Which statement best describes the Project Administrator in LEED Online?

• A. The project administrator is the owner of the project.
• B. The project administrator is the LEED reviewer.
• C. The project administrator is automatically assigned by GBCI with basic duties.
• D. The person automatically assigned by GBCI to the project registrant; responsibilities include inviting team members, assigning credits, submitting review, and accepting reviewer feedback.

Answer: (D)

In LEED Online, the Project Administrator is the person automatically assigned by GBCI to the project registrant who acts as the central coordinator for the project’s online management. This role is responsible for inviting team members to join the project, assigning specific credits to those team members, submitting the project for review, and then handling the feedback from reviewers by accepting it or addressing it in a resubmission. This set of duties makes the Project Administrator the main point of control for coordinating LEED Online activities and interactions with the review process.

It’s not simply the project owner by default, and it isn’t the LEED reviewer. The administrator’s duties extend beyond basic access; they encompass organizing the team, managing credit assignments, and interfacing with the review workflow.
