Our team is trying to estimate about where our project is in achieving WELL certification (and at what level) prior to registration. In reviewing page 17 of the WELL Building Standard, we have used the formula to determine the Concept Scores, based on estimates. From here, I am trying to understand two things: 1) how are Innovation features accounted for? 2) is the "Total and WELL Score" simply an average of the Concept Scores?

Carina,
On page 9 (page 5 if printed) of the Standard, it is written that you need 40% of the applicable optimizations for gold, and 80% for platinum. Innovations should not be a bonus and therefore not be included on the denominator. Other systems, LEED or BREEAM have the bonus points outside the denominator.
For your second question, I think you just add everything and divide after that, so concepts (categories) with more optimizations (credits) will have bigger impact.
