• Wisconsin Historical Society AHI Database
Homeowners and Business Owners can check the statewide inventory database to confirm if their property is listed as a Historic Preservation Site.
• Job Hours Reporting Link
Contractors are required to report all hours worked on each project within 10 business days of completing the project through this portal. For commercial projects where Davis Bacon wages are required to be paid, contractors would report the hours worked on weekly certified payroll reports rather than using the Job Hours Reporting platform (see Form WH-347 Certified Payroll Report).

Commercial Project Energy Savings Calculators
Me² participating Contractors and Consultants are required to meet program criteria. Please note that the Me² program (including WECC and the City of Milwaukee) does not endorse or guarantee the work or services of any particular Consultant or Contractor, but maintains a directory of Consultants and Contractors who have applied and been authorized to participate in the program. Participating Consultants are independent Consultants who have been accredited and certified by the Building Performance Institution. Participating Contractors are independent Contractors who have agreed to specified program requirements. While a list of participating Consultants and Contractors have been screened and qualified to the best of our ability, you will be entering into direct relationships with the Consultant or Contractor of your choice and it is important that you review their credentials, qualifications, and references to make an informed decision. Consultants and Contractors who participate in the program warrant their own work and may charge different fees for services. It is generally good practice to contact several Contractors before selecting one. (Please see the full program disclaimer on the directory of Consultants and Contractors.)
