Applications Due Friday, December 11, 2026

The Building Performance Institute, Inc. (BPI) invites people to apply for its Standards Technical Committees (STCs). STC members help develop and maintain home performance standards. They bring different skills and views to the process. BPI follows standards development procedures accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

Why Join an STC?

• Share your expertise to help standards meet real-world needs
• Work with other home performance professionals
• Support a fair, balanced process that considers different views
• Help create standards that people can use in the field

BPI welcomes applicants from all three interest categories. BPI reviews each application to help keep committee membership balanced.

BPI Interest Categories

Each STC member belongs to one of three interest categories. These categories help prevent any one group from holding a majority of committee seats. BPI defines the categories as follows:

• Industry: A member who is involved with researching, designing, producing, distributing, or selling materials or products related to the body of standards.
• User: A member who purchases, uses, installs, or specifies materials, products, systems, or services related to the body of standards.
• General Interest: General Interest members are neither Industry nor User members. This category may include programs, utilities, government, health/safety professionals, other organizations, or associations.
