What is the total project cost?

For capital projects, total project costs are the hard and soft costs directly contributing to completion of the capital project. If the project being proposed is an infrastructure investment directly serving a planned economic development project (e.g., a road to a new tech park, water treatment for a new manufacturing facility), please use the total cost of the project that the infrastructure is designed to serve.

For non-capital projects, total project costs are the hard and soft costs incurred for the specific project period.

$
What amount of total project costs, if any, will be paid for with private investment?

Private investment includes loans, grants, developer contributions, other private equity, and in-kind contributions from non-public sources. If this application is for private funds, include the requested amount in this figure (e.g., if this request equals $100,000 and $400,000 of other private funding is being contributed, then the total private investment figure that you should enter in the Tool is $500,000). If the project funding includes tax credit financing (e.g. New Markets Tax Credit, Historic Tax Credit, Low Income Housing Tax Credit) the dollar amount of the funding request should be included here as part of the private investment share of total project costs. For example, if the project will receive $200,000 of tax credit financing from a Certified Development Entity (CDE) the $200,000 is included here. If there is no private investment, enter "0."

$
What amount of total project costs, if any, will be paid for with public investment?

Public investment includes local, regional, state, and/or federal contributions to hard and/or soft project costs, excluding tax incentives. If this application is for public resources, include the requested amount in this figure (e.g., if this request equals $100,000 and $400,000 of other public funding is being contributed, then the total public investment figure that you should enter in the Tool is $500,000). If there is no public investment, enter "0."

$
What amount of funding are you requesting from this organization/investor?

Enter the amount of investment (e.g., loan, equity, grant) that is being requested. If no funding is being requested (e.g., review or approval by a planning agency), enter "0."

Industry, Jobs & Wages

This section provides information about the sector(s) and jobs that are part of this project. The first set of questions pertains to direct jobs created and/or retained.

Using the pull down menus below, please select the industry or industries that are a part of this project. You can enter information for up to 5 sectors (industries). If your project includes more than 5 industries, please select the top 5 by number of direct jobs created or retained. If this is an infrastructure investment directly serving an economic development project (e.g., road to tech park, water treatment for manufacturing facility) please enter the industry or industries and jobs for the project that the infrastructure is designed to serve.

NAICS code information can be found at http://www.census.gov/cgi-bin/sssd/naics/naicsrch?chart=2012.

For each project industry identified, enter the number of direct jobs created and/or retained when the project is complete. This figure includes part-time and seasonal employees. Enter jobs as FTE (full-time equivalents), which is based on a 40 hour per week workload (2080 hours per year). An employee working 20 hours per week is considered .50 FTE, while two employees each working 20 hours per week equal 1.0 FTE. If your project includes more than five industries please note that in our feedback survey so we can consider adjustments to future upgrades to the tool. Do not include construction jobs, as those are counted elsewhere.

Direct (non-construction) jobs

	Industry Name	Sub Industry	# of FTE direct jobs created and/or retained

Will the number of jobs created or retained distinguish this project as a major employer in the area or have a particularly catalytic impact on employment in the area? An example of a catalytic project is an arts center that does not create a lot of direct jobs but is a destination of renown that greatly supports the creation of jobs in tourism and arts related businesses. Another example might be a small technical center that provides critical assistance to farmers throughout the region.

TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE REPORT FOR:

Legend	Definition
76-100	Project appears to be strongly aligned with TBL goals.
51-75	Project appears to be moderately aligned with TBL goals.
26-50	Project appears to be weakly aligned with TBL goals.
0-25	Project appears to be poorly aligned with TBL goals.

Note: The following is a report of project information entered to date. TBL scores are generated when all project information has been entered.

The following summary report provides scores for each of the three Triple Bottom Line goals and their performance areas. When applying these results, keep in mind that the TBL Tool is most useful for identifying potential strengths and weaknesses of a project and exploring areas for improvement. Scores provide a general indication of how well a project is configured for TBL performance. It is important to consider the details behind a score; for example, two projects with the same score may differ in the type or magnitude of impact. Detailed scores and project information are provided in the full project report; items warranting further attention are listed in the due diligence report. Additional information about measures and scoring can be found in the TBL Tool User's Guide.

TBL SCORES AND PROJECT INFORMATION:

The following project report provides scores for each of the three Triple Bottom Line goals, as well as performance areas and measures. Project information is provided along with scores. The "Due Diligence" report provides a list of items that have been identified as completed, due to be completed, or warranting further attention. A legend is provided to help interpret the scores.

The score for each TBL goal (economic vitality, natural resource stewardship, community well-being) is computed by taking the average of its performance area scores, and each performance area score is computed by taking the average of its measure scores. All scores are based on a scale of 0 - 100, indicating the degree of alignment or accomplishment. The tool does not explicitly weight measures; however, implicit weighting occurs because the relative weight of each measure varies depending upon how many measures are grouped in a performance area (e.g., a measure carries more "weight" if a performance area score is the average of three measures rather than ten measures).

When applying these results, keep in mind that the TBL Tool is most useful for identifying potential strengths and weaknesses of a project and exploring areas for improvement. Scores provide a general indication of how well a project is configured for triple bottom line performance. It is important to consider the details behind a score; for example, two projects with the same score may differ in the type or magnitude of impact. Further, users may wish to look more deeply at measures that are particularly important to their community or context. Additional information about measures and scoring can be found in the TBL Tool User's Guide.

DUE DILIGENCE ITEMS:

The following items were identified as complete, due to be completed, or warranting further attention. We recommend that due diligence be exercised by reviewing documentation of claims and by exploring items warranting confirmation or further attention. Items are listed in the order they appear on the TBL Tool scoring report. The areas marked "Note" display the measure comments entered by the user.

Check boxes are provided to assist you with tracking your review of due diligence items. Check boxes can be completed on line and will be saved.

Additional information about measures and scoring, including data sources, can be found in the TBL Tool User's Guide.
