Smart Support, Real Impact
From your first call to final results, our approach keeps things strategic and sustainable.
How We Integrate with Your Needs
We keep it simple, strategic, and aligned with your business goals. Here’s how we get started:
Discover
Book a quick call with our Partnership Lead. We’ll identify where you need support and which of our pillars—Navigate, Implement, or Leverage—are the best fit.
Define
We’ll determine the right engagement model: On Point (project-based support) or In Parallel (ongoing partnership).
Align
You get a flexible agreement that matches our value to your budget—no bloated retainers, no surprises.
Deliver
Then we get to work. With flexibility, grit, and deep expertise, we’ll help turn your sustainability investment into real business results.
Expert Sustainability Support—Without Adding Headcount
Sustainability stretches across every part of your organization—but most teams are under-resourced and overwhelmed. Whether you're a party of one or wearing sustainability as yet another hat, Parallel Sustainability™ gives you immediate, integrated support.
With hundreds of years of experience across our team, in various positions in the industry, we have the personal experience and understanding of what it means to execute a successful sustainability program, team and department.
Think of us as your fractional team: strategists, doers, communicators, and connectors who already speak your language and understand your goals. We offer the horsepower of a full internal team—without the ramp-up time, recruiter fees, or overhead.
One person can’t do it all. Not when sustainability touches every function—from product and supply chain to marketing and compliance. Our fractional model gives you on-demand capacity to scale up fast, avoid burnout, and keep progress moving—whether you need 10 hours a week or a full-scale push to meet deadlines. We're here for the long haul, providing innumerous organizations redundancy and institutional knowledge as internal teammates evolve.
Our team has helped shape the very frameworks and standards we guide clients through. From leading ILFI LP 50 efforts as well as staffing USGBC to accelerate the LEED v4.1 material credits to founding, staffing and accelerating mindful MATERIALS and co-creating the Common Materials Framework—we’ve been in the rooms where the decisions are made, all with the vision to ensure the systems are in place to ensure impact reduction can be rewarded through ROI. We know how to bridge strategy and execution, and we bring that depth to every engagement.
We come with a built-in network across the entire built environment. Whether it’s certifiers, specifiers, A&D, technology providers, owners, contractors, or fellow change-makers—you get access to the relationships, platforms, and insight it takes to move faster and make smarter decisions. We know the players, we know the tools, and we know how to get it done, and can put you in the right place at the right time to enhance your network overnight.
We Don’t Just Work in the Industry—We Work With It
We believe radical collaboration drives impact. That’s why we partner with organizations leading the charge in sustainable materials and market transformation.
