I have never used a GreenGuard certificate before.  The Maximum Allowable Predicted Concentrations are higher than those in the GreenGuard Gold certification.  Is the GreenGuard certification modeled to the office environment acceptable when documenting Low-Emitting Materials per the LEED v4.1 criteria?

No, GreenGuard Gold is required - for the reason you mention, the allowed predicted concentrations are higher than the LEED referenced standard allows.
