Report Follow-up
About six months following the assessment, the
manufacturer is contacted with survey questions by phone and/or
e-mail to determine the extent to which the recommendations have
been implemented. Any recommendation which the plant intends to
make within two years following the asessment final report date
are considered. IAC staff will ask quesions to understand how well
the content of the report has matched the actual on-site implementation,
especially in relation to timeliness, overall costs, and payback
period. Any use of the recommendations by sister plants or other
business contacts will be noted for their benefits to overall energy
savings. Most of the information is easily presented via an Excel
file table which may be readily e-mailed to and from the plant.
Past assessment follow-up surveys indicate that
about 50% of all recommendations
are implemented successfully at the plants visited by the CSU IAC
teams.
