The built environment contributes 40% of global carbon emissions, which presents both challenges and opportunities for the construction and property sectors. MBM helps clients translate big eco-conscious ambitions into practical, cost-effective outcomes that deliver value across the life of an asset.
Our team improves sustainability by partnering with clients to lay greener foundations and weave sustainable actions through every part of construction, operations, and maintenance. The firm commits to strengthen the resilience of Australia’s built environment through sustainable construction advice and environmentally focused service delivery.
Cost Experts in Green Building
Green buildings perform better for people, the planet, and the bottom line. The MBM Team guides clients through the cost decisions that turn sustainability ambitions into reality, including smart energy use, carbon reduction, and creating healthier spaces.
We evaluate low-carbon materials, model lifecycle impacts, and align choices with green building frameworks like NABERS, Green Star, and BREEAM. Our advice is grounded in real project benchmarks from years of commercially sustainable project experience, so clients can see the cost and carbon implications of each option with clarity.
MBM offers clients practical, cost-effective, and future-focused advice on environmentally sustainable design (ESD) and materials specification to embed long-term asset value and resilience. Our experts test design scenarios, model long-term outcomes, and give clear advice on how to balance upfront investment with ongoing value.
Climate-Conscious Partnerships
MBM partners with clients to embed climate-conscious strategies into the design and delivery of green buildings, without compromise to performance or cost. Our team assesses every decision for both cost and environmental impacts – from site orientation to façade performance, operational energy use, embodied carbon, and long-term resilience.
Since much of a building’s carbon footprint comes from supply chains, a major focus for MBM is procurement. Our experts offer clear, comparative advice on procurement strategies and guide clients to select suppliers who align with sustainability goals. MBM evaluate contractors, manufacturers, and service providers against cost and climate performance so decisions support low-carbon outcomes across the entire project lifecycle.
People, Planet, Prosperity
MBM weaves Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD) principles into every project to shape asset legacy and help shape healthier spaces. Our team integrates ESD into cost plans from the earliest concepts, offers data-driven advice on lifecycle investment, and showcases the benefits of low-carbon materials.
We guide clients to achieve Green Star credits, reduce carbon emissions, and strengthen local supply chains. Our experts help clients navigate sustainable materials selection, including responsibly sourced timber, low-VOC products, and materials manufactured locally or with recycled content. Through ESD, MBM helps create buildings that perform for people, protect the planet, and deliver lasting prosperity.
Data-driven Decision Making
MBM combines data-driven cost modelling with embodied carbon insights in feasibility studies and cost plans. Our team weighs up long-term durability, reusability, and lifecycle impacts to align our recommendations with clients’ operational sustainability goals and requirement.
MBM assesses the long-term environmental and financial implications of material choices, construction methods, and ESD initiatives.
