Go/No-Go Decision Point

Go/No-Go Decision Point

DOE INSTRUCTIONS

Each Phase will serve as a go/no-go decision point, where project applications may be submitted for the start of Phase 1 or the start of Phase 3. At each subsequent phase, the State will be required to submit documentation demonstrating that the conditions of the corresponding go/no-go decision point have been met.

1.2: Go/No-Go Decision Points

Architecture 2030 Template Language & Guidance

The first go/no go decision will come when Appendix CC is adopted. Should adoption be stalled or abandoned, then subsequent steps would obviously be abandoned.

Adoption is expected to include an implementation date, often six months to a year after adoption. Immediately following adoption but before the implementation date:

  1. Training materials would be developed.
  2. The website would be developed and deployed.
  3. Staff would be trained and if necessary additional staff would be hired. In some cases, an outside contractor would be hired in lieu of adding staff.

Training programs would be offered to the building community after the previous steps but before the implementation date. Training opportunities would continue after the implementation date.

On the implementation date, all new buildings would be required to comply with Appendix CC. Monitoring of compliance would begin. [Full compliance can’t be assessed until the buildings are completed and operational, one to three years after the implementation date.]
