360 Compliance Check: Your First Step Toward Full-Scope Compliance
Compliance Laws Are Changing Are Your Buildings Ready?
If you manage buildings in more than one city or state, staying up to date on energy and reporting rules isn’t just a challenge—it’s a liability. Every year, new clean energy laws get implemented. They require benchmarking, emissions reporting, and code compliance. Missing even one detail could lead to penalties, extra costs, or missed funding opportunities.
A single violation could cost you thousands of dollars per building, per year. And many building owners don’t realize they’re out of compliance until a notice arrives in the mail.
That’s why we created the 360 Compliance Check. This is a smarter, faster way to see exactly where your portfolio stands. With one custom report, you’ll have full visibility into your energy reporting, legal risks, and what steps to take next. It’s your starting point for total building compliance clarity.
What Is a 360 Compliance Check?
Think of the 360 Compliance Check as a deep dive into your building’s legal health. While a standard energy audit might help you find ways to save energy, it often overlooks the laws and regulations that determine whether your building is actually in compliance.
A 360 Check is different. It looks at your properties through the lens of both performance and legal responsibility, giving you the information you need to avoid fines and plan with confidence. It’s designed for commercial building owners, especially those managing properties in multiple states, who want to stay ahead of the curve, not scramble to catch up.
This full-scope review covers everything from local energy codes to state benchmarking rules to national clean energy mandates. The result is a straightforward report that shows which buildings are on track, which are at risk, and what actions you need to take to fix any gaps.
How It Compares to a Standard Energy Audit
A lot of building owners assume that getting an energy audit means they’re safe. But that’s not always true.
Energy audits are focused on efficiency, they tell you how to improve equipment or reduce utility bills. What they don’t do is show whether you’re meeting all the legal requirements tied to energy laws, reporting standards, or emissions caps.
The 360 Compliance Check bridges that gap. It covers legal obligations, performance metrics, and documentation review. It also gives you a detailed timeline so you know exactly when and how to act. This is especially important if your properties are located in cities like New York, Boston, Denver, or Los Angeles, where building performance standards are already enforced.
What’s Inside the Report?
The final 360 Compliance Report is customized for your portfolio. It doesn’t just list what’s wrong, it explains where you’re compliant, where you’re not, and how to close the gaps.
You’ll see an evaluation of your benchmarking data, a review of your audit history, and a breakdown of all laws that apply based on your building’s location, type, and size. If anything is missing or overdue, it will be clearly outlined with suggested next steps.
The report also includes an estimated risk score for each property. This lets you prioritize which buildings to address first and helps you avoid costly surprises. You’ll know whether your sites qualify for clean energy law compliance incentives, which deadlines are approaching, and what documentation needs to be prepared.
Why You Should Act Now
Energy laws aren’t just coming, they’re already here. In major cities across the country, building owners are facing strict deadlines tied to performance metrics, emissions caps, and reporting accuracy. The penalties for falling short are real and growing.
Some cities now fine owners for missing a single benchmarking report. Others charge monthly fees for failing to meet emissions targets. In some states, buildings that don’t comply with updated energy codes are ineligible for rebates or utility incentives.
By acting now and getting a full 360 Compliance Check, you can protect your investments, avoid penalties, and qualify for upgrade funding before it runs out. It’s also a great way to centralize planning across a multi-city portfolio, ensuring that every site stays aligned with changing laws.
A Real Example: Over $50K Saved in Avoided Fines
One commercial property group, with buildings spread across Chicago, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C., booked a 360 Compliance Check after receiving a notice of violation in one city. What they discovered was eye-opening.
The report revealed missing energy benchmarking reports in D.C., unfiled audit documentation in California, and a rapidly approaching emissions deadline in New York. With the 360 Check in hand, they were able to fix the issues, file all overdue reports, and avoid more than $50,000 in fines.
Even more, the check uncovered that several of their buildings were eligible for energy efficiency rebates, opportunities they would’ve missed without the review.
Is a 360 Compliance Check Right for You?
If you’re managing buildings in different cities or states, there’s a high chance your portfolio is exposed to regulatory gaps. This service is especially helpful for those who recently acquired new properties, made renovations, or haven’t conducted a full compliance review in the last 12 months.
The 360 Check helps you answer critical questions: Are we missing reports? Are we tracking the right metrics? Do our audits align with the latest codes? What’s our legal risk?
Even if you think you’re in good shape, a quick check can either confirm you’re covered or reveal blind spots before they become expensive.
Final Word: Protect Your Portfolio with One Report
With energy laws tightening and deadlines coming faster than ever, a simple energy audit is no longer enough. You need full-scope visibility. The 360 Compliance Check gives you exactly that, a detailed, legally informed compliance map for your entire property portfolio.
From preventing penalties to unlocking incentives, this one report sets you up to make smart, informed decisions. And with expert support included, you’ll have help at every step of the way.
