Hello! This is Katie, a communications contact at HOK. My financial conflict of interest has been disclosed on my user page. I'll include a reminder of my conflict of interest in future posts, too.
In 2022, the firm launched a regenerative design studio, which provides regenerative design strategies to all types of projects. The design solutions are based on ecosystem performance metrics related to water, air, carbon, soil, biodiversity, health and well-being. [1]
HOK is also participating in the AIA 2030 Commitment, which challenges the design and construction sector to reach carbon neutrality for all new buildings, developments and major renovations by 2030. [2] The firm is also participating in the MEP 2040 and SE 2050 Commitments to reduce and eliminate embodied carbon in mechanical, electrical and plumbing building systems as well as structural engineering designs by 2040 and 2050, respectively. [3] [4]

Declined The references to these claims all originate in primary sources: the regenerative design studio claim referenced by HOK; the AIA claim referenced by AIA; the claims regarding SE 2050 referenced by SE2050.org. This is all a lot of self-referencing happening here. While the companies involved may act as sources for certain claims (who works there and for how long, to name a few examples) other claims about their projects or their participatory endeavors ought to be referenced by secondary sources in order to refute any appearance of promoting these endeavors.

It is never an acceptable source for claims that evaluate or analyze the company or its actions. Jeraxmoira🐉 ( talk) 10:33, 27 May 2024 (UTC)
It is never an acceptable source for claims that evaluate or analyze the company or its actions." Quite right too.
"Primary" does not mean "bad". Just because something is from the mouth of a subject does not mean it's unreliable.- I never mentioned that the source is unreliable.

Hello! This is Katie, a communications contact at HOK. My financial conflict of interest has been disclosed on my user page. I'll include a reminder of my conflict of interest in future posts, too.
As of June 2024, HOK operates 26 offices [1] across North America, Europe and Asia, including in Hong Kong, Beijing and Shanghai in China; Dubai in the Middle East; Mumbai, India; and Toronto, Canada, where it established its first offices in 1997 with the acquisition of Urbana Architects.[11][12][13][14][15][16]
I have added the new citation referencing our 26 offices above, swapping out the previous Austin Business Journal article behind a paywall with the new article on the American Institute of Architects website by writer and architecture critic Wanda Lau. I have no changes to the other citations currently listed at the end of the paragraph (citations 11-16 in our article).
Thank you!

I’m aware that HOK (firm) has a flag at the top of the article regarding violating Wikipedia’s terms of use. I have been working to clean up the article through the COI edit request form with a goal to provide neutral, updated information on the firm. Have we remedied the neutral point of view concern to remove the flag from the article? I’m happy to make any other changes necessary. Thank you!
