As a project administrator or WELL team member, you may wonder:
- How can I create WELL compliant documentation?
- What constitutes a high-quality document?
- How can I communicate this information to other team members?
To help start the process, we’ve compiled everything you need to know on generating and submitting WELL documentation. Continue reading or watch the video below to learn more about how to successfully create and submit your documentation.
Achieving WELL Certification involves two key processes — documentation review and performance verification — which evaluate if a project meets the requirements of the WELL Building Standard™. Every feature within the WELL Building Standard has a verification method (or, in some cases, more than one) associated with it, which requires either documentation or performance testing.
Upon registering a project for WELL Certification, project teams will begin gathering documentation as evidence that the project’s design, operations and policies incorporate WELL features.
Due to the holistic nature of WELL, the project administrator will likely coordinate the creation of WELL documentation amongst numerous team members of various expertise. By filtering your scorecard, you can begin delegating criteria to the responsible parties. The project administrator is ultimately responsible for the quality of the documents submitted and must complete a thorough quality control check of all documentation prior to submission for review.
