The Ministry for the Environment commissioned this study to help central government organisations take practical action to reduce their impacts on the environment, economy and society. One obvious action is to fit-out government buildings to match current best practice for sustainability, and in response to this need the pilot of the New Zealand Green Building Council Green Star Fit Out rating tool was issued in December 2008. The tool defines more sustainable fit-outs based on a six-star scale.
This study investigates the value case for Green Star 4-, 5- and 6-star rated government office tenancy fit-outs.
