What is LEED Online used for?

• A. A building management system for facilities operations.
• B. A platform for financial accounting of LEED projects.
• C. A smartphone app for field inspections.
• D. Web-based tool where the project team can manage the LEED certification process, including documentation, uploading required files, submitting applications for review, and receiving reviewer feedback.

Answer: (D)

LEED Online is the web-based platform used to manage the LEED certification workflow. It provides a centralized space for the project team to assemble and organize all required documentation, upload files, and submit the certification application for review. Once submitted, reviewers can add comments and requests for additional information, and the team can respond and resubmit within the same system. This streamlines tracking of submission status, ensures documentation is complete and organized, and maintains a clear history of communications throughout the certification process. It isn’t a building management system, a financial accounting tool, or a mobile field inspections app; its purpose is specifically to support the LEED certification process from documentation to reviewer feedback.
