The BOMA BEST® Certification Program

North America's largest environmental assessment and certification program for existing buildings.

BEST-certified buildings lead the way in energy and water conservation, waste reduction, indoor air quality, and operational best practices. BOMA BEST® equips building owners, managers, and operators with the tools required to optimize performance, enhance efficiency, and drive innovation—ensuring buildings are not only high-performing but also healthier, smarter, and more resilient for the people who live, work, and play in them.

BOMA Canada oversees all administration of the BOMA BEST® program. To view full program information, fees and program questionnaires, click here.
