    Mostadam is Saudi Arabia's green building rating system developed by Sustainable Building to promote sustainability in residential buildings. It addresses energy and water conservation, waste management, and reducing construction impacts. There are five rating levels (Green, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond) based on achieving credit points. For existing buildings to receive an operations and maintenance rating, performance must be monitored over a year with minimum occupancy and parameters like energy/water use and waste generation recorded monthly. Policies and procedures must also be developed and implemented for at least six months. The document outlines roles and responsibilities for certification and emphasizes developing policies to manage sustainable building operations and maintenance long-term.

    Mostadam Green Building Rating System is the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia’s

    own building system.

    Sustainability
    Requirements
    Introduction
    Introduction
    Mostadam has been developed by
    Sustainable Building as a comprehensive
    sustainability rating and certification
    system to address the long-term
    sustainability of residential buildings in
    the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA).
    Mostadam addresses a wide range of
    sustainability issues important to KSA
    and supports the aspirations of Vision
    2030.
    THE BENEFITS OF
    MOSTADAM
    Mostadam specifically works to promote energy and
    water conservation, improve waste management, and
    reduce the environmental impact of construction
    practices.
    Rating levels
    A project’s score is the sum of all the
    credit points achieved. There are five
    different rating levels:
    Green, Bronze, Silver, Gold and Diamond.
    The number of credits points required for
    each rating level is
    shown in Table
    Implementing
    Mostadam for
    Residential Buildings
    Monitoring Period
    For an existing building to be eligible for a Mostadam O+E rating, its performance
    must be monitored
    over a minimum period of one year at a minimum occupancy of 75%. The following
    parameters, which
    link to Keystone credits, are required to be checked and recorded each month
    during the performance
    Monitoring Period:
    • Energy consumption
    • Water consumption
    • Waste generation
    During the first six months of the Monitoring Period, procedures and policies must
    be developed for
    certain keystone credits and optional credits as listed in Table 3. The procedures
    and policies must then
    be implemented for a minimum of six months and evidence of their
    implementation provided as part of
    the submission. If a building is undergoing renovation, refurbishment and/or
    extension works, this must
    be completed before the start of the Monitoring Period. The contents of a typical

    process are defined
    Policies, Management and Maintenance
    Policies, Management and
    Maintenance

    Policies, Management and Maintenance emphasizes the development and


    implementation of policies and procedures to manage and maintain the sustainable
    operation of buildings. It encourages sustainable procurement and sustainable
    maintenance and requires the implementation of an annual audit.
    Policies, Management and Maintenance also address operational waste
    management. The average per capita waste generation rate in KSA is 1.5 to 1.8kg
    per day. With a total population of 29 million, this amounts to approximately 15
    million tons of solid waste per year Vision 2030 aims to overcome the challenge of
    escalated waste production rates through efficient waste management systems
    through two major initiatives: the National Transformation Program (NTP) and the
    Integrated Waste Management Plan. Mostadam supports this Vision and rewards
    projects based on building performance and ongoing waste management.
    Residential Building Project Aiming To Achieve Mostadam Saudia Certification
    The Contractor shall design and construct the residential building
    located at Riyadh by the sustainability requirements of Mostadam
    Saudia to achieve a minimum Mostadam rating of [insert desired
    rating level]. This includes, but is not limited to, the following:
    Energy Efficiency: The Contractor shall design and implement
    energy-efficient building systems, including lighting, HVAC, and
    appliances, to reduce energy consumption.
    Water Efficiency: The Contractor shall incorporate water-efficient
    fixtures and landscaping practices to minimize water usage and
    promote water conservation.
    Materials and Resources: The Contractor shall use sustainable and
    locally sourced materials, as well as minimize waste generation and
    promote recycling and reuse of materials.
    Indoor Environmental Quality: The Contractor shall prioritize
    indoor air quality by using low-emission materials and providing
    adequate ventilation.
    Site Development: The Contractor shall employ sustainable site
    development practices to minimize site disturbance, manage
    stormwater runoff, and preserve natural habitats.
    The Contractor shall provide documentation and evidence of
    compliance with the Mostadam Saudia rating system throughout the
    design and construction phases. Failure to meet the minimum
    Mostadam rating specified shall result in penalties as outlined in the
    contract."
