One Click LCA, a provider of construction life-cycle assessment software, has announced a strategic commercial partnership with the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC). This collaboration supports USGBC members by providing discounted access to One Click LCA software, offering educational opportunities and increasing outreach efforts to promote decarbonization across the construction industry in the U.S.
In the past few months, the U.S. Federal government has ramped up efforts to promote decarbonization in construction through various zero-carbon initiatives and climate standards, such as the Investing in America Agenda, the national definition of zero emissions buildings and new emission standards to eliminate onsite fossil fuel usage in federal buildings by 2030.

This strategic partnership will enable USGBC members to leverage these federal programs by offering educational resources and discounted access to life-cycle assessment software tools.
“We are excited to partner with USGBC to offer their members discounted access to our software and to promote the adoption of sustainable practices in the construction industry,” says Simon Slater, North American business development manager for One Click LCA. “This collaboration will help us reach a wider audience and support more professionals in their efforts to reduce the carbon footprint of their projects.”
“Our new partnership with One Click LCA will greatly benefit our members by offering tools and resources that empower projects with the knowledge and skills to create more sustainable buildings and communities,” says Rhiannon Jacobsen, managing director for U.S. market transformation and development at USGBC. “Our members are essential to our success, and we take pride in collaborating with organizations like One Click LCA, which share our commitment to transforming the built environment for the betterment of human and environmental well-being.”
