The projects which seek pre certification need to submit the following documentation:
1. Filled in Templates
2.Narratives and supporting documentation such as drawings, calculations (in excel sheets), declarations/ contract documents, purchase invoices, manufacturer cut sheets/ letters/ material test reports, etc., for each mandatory requirement/ credit.
Deming would take 30 working days to review the first set of precertification documents. On receiving the clarifications posed in the first review, Deming would take another 30 working days to award the precertification. A certificate and a letter are provided to projects on precertification.
Precertified projects are required to provide the status of the project to Deming, in relation to the rating, once in every six months until the award of the final rating. Pre-certification gives the owner/ developer a unique advantage to market the project to potential buyers.
Appeal
In rare cases, mandatory requirements/ credits get denied due to misinterpretation of the intent. On receipt of the final review and if the project team feels that sufficient grounds exist to appeal a credit denied in the final review, the project has an option to appeal to Deming for reassessment of denying mandatory requirements and/ or credits. The documentation of the mandatory requirements / credits seeking appeal may be resubmitted to Deming along with necessary fees. Deming will take 30 working days to review such documentation. If an appeal is pursued, please note that a different review team will be assessing the appeal documentation.
1. Filled-in Template for respective mandatory requirement/ credit.
2. Appeal submittal documentation for only those mandatory requirement/ credits that the project is appealing for. Also, include a narrative for each appealed mandatory requirement/ credit to describe how the documents address the reviewers` comments and concerns.
