Maintaining in-house, full-time LEED® - accredited professionals enables Big-D to more easily facilitate green-build projects.

Our method produces environmentally friendly results for the site, the community, and the occupants. During the same time, we manage and control costs so LEED® points can be achieved in a cost effective manner, and yield an aesthetically pleasing, energy efficient project.

Big-D Construction is a member of Clean Utah, a government program that encourages and rewards businesses for going beyond compliance to preserve and protect Utah’s environment. Through this program, Big-D is currently developing an Environmental Management System, which is a continual cycle of planning, implementing, reviewing and improving the processes and actions that an organization undertakes to meet its business and environmental goals.

Big-D also recently became e2 Business certified. This certification recognizes companies that continually take steps to operate as an environmentally and economically sustainable business; make commitments to continue these efforts in the future; and contribute to a healthier and more sustainable Salt Lake City. There are sustainable principles that come with an e2 Business certification, and by adhering to these principles, Big-D has taken on a leadership role in environmental stewardship within the Salt Lake City business community.
