D3G has been involved with the Rental Assistance Demonstration (RAD) program since its inception. D3G focuses on multifamily and affordable housing , and is a steward for the preservation of affordable housing, as evidenced by our commitment to this market. We provide the RAD Physical Condition Assessment which consists of three distinct scopes of work: Part 1 - Capital Needs Assessment (CNA) Report comparing Green vs. Traditional Requirements, Part 2 - ASHRAE Level 2 Energy Audit, and Part 3 - Utility Consumption Baseline (UCB). An objective of the RPCA is to identify opportunities to improve energy efficiency, maximize water efficiency, use re-used and recycled materials where practical, safeguard the indoor environmental quality of the property, and remove/re-use replaced materials and construction debris appropriately. Our Assessment Team personnel have vast expertise in multifamily construction engineering, energy auditing, and green capital needs assessment.
