3. LEED-CI: LEED for Commercial Interiors (LEED-CI) is the much anticipated green benchmark for the tenant improvement market. LEED-CI gives the power to make sustainable choices to tenants and designers, who do not always have control over whole building operations. LEED-CI is the recognized standard for certifying high-performance green interiors that are healthy, productive places to work, are less costly to operate and maintain, and reduce their environmental footprint.
