Performance <br />Services <br />8. Project Management Approach <br />Minimizing Risk <br />Every construction project, whether it is a building, bridge, road, or solar array, requires a solid <br />engineering foundation. We invest a significant amount of engineering time analyzing various aspects of <br />each solar project to ensure that the desired objectives will be achieved, and risk will be mitigated. Our <br />methodology includes: <br />1. Analyzing utility rate structures and actual energy usage profiles to provide critical data for <br />design and cash flow analysis. <br />2. Identifying available incentives, net metering opportunities, and Solar Renewable Energy <br />Credits. <br />3. Surveying existing site conditions for locating ground -mount arrays and building structures <br />for roof -mounted arrays. <br />4. Utilizing advanced solar modeling software to provide the optimum design and provide the <br />most accurate projection of annual energy production. <br />5. Working directly with the customer's utility to ensure that all utility interconnect <br />requirements are met. <br />6. Preparing drawings and specifications for accurate cost estimating and systems installation. <br />7. Completing cash flow and payback calculations to provide accurate information for financial <br />analysis. <br />8. Providing technical assistance during the installation process including having our inhouse <br />engineers making periodic site visits to ensure the project is being installed as engineered. <br />9. Conducting final inspections to ensure compliance with the drawings and specifications. <br />10. Reviewing commissioning and measurement and verification reports to confirm energy <br />production results. <br />We will utilize this approach in developing all our solutions to include both building and solar offerings. <br />Installation and Schedule Development and Adherence <br />The expertise of our project managers (PMs) is a major strength of Performance Services.
