The Halifax Port Authority (HPA) is committed to incorporating sustainability practices throughout its planning processes and operations. As part of the HPA’s commitment to using the Envision Framework to support the integration of sustainability and resilience best practices into infrastructure projects, the HPA decided to conduct a baseline assessment and gap analysis of their standard practices.

What is the Envision™ framework?

ISI Envision framework logo

Envision™ is a sustainability rating system and planning guide for introducing sustainability considerations into infrastructure projects. Envision™ assesses individual project performance and how effectively a project contributes to the resilience of the community it serves.

The goal of the baseline assessment was to identify areas for improvement and highlight areas of strength. luuceo worked with the team, engaged members from the organization, and reviewed both project-specific and organizational documentation to understand their approach to project delivery. luuceo synthesized these details and compared them to the 64 sustainability indicators of the Envision framework. The resulting performance under the framework was used to develop a recommended approach for future projects and create a set of tools and best practices within a Sustainable Infrastructure Project Delivery Program.
