Once performance verification is complete, it is generally the responsibility of the performance testing agent to upload the associated documentation to the project’s WELL account. 

• General Instructions

  • Acceptable file types include .doc/.docx, .pdf, most standard image formats (.jpg, .jpeg, .png, etc.), or .xls/.xslx.

  • .zip files are allowed for v2 pilot and v2 projects for the "Performance Test" and "On-site photograph" document types only

    • The maximum zip file size accepted by the platform is 500MB. If the total package exceeds this, it must be split into multiple zip files.

  • Upload speed is generally determined by your connection speed. Check the progress bar at the top of the window to confirm things are still progressing. For a smoother experience, split into smaller files sizes.

  Performance Test

  • If you choose to use zip files, submit one zip file per concept. 

  • Tag each zip file to each of the feature parts within the concept pursued by the location (e.g., for air, A01.1, A01.2, etc.).

  • Include equipment calibration certificates, field photos of equipment setup, raw performance test data, and a completed Performance Testing Submittal sheet.

  • Example subfolder structure:

  

  On-site photograph

  • Photo quality can be compressed - the images just need to be clearly legible on screen. 

  • From the Scorecard: Select On-Site Photograph as the verification method.

  • From the Documents Library: Select Feature > On-Site Photograph as the verification method when you upload, then tag the document to the relevant features as shown below.

  • Photos of equipment setup and data readings should be submitted together with the corresponding performance test data–see Performance Test section above.

  Follow these steps to upload documentation:

  • 1. Open the project’s WELL account and go to the Documents tab.

    2. Click the ‘Upload document’ button.

    3. Select the document type (e.g. ‘Performance Test’ or ‘Feature’)

       • If the document type is Feature, choose the Verification Method (e.g. ‘Sensor Data’ or ‘On-Site Photographs’)

    4. Choose the applicable feature part(s). You may select multiple feature parts–choose all of the ones that the document applies to.

    5. Click ‘Upload a file’ or drag and drop a file from your computer into the window.

    6. Click the ‘Upload’ button.

  • 1. Open the project’s WELL account and go to the Documents tab.
    2. Find the feature for which you want to upload documentation.
       • Tip: you may find it helpful to use the Filter button at the top of your screen to filter by verification method (e.g., show all features verified by On-site Photograph, Performance Test or Sensor Data)
    3. In the Next Steps section within the feature, click the + icon next to Documents.
    4. Choose the verification method.
    5. Click ‘Upload a file’ or drag and drop a file from your computer into the window.
    6. Click the ‘Submit’ button.

• General instructions

  • The maximum zip file size accepted by the platform is 500MB. If the total package exceeds this, it must be split into multiple zip files.
  • Zip file submittals can be uploaded at either account level: the individual project or the organization’s WELLP / WELL at scale account. Where addenda are different between the single asset and the portfolio scorecard, pay special attention to ensure you are submitting under the account which reflects the addenda version/requirements for that location. 
  • Each file upload can be assigned to only one single verification method. Further, audited files (like photographs) cannot be tagged to multiple parts.
  • Tagging requires knowledge of the Feature Part, Space Type and Option. It can be helpful to have these listed before beginning the file upload process.
  • Upload speed is generally determined by your connection speed. Check the progress bar at the top of the window to confirm things are still progressing. For a smoother experience, split into smaller files sizes.

  Performance Test

  • Submit one zip file per concept. 
  • Tag each zip file to each of the feature parts within the concept pursued by the location (e.g., for air, A01.1, A01.2, etc.).
  • Include equipment calibration certificates, field photos of equipment setup, raw performance test data, and a completed Project information and performance template (PIP) sheet.
  • Example subfolder structure:

  On-site photographs

  • Photographs must be zipped and submitted per feature part (e.g., one zip file for N02.1 and a separate zip file for N02.2) for all parts where that location has been audited. 
  • On-site photographs are an auditable verification method - you cannot assign them to multiple feature parts. Each needs to be uploaded to the specific feature part, and will only be accepted by the platform at the location selected for audit. 
  • Photo quality can be compressed - the images just need to be clearly legible on screen. 
  • Strategies verified by onsite photograph (such as spot checks) should be zipped and uploaded in the relevant feature parts.
  • Photos of equipment setup and data readings should be submitted together with the corresponding performance test data–see Performance Test section above.
  • When subscribed to WELL at scale, either the Performance Testing Organization or project team may submit photographs.

  Select on-site photograph as the verification method when you upload (Upload audit document > on-site photograph if uploading from the Documents Library).
