Building Potential Programs

Smart Buildings Center

Smart Buildings CenterThe Smart Buildings Center (SBC) is a multi-functional energy efficiency headquarters in Seattle, Washington. This facility is a place to meet, train and access our Tool Lending Library.


Tool Lending Library

The Smart Buildings Center (SBC) hosts a Tool Lending Library of diagnostic tools for short term loan available to building owners, managers and energy service professionals in Washington and Oregon. Learn about the Tool Lending Library on the Smart Buildings Center website.


Building Operator Certification

Building Operator Certification logoThe Building Operator Certification is a nationally recognized training program that offers facilities personnel the skills and knowledge to transform workplaces to be more comfortable, energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. Visit the BOC website.


Technical Assistance Helpdesks

The Smart Buildings Center’s Clean Buildings Performance Standard Helpdesk provides support, resources, and trainings to assist building owners in complying with the Washington State Clean Buildings Performance Standard. The K-12 Ventilation & Indoor Air Quality Helpdesk provides resources, guidance, and training for Washington State K-12 schools to help answer questions, resolve issues, and to improve the indoor environments in schools.

Building Potential is now offering Clean Buildings Performance Standard (CBPS) compliance assistance as a service to our members, helping accelerate compliance with the standard. We recognize that new funding opportunities—such as those provided by Commerce—may temporarily stretch staffing capacity for some members due to a surge in customer demand. Our role is to serve as a strategic resource to help ease that burden and ensure equitable access to compliance support for all members.
