Summer Facility Tour at Vertex: Sustainability in Building Operation and Maintenance
Join us at Vertex Pharmaceuticals Global Headquarters located at 50 Northern Avenue for presentations and a site tour. Vertex will tell their story about how they have incorporated sustainability into building operation and maintenance. Soon after Vertex moved into their LEED Gold Fan Pier buildings in 2014, their Operations Department began a multi-year mission of fine tuning the buildings to further optimize them for energy efficiency, and waste minimization. These efforts are being captured as part of the Mayor of Boston’s “Carbon Cup” which Vertex entered in 2015. Members of Vertex’s Operations team will provide us with an overview of these projects and the cumulative impact that these efforts have made on reducing waste, cost and greenhouse gas emissions.
