Lighting survey services for NYC buildings.

Every building is different. Our tiered service model lets you choose the depth of assessment your project requires — from a baseline inventory to a full project-development package.

Tier 01

Essential Survey

Existing conditions documentation. A current-state baseline or simple record of existing lighting infrastructure — without the full compliance workup.

Our field team captures a complete fixture inventory on-site: type, quantity, mounting, control method, and condition. Every area is photographed and logged against your floorplan so you can verify anything after the fact.

Best for owners who need a clean record of what is actually installed before planning capital work, approving a tenant fit-out, or responding to a lender, buyer, or insurance request.

Deliverables
  • Fixture schedule by area
  • Photo documentation (geo-tagged)
  • Condition assessment
  • Area-by-area inventory summary

Tier 02

Compliance Survey

Everything in Essential, plus the detailed compliance analysis your engineer needs for LL88 filing — light power density calculations, controls review, sub-metering assessment, and deficiency identification.

We inspect the controls strategy in every surveyed area — occupancy sensing, daylight harvesting, scheduled time-of-day, manual override — and measure light power density against the applicable NYC energy code thresholds.

You receive a compliance narrative that maps directly to LL88 filing requirements, flags every deficiency with its code reference, and projects the energy reductions available under a compliant retrofit.

Deliverables
  • All Essential deliverables
  • LL88 compliance findings
  • Controls strategy documentation
  • Light power density calculations
  • Deficiency identification + recommendations
  • Energy analysis with savings projections
Tier 03

Project+ Survey

Full project-development package for buildings planning active retrofits. Everything in Compliance, plus controls strategy, budget support, and specifications-grade documentation to support bidding and procurement.

When a retrofit is already on the capital plan, Project+ replaces the usual back-and-forth between owner, engineer, and contractor. We deliver a document package your team (or ours) can send straight to vendors for pricing.

That includes fixture-level specifications, a preliminary bill of materials, a controls schedule, and budget-grade cost estimates — all tied to the same field data captured during the survey.

Deliverables
  • All Compliance deliverables
  • Controls upgrade strategy
  • Budget-grade cost estimates
  • Product specifications for recommended fixtures
  • Preliminary BOM and controls schedule
  • Installation planning support
