TrueGrade’s certification module provides structured tracking for green building and high-performance certification programs. Each certification follows a defined state machine from pre-certification through final award, with required checkpoints, rater visits, blower door tests, and corequisite checklists tracked at every stage.
| Program | Full Name | Governing Body |
|---|---|---|
| PHIUS | Passive House Institute US | PHIUS |
| ENERGY STAR | ENERGY STAR Certified Homes | EPA |
| DOE ZERH | Zero Energy Ready Home | U.S. Department of Energy |
| Indoor airPLUS | Indoor airPLUS | EPA |
| LEED | Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design | USGBC |
Multiple certifications can run concurrently on a single project. TrueGrade surfaces shared requirements (e.g., blower door test results used by both PHIUS and ENERGY STAR) to avoid duplicate work.
PHIUS-specific workflows: pre-certification, design review, construction QA, testing, and final certification.
