System Operators Recognised by the Federal Building Ministry / Certification Offices for BNB
The BNB was developed for federal construction measures, but may also be used by all public and private developers for evaluations. The voluntary use of the BNB for building certification by private and public clients is subject to a separate regulatory procedure. The basis for this is the notice on the use and recognition of rating systems for sustainable building of 15 April 2010 (Federal Gazette No. 70 of 7 May 2010, page 1642 ff.) and its update of 23 July 2015.
On this basis, the following system operators (external certification offices) have so far been recognised by the Federal Building Ministry, who offer an examination of the verification documents and certification according to BNB for construction projects:
