What is the timing for the submission of the Construction Rating?

The submission of the Construction Rating, as part of the Estidama framework, is required at the completion of construction. This phase is crucial because it allows the project team to document and verify that the construction aligns with the sustainability standards and guidelines established during the planning and design phases.

Evaluating the project at this point ensures that all sustainable practices outlined in previously submitted documents were implemented correctly. It also allows for the assessment of actual performance against the expected outcomes, ensuring compliance with the principles of Estidama.

By submitting the Construction Rating at completion, project teams provide the necessary evidence and reporting on how well the building meets sustainability goals, effectively closing the loop between design intent and built reality. This timing is critical for obtaining formal recognition and certification under the Estidama system, as well as for demonstrating a commitment to sustainable development in the region.
