Join us for breakfast and an engaging session on Carbon Reporting in Construction with John Hyde, Director of Sustainability at Chapman Construction!


Carbon reporting is becoming a standard part of construction. Owners are setting carbon goals, cities are requesting operational and embodied carbon data, and reporting requirements are extending deeper into the supply chain.


What does this mean for owners, architects, and contractors?


THIS SESSION EXPLORES:


  • What contractors can realistically track today, and what's still difficult to collect
  • How owners and architects can build data collection into project requirements, drawings, and specifications
  • Fuel, temporary power, waste, materials, EPDs, construction-stage emissions, and circularity
  • How Chapman collects corporate and project-level data to support client reporting
  • The importance of early collaboration from all project stakeholders


LEARNING OBJECTIVE:

Understand how corporate and project-level carbon data connect, what contractors can provide today, and how owners and design teams can set up projects to get better data during construction.

MEET THE SPEAKER

John Hyde, began working in the construction industry over twenty years ago, starting out in New York and eventually moving to Massachusetts in 2001. He spent his first ten years at Chapman working in construction management in various capacities. John transitioned to focus solely on sustainability, high-performance building, and decarbonization in 2022. He was charged with reinvigorating and expanding Chapman’s sustainability efforts as the company announced its commitment to carbon neutrality with no offsets by 2030.



In his role, John leverages his passion and expertise in sustainability to drive our carbon neutrality efforts and serve as a key resource for integrating sustainability into our construction projects. He also leads our internal sustainability group, advancing corporate sustainability initiatives and supporting engagement with sustainability-focused partners. Additionally, John manages Chapman’s participation in the Contractor’s Commitment to Sustainability program.
