Services & Projects
Consulting Services
Sage can work with your project team to add the “green expertise” you need to succeed. We offer a portfolio of services, including:
Contract development
Contracts incorporating green performance can be difficult to negotiate. We can work with your attorney to craft contract language that will meet your needs for your specific project and be acceptable to all parties: the owner, architect, contractor, surety, or lender.
High-performance system evaluation
Whether you are evaluating geothermal heating/cooling, photovoltaic power generation, or stormwater detention and reuse – we can provide you with real-world experience and insight into the best way to integrate these technologies into your project for maximum gain.
Materials selection and sourcing
We offer extensive experience within the local supplier community to help you locate and procure the optimum materials for your project.
Certification management
Navigating the green certification process can be troublesome to an unfamiliar project team. Sage developed the first green certified home in St. Louis, and we have experience with the major certification agencies that we can bring to your project.
Permitting support
Green technologies sometimes require interaction with building officials to take full advantage of the benefits of the technology. We can be your liaison to work through issues ranging from unvented attics to grey-water reuse.
Project team engagement
We can help you identify the right team for your job and provide any training necessary to help you achieve success. We have experience with many design consultants and trade contractors across the region. We have trained all of the trade contractors that we work with, and we know how to help your team scale the learning curve, minimizing delays and and maximizing efficiency.
Services for developers and investors
Investors and stakeholders often have a diverse set of goals and objectives for each project. We can help you analyze these options, whether they are financial valuation, risk management, or securing governmental or regulatory incentives.
