FAQs about INc1 :

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

What happened to all of the operational policies and plans that we could pursue for Innovation credit under LEED v2009?

How do I meet the requirements for the “Community outreach and involvement” innovation option?

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?

NC-v4 INc1:Innovation

Individual Components

Hi, Was wondering if someone has insight to this:

I have been providing LEED information for our finished Visual Display items that our company manufactures. I address the Recycled contents, Regional Materials, New wood...etc. through formulation in a spreadsheet, and print the combined results for the finished products. 

 Recently I've been asked for a breakout of each component within the build of each finished product (which would make a very busy reporting sheet). Are there cases where this is required?  - thanks.

Bobby, I'm not sure I understand your question. Do you mean you're asked for this information for each part of the product? This does seem overly detailed to me, and not specifically required, but I could imagine reasons that individual LEED project teams might want it. Have they explained why?

Did you provide recycled content information? My only thought would be they were trying to reconcile percentage amounts and overall material costs if you didn’t break it out

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I've received a few forms that want the make-up components along with their relative percentages rather that the complete assembly as a whole. Our selling prices aren't what the end user pays - we sell to a contractor who re-sells as part of his job bid to the end-user. Since I break out the pre- post- consumer, wood ... etc. percentages for the finished product, I think this would work for the end-users calculations as it applies to their costs. However these requests make me wonder if I'm missing something here. - thanks again.
