Has anyone had success pursuing credit for the BPDO EPD Option 2 (Multi Attribute Optimization)? The companies I have had success finding documentation for are as follows:
Owens Corning (Thermafiber), Interface (GlasBacRE), mulitple Sherwin Williams products (LCA Action Plans), and Milliken (WellBAC).
Does anyone have any great resources or tips for tracking these down? I need more companies/products that have this documentation.

Sarah, we put a blog post together on this - take a look, but this is what we've found.

I have not seen any, but is anyone aware of a minimum square footage of paint that needs to be installed to be counted toward the criteria? I have a project considering accent walls using a few gallons of multiple products to get over the 10 product threshold. Thank you for your time.

None that I've seen. Make the accent wall (or mechanical closet) shine!

Hi Alan. That's right - the v4.1 Reference Guide/Addenda don't set a minimum quantity of a product. As long as it's permanently installed and within the relevant CSI divisions, you'll be able to count it.
