Successful Passivhaus delivery requires specialized procurement approaches, contract structures, and risk management strategies that differ from conventional construction. This includes specific contract clauses, scope of works documentation, and contracting methodologies that account for the technical requirements and performance standards inherent in Passivhaus projects, whether for new construction or retrofit work.
