Local Law 87 requires any large building over 50,000 square feet to undergo retro-commissioning and an energy audit every 10 years. According to the Mayor’s Office of Sustainability, approximately 15,000 properties in New York City meet these credentials and therefore must comply with this law. Properties are subject to an annual fine for not submitting an Energy Efficiency Report (EER) to the Department of Buildings. This creates an opportunity for property managers to make long over-due repairs and upgrades to their facilities under the guise of compliance. The benefits of engaging a qualified consultant to complete this process should result in energy savings that far exceed the cost, in addition to reduced maintenance costs and improved equipment longevity.

The Veritas Solutions Group Value

Veritas Solutions Group works with property owners to make compliance easy to achieve, providing extensive guidance throughout the entire process. We'll help determine when a building's report is due, develop a schedule that minimally impacts building operations, and ensure management can sufficiently plan and budget for any remedial work that is necessary.

The Veritas Solutions Group team will conduct a detailed energy audit to identify potential Energy Conservation Measures (ECMs) and execute retro-commissioning procedures of base building systems to ensure they are functioning properly and optimally. Our approach goes beyond simple compliance to ensure maximum value is attained, with consideration of both the property's short and long term strategies.

We offer a turn-key solution to compliance with LL87. We will complete an energy audit that results in actionable items for ownership to considerand thoroughly retro-commission your facility to make it function like new. Additionally, if you need help in executing these corrective actions we can handle it for you turnkey, from design, planning, implementation, to turn-over. At Veritas Solutions Group, we want to make the process as seamless as possible, while at the same time delivering value that you can act on.
