Thought Design, 10 E Bridge St, Rockford, MI 49341, US

Catalyst Partners is a West Michigan-based consortium actively engaged in the development and implementation of sustainable and restorative design protocols for buildings, interiors, and products. We act as the "catalyst" that helps our clients establish their measurements and goals. Our experienced, environmentally focused network of design, engineering, scientific, and marketing professionals serves a client roster that includes architects, building contractors, interior designers, and product manufacturers in companies large and small. Our work is local, regional, national and international in scope. We are experts in the LEED certification process - our team includes LEED Accredited Professionals - and we keep current on the protocol's constantly evolving standards through our participation on U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) committees. We are strong advocates of a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) -based approach that results in quantifiable development and performance standards. As the term suggests, an LCA carefully examines the environmental impact of a product's or projects entire lifespan, from creation through disposal or (preferably) recycling/reuse. Catalyst Partners, we know from experience that adhering to practices that address the Triple Bottom Line of economic, environmental, and social responsibility can result in a "win-win-win" outcome for our clients. We address each client's unique needs by matching them with a carefully selected team of environmental experts. Our team works closely with the client, from project planning through completion, to assure the prescribed environmental objectives are incorporated into, and properly documented for, the project. We help project teams identify the strategies, guidelines, processes, and materials they will need to design, construct, operate and certify environmentally responsible buildings and tenant spaces using proven guidance templates. We provide energy assessment, modeling and commissioning services to guide high performance building systems decisions and also to document the requirements necessary for Energy Policy Act (EPAct) tax deduction submittals.
