Pick the outcome. We’ll run the play and carry the clipboard
1. Benchmark & Verify (ENERGY STAR)
We clean up your building data, get it into ENERGY STAR Portfolio Manager, and verify it with the precision DC and Maryland regulators require. Whether you're missing past benchmarks or up for third-party verification, we’ll handle it—start to finish. Our process ensures your energy score is accurate, defensible, and filed on time. Bonus: We give you a game plan to improve that score over time, so you're not scrambling next cycle.
- Use this when: Your data’s messy, your ENERGY STAR score is off, or you don’t know what it is, or you’re due for verification/compliance.
- What you get: QA + Portfolio Manager setup + third-party verification (if needed) + submission + measurement of your EUI (Energy Use Index)
- Utility bill audits
Outcome: Help to measure and verify your energy use.
2. DC BEPS Pathways & Filings
BEPS compliance doesn’t have to kill your budget or your brain cells. We help you choose the right compliance pathway—Performance, Prescriptive, or Alternative—based on your baseline score, building type, and financial goals. Then we file the necessary documents, track milestones, and make sure you don’t miss a beat (or a deadline). With us, there’s no guesswork—just clear strategy and timely execution.
- Use this when: You want to avoid BEPS penalties with a clear plan.
- What you get: Baseline analysis + pathway modeling + submission + representation (we will represent you on your behalf with the city you're in.
Outcome: The right pathway with no guesswork.
3. Audit → Action (ASHRAE Level I/II/III)
- We don’t do shelfware. Our ASHRAE energy audits are scoped to generate real, fundable energy conservation measures (ECMs) with payback you can show your CFO. We walk your property, crunch the numbers, and deliver a one-page ROI summary that tells you what to upgrade, how much it’ll save, and what incentives are on the table. Then we help you turn those recommendations into action.
- Use this when: You want to maximize your return on investment and increase your building value.
- What you get: On-site audit, and a list of energy conservation measures (ECM) with payback and a cost-savings forecast.
Outcome: A clear and precise plan for implementing savings
4. Procurement Savings Assessment
Energy supply contracts are often the easiest place to find immediate savings—and we know how to unlock them. We review your current energy contracts, evaluate market rates, and craft a smart procurement strategy that doesn’t just save money—it helps you fund compliance measures. It’s like refinancing your utility bill to pay for your upgrades. We evaluate your energy use to determine if you need a:
- Fixed rate (pay the same rate throughout the contract)
- Index (based on real-time fluctuations)
- Custom blend (Block & Index)
- Use this when: You need to supply savings to fund other upgrades
- What you get: Contract review + market check + rate strategy + understanding your needs risks and goals
Outcome: Budget-neutral upgrades - 1-3 year cost-savings
5. Environmental & Property Condition Assessments
If you're buying, selling, refinancing, or just need a clean CapEx plan, we combine environmental and property assessments with your energy compliance needs. Our due diligence aligns with BEPS and benchmarking regulations, so you don’t end up retrofitting twice. Lenders stay happy, ops stay compliant, and your strategy stays on track.
- Use this when: You’re buying, selling, refinancing, or you want a long-term plan.
- What you get: A full building condition report and environmental scope.
Outcome: A whole building analysis for compliance with stakeholder requirements
6. Facility & Contract Management (Optional Add-On)
Once the audits and upgrades are done, we can stick around to manage contracts, vendors, and ongoing performance. Think of it as having a part-time project manager who already knows your building—and knows how to keep it compliant, efficient, and on track. You decide how hands-on you want us to be; we’re ready either way.
- Use this when: You need someone to own the operations and vendor oversight.
- What you get: Contract, vendor, performance management, and positive results.

"In December 2012, Asset Solutions conducted an ASHRAE Level I energy audit for three of our buildings in Sterling, Virginia. The audits discovered a combined electricity savings of $499,769 with a payback of 3 years or less. Accordingly, I have no hesitation in recommending them as a sustainable energy company with which to do business."
