Data source(s) and notes about the submission:

A first hurdle in certifying all of our buildings through LEED EBOM is submetering them, with a high quality meter that ties into the building automation system. Having a dedicated meter for the building is necessary to use Energy Portfolio Manager. West Campus is currently submetered and we are working toward that goal on other campuses.
