Here’s Exactly What Working With AJEC Looks Like
No surprises. No guesswork. Just a clear, proven process — from first call to final sign-off.
When you engage AJEC, you’re not just hiring a consultant — you’re adding an energy compliance team to your build. Here’s what that looks like in practice, step by step.
We Learn Your Project Inside Out
On your first call with Jack, we listen before we prescribe. We ask about your build type, timeline, target code path, and any previous compliance headaches. This isn’t a sales call — it’s the foundation of your compliance plan.
You Get a Dedicated Team, Not a Ticket Number
After your call, we assign your project a dedicated advisor. You’ll receive a welcome email with your project details, key contacts, and what we need from you to get started. We don’t disappear after the first conversation.
We Run the Numbers — Then We Optimize Them
Our advisors build your energy model and immediately look for value-engineering opportunities. If a cheaper wall assembly gets you the same result as an expensive one, we’ll tell you before you build — not after.
We’re With You Through the Build, Not Just Before It
Our team is available to answer RFI-style questions from your super or trades during construction. If something changes mid-build — a product swap, a design revision — we update the model so your compliance doesn’t slip.
We Handle the Blower Door — You Focus on Closing
When the home is ready for air tightness testing, we schedule and conduct the blower door test. We prepare you and your trades beforehand so there are no surprises on test day. Pass on the first try — that’s the goal, and it’s usually the result.
Clean Documentation, Ready for the Building Department
We deliver your final energy compliance report — formatted and ready for submission. No chasing, no missing pages, no last-minute scramble. Your file is complete the first time.
We Stay Current So You Don’t Have To
Energy codes change. New programs launch. Incentive thresholds shift. As an AJEC client, you’ll hear about the changes that affect your builds before they catch you off guard. We filter the noise — you get only what’s relevant to your work.
