EDGE CERTIFICATION

We bring together a team of global experts to streamline and simplify the EDGE certification process. 

How do you get started with EDGE?

The first step is making sure you have the right people in place to help you. There are several key stakeholders involved in the EDGE certification process, some of which are required and some of which are optional. 

Select your certifier

A certifier is required to review the auditor’s work, make an independent decision and issue the certificate.

That’s us! We are a UK-based company that works as a certification body across the globe for EDGE. We are able to provide certification services to all your projects, regardless of where they are geographically.

Select your auditor

You will need an independent auditor to review your documentation and conduct a site visit.

We have a select group of accredited Sintali EDGE Auditors that we work with across the globe. Let us know where your project is and we will connect you with a local auditor who can help you.

Select your consultant*

Consultancy isn’t required for EDGE certification. The self-assessment can be conducted in-house.

However, it can be helpful to get external advice or outsource the process. We work with various EDGE Experts across the world and are happy to connect you with the right partner.

Certification fees

We offer three types of pricing.

Non-standard: If your project does not fall in the standard category, we will calculate a price for you depending on how many assessments on EDGE will need reviewing.

Portfolio: We offer custom portfolio pricing to allow companies to implement EDGE across all of their buildings and scale in a cost-effective and resource-efficient way.
