I'm working on a project at a Campus where an existing DES is being retro-commissioned. The DES will serve a new LEED building that is attempting to attain EA c3 (Enhanced Cx). The DES and the new LEED building are being commissioned by separate 3rd parties. By reading the Guidance Document provided by LEED, it is understood that the DES shall be commissioned in accordance with LEED EB: O&M, EA Credit 2.2. My question is with respect to the LEED submittals. What documents exactly is LEED looking for as proof that the DES was retro-commissioned? I'm assuming this documentation can be uploaded as supplemental information to EA c3.

First, this would be a good question to send to the review team through the contact email. In my opinion, uploading the RCx report would be the minimum, and perhaps some letter or memo from the owner on intended actions coming out of it. Only my opinion however.

Thank you for the reply Scott. Tentative plan is to submit the RCx Report along with a list of implemented Low-Cost/No-Cost measures, Training Program, and Capital Plan. Soon we'll see how LEED reviewers respond.
