The information becomes part of NIBS\u2019 annual report to the White House and congress.<\/p>\n<p>Last year marked the first time the council sought input from outside members, which includes industry stakeholders such as individual professionals, corporations, professional groups, trade associations, and advocacy groups. After a large response, the council decided to do it again for 2015 to capture the industry\u2019s highest priorities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe building industry is under increasing pressure to deliver high-performance buildings that realize goals established by policymakers, building owners, and occupants,\u201d said Ryan Colker, director of the Consultative Council and presidential advisor. \u201cIn order to achieve these goals, professionals responsible for the design, construction, and operating of buildings need supportive tools, policies, and practices. The Consultative Council report identifies these needs and offers recommendations to policymakers and the building industry at large as to how to implement them. Getting feedback and recommendations from practitioners who must respond to these pressures every day is essential.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Input can focus on issues or recommendations to the building industry in general, or in a specific area.
