards points simply for being in an EBOM-certified building; however, you can leverage some base building programs to apply to a fitout project. This generally fits under the O&M Starter Kit credit, where you can earn either 1 or 2 points in the IN credits. https://www.usgbc.org/credits/new-construction-core-and-shell-schools-new-construction-retail-new-construction-healthc-204?return=/credits/New%20Construction/v4.1

Does the EBOM certification have to be current? I have a base building that was certified in 2011 and recertified in 2015, but doesn't appear to have submitted again for recertification.

I used a certification from 2010 with no recertification.
