Application form: Buildings Interoperability and Performance Indicators Expert Working Group

Introduction

Thank you for your interest in applying to be part of the Buildings Interoperability and Performance Indicators Expert Working Group (EWG). This survey collects essential information to understand your background, experience, and motivation for participating. The objective of this application is to identify qualified and committed individuals who can contribute meaningfully to the development of the Buildings Interoperability and Performance Indicators project.

The primary aim of the Buildings Interoperability and Performance Indicators project is to conduct informative research on performance indicators to define what can be considered to be transitioning or climate-aligned within the SBTi system for the buildings sector. Informative research does not lead to changes in the target-setting requirements, but provides knowledge, insights and recommendations for the SBTi to take into account in a potential future standard revision.

In parallel, the project will assess and support the interoperability of the Buildings Criteria with the Corporate Net-Zero Standard (CNZS) v2.0, as part of an SBTi-wide project to update legacy target-setting resources.

The survey should take approximately 15 minutes to complete and will close at 11:59 PM PT on 3rd March 2026. Your progress will be saved automatically as you complete the survey.

You’ll receive a confirmation as soon as your submission is received. We will analyze and consider all applications submitted and will inform successful candidates via email.

You can download a PDF version of the survey here to review before responding.
