For universities
Clean construction policy
starts at universities.
Faculty wrote the studies and set the baselines these programs rely on. Universities can now teach with BuiltCold, operate programs for public partners and study the data those programs produce.
01 / Teaching
Students learn on the tools the industry uses.
Partner universities use BuiltCold in courses and studios. Students take a design through quantities, EPDs and compliance against a real program, and arrive on their first project knowing how it works.

- Configures requirements with the partner
- Reviews submittals and grants waivers
- Reports to the partner and the public
02 / Operating programs
Operate a program for a public partner.
A government that wants a program without the overhead of running it can have a university operate it on BuiltCold. We set it up with you, train your team and support the launch.
03 / Research
Questions the program data can help answer.
Program owners decide what researchers see, and supplier records are never part of it. These are the questions we hear most often.
R.01EPD quality and coverageWhere EPDs exist, when they expire, and how plant-specific and industry-average data differ in practice.
R.02Baselines and thresholdsHow baselines are set, how the market responds when a threshold moves, and how ready a supply chain is before a limit applies.
R.03Policy outcomesWhat programs achieve across jurisdictions, pathways and project types, measured from submittals.
