Technical Advisors
ILFI’s community of practice is vital to informing the technical development, continued industry leadership, and transparency of ILFI’s programs. ILFI’s volunteer technical advisors are critical partners who represent built environment and building industry leadership with deep technical expertise in relevant topic areas. A key role of these advisors is to weigh in on decisions pertaining to the development and implementation of ILFI’s program requirements.
ILFI has both Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs) and Individual Technical Advisors (TAs). TAGs comprise a group of advisors and are run on an annual cycle. TAG members are selected from a pool of applicants who respond to a public call. Individual TAs are engaged as needs and opportunities arise. If you have any questions about our technical advisory opportunities, please reach out to [email protected].
Energy and Carbon
The Energy and Carbon TAG advises on how ILFI programs can continue to lead building and product teams to achieve aggressive energy and carbon reduction targets and be combustion and fossil-fuel-free.
Material Health
The Material Health TAG identifies and synthesizes the latest research on chemicals of concern in the built environment and the impacts that building materials have on personal, community, and ecosystem health during their production, use, and end-of-life.
Organizational Equity
The Organizational Equity TAG informs, reviews, and provides feedback on the evolution of ILFI’s Just program, a social justice transparency platform for organizations to disclose progress on human resource and community stewardship practices.
Water
The Water TAG advises on how ILFI programs define the leading-edge vision and quantify the impact of what buildings can do to realign how water is valued, challenge insufficient current solutions, and achieve ambitious responsible and regenerative water use.
Individual Technical Advisors
TAs are tasked with examining specific issues and formulating recommendations in partnership with ILFI technical program staff.
