01 · What you provide

2 weeks of collaboration with your team.

This isn't a drop-ship audit. We do it WITH your people, not FOR them. Here's what we'll need — and what it'll cost in team-time.

01

Motor lists + asset data

Nameplate data, HP, operating hours, sub-meter records for the major process areas. We work from what you have — no new instrumentation required.

~2 days of your team's time to compile. We help structure it.
02

Data access

Utility bills (12 months), interval meter data if available, SCADA/BMS exports for key processes. Read-only, NDA-protected, returned at the end.

~half a day of IT / plant engineer time.
03

Site visit

One day on-site. Guided walkthrough of major processes, sampling of key motors and loads, photos and field notes. Opnor engineer + one of your ops leads.

~1 day of your ops lead's time.
04

Joint meetings

Three meetings with your leadership: scoping kickoff, mid-point findings preview, final results + recommendations walk-through.

3 × 90-min sessions over the 2 weeks.
02 · What we deliver

An engineering-grade audit. Decision-ready.

Every deliverable is something you can hand to a board, a plant manager, or an implementation contractor. No open-ended consulting notes.

03 · How we compress

Same ISO-50002 scope. AI-accelerated analysis.

Traditional deep-dives spend 8–10 weeks on analysis work an AI can do in hours: utility-bill reconciliation, baseline regression, ECM library matching, report drafting. Field work and engineering judgement stay human.

Utility data ingest + cleaning5–7 days4 hours
Baseline regression modelling10–14 days1 day
ECM library matching2–3 weeks2 days
Report drafting2 weeks2 days
Field work + client meetings2 weeks2 weeks

The compression is entirely on Opnor's analysis side. Your team's involvement — the site visit, the data pull, the meetings — is the same as a traditional deep-dive. We just don't make you wait 10 weeks for the answer.

Every audit ships with the same core deliverables. What changes plant-to-plant is the ECM list, the capex figures, and the HQ-funding profile.

  • Executive summary with ranked ECM list
  • Baseline energy model and reconciliation
  • Per-ECM engineering write-up + AACE-class estimate
  • Hydro-Québec SEA application (pre-filled)
  • Implementation roadmap with phased priorities
  • All raw data and models — yours to keep
06 · Questions we get

The audit details, up front.

Is this really a full deep-dive or a short-form audit?
A full ISO-50002 Level-2 deep-dive. Same scope, same rigor, same engineering sign-off as the legacy 10-week version — just delivered faster because our analysis pipeline is AI-accelerated.
What if we don't qualify for Hydro-Québec SEA funding?
SEA covers the electrical portion for Quebec industrial customers above 500 kW. If you're outside that envelope (non-Quebec, or gas-dominant plants), we'll tell you during the free diagnostic and quote a non-funded price. Audit still delivers the same output.
How much of our team's time does this actually take?
Roughly 4 days total across 2 weeks: ~2 days to compile asset data, ~1 day for the on-site visit, and 3 × 90-min joint meetings. The 2 weeks is elapsed time, not your team's full-time effort.
Can you do the audit without a site visit?
No. We won't sign off on a deep-dive without walking the plant floor. If you need a remote-only analysis, that's the EMD (Energy Makeover Diagnostic) tier — smaller in scope.
What happens after the audit?
You get the ranked ECM list, capex + payback figures, and a phased implementation roadmap. Execution is separate — we can recommend contractors or handle it as a separate engagement. No lock-in.
Can you work with our existing utility bills and SCADA data, or do we need new instrumentation?
We work from what you have. 12 months of utility bills is the baseline. Interval data and SCADA/BMS exports sharpen the model but aren't required. If a specific ECM needs spot measurements, we flag it and handle short-term metering.
