Motion sensors seem to be a natural, low-cost localized lighting control for this credit except for this one line: "Demonstrate that the BAS is being used to inform decisions regarding changes in building operations and energy-saving investments". Not sure how it's possible for motion-sensor lights to fulfill this requirement.

Local motion sensors not integrated within the BAS would be exempt from the "demonstrate the BAS is being used to inform decisions regarding changes in building operations" requirement.
Minimum functions for the lighting control is to ensure they are scheduled off during unoccupied times.
