Who can perform the ASHRAE Level II audit? Can it be done by someone in-house?

My building is already very efficient and has an Energy Star score over 90. (Or, it's small and has passive systems.) How do I know if I’ve identified enough capital improvement measures? Is there a minimum requirement for improvement measures?

What are the requirements for on-going Measurement and Verification (M&V)? How can our project meet this requirement without a BAS or sub-metering?

Wanted some clarification on which(if any) credits/pre-requisites under the EBOM manual required an external engineer or commissioning agent to perform the tasks described.

Commissioning and/or energy auditing can be performed by anyone as allowed by the LEED EBOM reference guide. The owner may want to qualify the commissioning firm, however LEED will not require this. LEED for New Construction has requirements for who can and can't be the Commissioning Authority. Hope this helps!
