'''BuildingSync''' is an initiative by the Building Technologies Office (BTO) that offers an XML schema for standardizing the way building energy performance data, particularly from audits and retrofits, is documented and shared. By facilitating interoperability among various software platforms, BuildingSync aims to improve the efficiency of energy efficiency programs, support better decision-making, and promote the adoption of energy-saving measures.<ref>{{cite web |url=https://buildingsync.net |title=BuildingSync |accessdate=January 30, 2025}}</ref>
