Mr. Woods served tirelessly in the industry as a volunteer board member with BPI and ACI. He was also the first Canadian to become a BPI Affiliate and brought the organization to the table with the Canadian Government. A mentor to many, he was constantly involved in training weatherization organizations and home performance contractors across North America.

On April 28, 2009, BPI announced the inaugural winner of The Tony Woods Award for Excellence in Advancing the Home Performance Industry, a new initiative from BPI replacing the former BPI Awards or "Bippies" in honor of Mr. Woods. On the same day, ACI awarded Mr. Woods its Lifetime Achievement Award.
