This is for a 1st time EBOM project (not recertification).
If Six Sigma Projects were initiated 5 years prior to LEED registration but implemented every year thereafter until the present time:
1) Will LEED allow the projects to be part of the submittals for EAc2.1, 2.1 and 2.3?
or
2) Just the projects within 2 years before end of performance period?
We are considering going the on-going commissioning route instead of ASHRAE Level II Audit which is limited to EAc2.1 and 2.2.

I think you will need to document projects conducted during the Performance Period.

Hi Tristan,
Just for clarification, do you mean that we can include the Six Sigma projects that were executed during the performance period, or that the commissioning - investigation (EAc2.1) should be initiated during the performance period?
Hope to hear from you.
thanks,
Pabs

...just to add, full implementation of the Six Sigma program runs up to 2011, and began in 2006 since the building is occupied and minimum disturbance to occupants is a consideration. Projects were sequential upgrades of aircon equipment from chillers, to ahu's, to fans, to maintenance improvements and monitoring equipment, as well as another system upgrade due this year.
