PlanIT impact

PlanIT Impact is a cloud-based software-as-a-service company founded in 2014 that provides building performance analysis and sustainable design tools. Its platform integrates 3D visualization with open-source geospatial data to help architects, engineers, developers, and urban planners evaluate building designs early in the process. The software models key metrics such as energy and water usage, greenhouse gas emissions, stormwater infiltration, and transportation access. By offering a subscription-based cloud service, the company enables professionals to simulate different design scenarios, allowing for data-driven decisions that balance environmental performance with financial objectives like return on investment and total cost of ownership. The platform also features plugins for industry-standard software such as Autodesk Revit and SketchUp to support uninterrupted professional workflows.

The tool serves as a resource for real estate owners, developers, and municipal leaders aiming to reach sustainability goals or achieve green building certifications like LEED. By digitizing building strategy and portfolio assessment, PlanIT Impact helps customers identify cost-saving energy opportunities and allocate investments to reduce carbon footprints across entire building portfolios. The company, headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri, has been recognized for its role in transforming building industry decision-making, providing a collaborative interface that links site-specific environmental data with project-level design to foster a more sustainable and carbon-neutral built environment. Its solutions have been implemented in various urban development projects to bridge the gap between initial conceptual design and long-term sustainable operations.
