I'm interested in finding a checklist that includes a list of possible documentation needed to provide an accurate cost estimate for an energy model. I have my own list, but was curious if there was one that is publicly available from an organization such as IBPSA or COMNET.
There are a couple versions floating around of the Federal Energy Management Program "Procuring Architectural and Engineering Services for Energy Efficiency and Sustainability: A Resource Guide for Federal Construction Project Managers."

Some of the items called out by Anna are covered, albeit, a bit more generically. It has helped me communicate the overall meaning and value of energy modeling myself.
There is also a very good lessons learned pertaining to this topic on an old eQuest-Users List serve post (link)
Hope this helps some.
I don't know of an official list from a building performance organization, but below are some items I would include. I know this isn't exactly what you were looking for, but hopefully it helps a little:
There are a lot of things to consider and it varies significantly from project to project, of course, but I think this is a starting point. I'm sure there are items I have missed.

@anchapin I am not sure if you are looking for the data you need to collect to create an accurate energy model or if you are asking for details about a project that are needed to give a customer an estimated cost to develop an energy model?
