## Composition of the evaluation team for a Bilan Carbone®
The organisation is responsible for contacting an evaluator, who acts alone or forms an evaluation team. The list of trained and certified evaluators is available in the[directory](/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/appendices/bibliography.md#labc-et-les-ressources-complementaires-au-bilan-carbone-r) of ABC.
The entire evaluation team is trained in the Bilan Carbone® method and all its members must belong to organisations affiliated to ABC. It is led by an evaluation project lead who is, in addition, [trained and certified](/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/appendices/bibliography.md#guide-devaluation-des-bilans-ges) for the evaluation of assessments. \
In addition, if the organisation wishes to obtain its evaluation attestation with **limited assurance,** it may request the participation of a chartered accountant in the assessment evaluation assignment.
It is important to respect the concepts **of impartiality** and **independence** of the people involved in the evaluation of assessments with regard to those who carried out those assessments. ABC must be informed of any conflict of interest for the evaluation of a Bilan Carbone®.
More information on the Bilan Carbone® evaluation team and the notion of impartiality can be found in the [guide for the evaluation of a Bilan Carbone®](/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/appendices/bibliography.md#labc-et-les-ressources-complementaires-au-bilan-carbone-r).
## Prepare the supporting documents for the evaluation
Section 6.1 details the [Bilan Carbone® deliverables](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/7-evaluation-and-quality-of-bilan-carbone-r/pages/b670d8431a525819eeaf85450dda1f986c72f46c#id-1.-restitution-et-livrables-bilan-carbone-r), and the [supporting documents](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/7-evaluation-and-quality-of-bilan-carbone-r/pages/b670d8431a525819eeaf85450dda1f986c72f46c#id-3.-restitution-volontaire-pour-levaluation) required for the evaluation.
Among these deliverables is the **self assessment report** completed by the organisation prior to the evaluation. This is done by following the instructions of the [guide for the evaluation of a Bilan Carbone®](/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/appendices/bibliography.md#labc-et-les-ressources-complementaires-au-bilan-carbone-r) and by completing the blank report found in the annex. This will notably allow to:
* Better know what to expect in the case of a first evaluation
* Properly prepare all evidence or additional documents required for the evaluation
* Correct any possible error preventing the assessment from being verified and validated
In addition, **certain supporting documents remain valid for several years** and carrying out a Bilan Carbone® approach on a regular basis (in particular for high maturity levels) should not force the organisation to systematically repeat reflections whose conclusions remain relevant. The evaluator therefore has a validity range for certain deliverables:
* [Deliverables No. 16 to 19](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/7-evaluation-and-quality-of-bilan-carbone-r/pages/b670d8431a525819eeaf85450dda1f986c72f46c#id-1.-restitution-et-livrables-bilan-carbone-r) : The action plan and their quantifications, the objectives of the transition plan as well as its trajectory, remain valid for a period of **2 years**. However, it is necessary to keep the monitoring of the transition plan up to date;
* [Deliverable No. 9](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/7-evaluation-and-quality-of-bilan-carbone-r/pages/b670d8431a525819eeaf85450dda1f986c72f46c#id-1.-restitution-et-livrables-bilan-carbone-r) for an Advanced level: The risk analysis remains valid for a period of **10 years** ;
* [Deliverable No. 10](https://www.bilancarbone-methode.com/methode-bilan-carbone-r-en/7-evaluation-and-quality-of-bilan-carbone-r/pages/b670d8431a525819eeaf85450dda1f986c72f46c#id-1.-restitution-et-livrables-bilan-carbone-r) : The whole Stakeholder engagement approach and the actions carried out remain valid for a period of **2 years** ;
