Management of the process of certification of sustainable buildings in the HQE system
Do you need objective proof that your investment meets the requirements of sustainable housing?
DEKRA experts, in co-operation with the Cerway operator (France), manage the certification process in the HQE system. The scope of services provided includes management of the application, the contracting, organisation and conduct of audits and also the preparation of reports.
DEKRA also trains and accredits specialists participating in projects certified in the HQE system - HQE clerks (reporters) and auditors.
