The purpose of this acquisition is to obtain support from EEF to build a coalition of major players in the building design/construction and property management industry, with a focus on    major insurance and financial institutions, to gain acceptance of certain EPA indoor environmental quality guidance, and to use this guidance as the basis for managing indoor environmental quality risks.    Under this Purchase Order, EEF shall develop a program to work cooperatively with insurance    carriers and brokers to train building clients on management of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) using EPA's IAQ Building Education and Assessment Model (I-BEAM) guidelines.    EEF shall evaluate and promote EPA's training module on IAQ and Energy Efficiency and Green Building Guidance. EEF is uniquely    qualified to satisfy this requirement because of its ability to provide an active training program for building professionals and its specific working relationships with the building insurance industry and lending groups through environmental risk programs. It has been determined that because of    the ability of EEF to access an established advisory committee consisting of high-ranking building professionals from established companies representing insurance, financial, design, construction, property management and related fields, it is the only known non-profit organization qualified to    satisfy this requirement In addition, EEF is unique in its acceptance by insurance and financial industries for its current IAQ guidelines.
