Alan will encourage collaboration between construction industry disciplines currently actively partnering: engineers, the Royal Institute of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) CIBSE and the British Property Foundation (BPF).

Alan comments:

“I feel incredibly privileged to be asked to chair this immensely experienced group. I believe the collective specialist design knowledge within the Futures Group is unparalleled.”

“My challenge is to channel this expertise to the benefit of the profession, influencing the construction industry, government & building user behaviour. We will start supporting Ruth Reed as president of the RIBA by focusing on:

“Existing Buildings and domestic and non domestic buildings in meeting the challenges ahead to address climate change mitigation and adaptation.

“Evidence Based Design, measurement, post occupancy feedback & transparent assessment so we can learn & improve building performance”

He continues:

“We intend to use the RIBA’s Communities website as a portal providing an insight into the groups work & encourage debate amongst members.”

Another one of the group’s key roles is to respond to consultation papers. The group has recently released a response to Part L and Definition to Zero Carbon consultation papers, and are currently forming opinion on proposed changes to the Code for Sustainable Homes, the Code for Non-Domestic Buildings, Energy Performance Certificates and the Carbon Reduction Commitment.

Shingler joined Sheppard Robson in 1998 and started a sustainability group within the practice in 2000. Sheppard Robson were announced AJ100 Sustainable Practice 2009
