Abstract
Several segments are included in the analysis stage of the SEE Framework. The first segment focuses on the external assessment, which consists of analyzing utility use and billings, making a financial assessment, and constructing a comparison to other organizations. This chapter describes that process, provides several online analysis tools, and highlights the types of information that should be collected.
