Fractional sustainability staffing for building product manufacturers.
The sustainability team you need, without the headcount.
Parallel embeds sustainability experts into your organization to bring the capacity, expertise, and industry perspective you need to turn sustainability priorities into business results.
Sustainability teammates, at the ready.
Sustainability touches nearly every part of your business, but building an internal team with every skill set you need isn't always practical.
Think of Parallel as an extension of your team. You have sustainability professionals who know your business and stay close to the work, plus additional expertise to call on when you need something different.
From one dedicated teammate to an entire sustainability department, we build support around your priorities, bandwidth, and business goals.

One team, an entire spectrum of support.
Start with the sustainability support your business needs today. Parallel's fractional sustainability staffing model gives building product manufacturers flexible access to experienced professionals, whether that's focused project support, additional capacity for your existing team, dedicated sustainability leadership, or an entire department.

Sound familiar?
You’ve invested in sustainability and earned the certifications, but haven’t seen those efforts translate into specifications or sales.
You have sustainability goals. No one has enough time to own them.
Your sustainability team is one person. And their list keeps growing.
You know you need to do something. You’re not sure what should come first.
You have a strategy. You need someone to actually execute it.
You’re doing the sustainability work. Sales and customers don’t always know what to do with it.
You need to know which sustainability investments are actually worth making.
We don't just work in the industry, we help move it forward.
Parallel is part of a broader sustainability ecosystem working across the building products industry and AEC community.
Through SMSC, we're connected to the organizations, frameworks, tools, and conversations shaping what comes next. Parallel brings that perspective directly to building product manufacturers, helping translate industry direction into strategy, implementation, and measurable business value.
We’re not learning the market when we join your team. We’re already in it.
