You may find that, in order to attain LEED-CS certification, you must require tenants to meet certain performance or prescriptive requirements, such as energy and ventilation requirements, installation of walk-off mats, or refrigerant charge specifications. You might want to include the required measures in the tenant guidelines and the lease agreement, along with suggested recommendations. Doing this is not required for complying with SSc9, but may be necessary for other credits where the requirements cannot be fulfilled with the core-and-shell project alone. It is important to clearly define in the guidelines what is required versus what is recommended. Discuss this piece early in the design process to allay the fears of owners who may be hesitant to require tenants to meet specific standards.
