One of the institute’s key missions is to present specialized knowledge in an accessible way and share it with various groups in a targeted manner. It offers a wide range of consulting and coaching services—for individuals, professionals, communities, and other interested parties. These services are complemented by training programs and extensive public outreach efforts.

In addition, the institute supports the use of environmentally friendly building materials and advocates for the introduction and implementation of quality assurance systems. The “Energy-Efficient Construction” department focuses on applied research and pilot projects aimed at optimizing the energy efficiency and environmental performance of new construction and renovation projects.
