Commissioning (Cx):
Is the process of ensuring that the systems are designed, installed, functionally tested & capable of being operated and maintained to perform in conformity with the design intent.  Commissioning begins with the planning and includes design, construction, start-up, acceptance & training, and can be applied throughout the life of the building. 

Commissioning Goal:
• Systems designed to meet intent
• Systems Installed to meet design
• Functional, Reliable & Efficient Systems

Commissioning Capabilities:
• Mechanical HVAC Systems
• Mechanical & Process Control Systems
• Mechanical Process Systems
• Electrical Equipment
• Fire, Life Safety & Leak Detection
• IP & Network Systems

Our Commissioning Activities Check List exceeds most published standards. Please review our check below.

Owner's Requirements. 
Understand the owner's requirements & performance criteria.

Commissioning Plan.
Generate a commissioning plan.  The commissioning will start at the planning phase and continue through end of construction.  Ideally the commissioning plan will include the following tasks:

1. Basis of Design Review. 
Review & comment on the design intent & verify that it meets the  owner's requirements and criteria.

2. Design Review. 
Work with the design team to qualify the design compliance with the Basis of Design.

3. Bid Documents. 
Integrate commissioning requirements into the construction bid documents. It will include update of both the electrical &  mechanical specifications.

4. Site Observation Reports. 
Generate site observation reports during construction.  The reports will address and installation deficiencies and deviation from design intent.   

5. Functional Performance Test Procedures and Checklists. 
Develop functional performance test procedures and verification check lists.   

6. Supervise Functional Tests & Analyze Results. 
Analyze & understand test results.  Verify that the system operates per the criteria designed for. 

7. Commissioning Report. 
Compile a commissioning report identifying the systems commissioned, results of site observation reports, functional test results & startup check lists.

8. Training. 
Identify training criteria, and organize training for the appropriate personnel.

9. Documentation Turnover Review. 
Review all operation & maintenance manuals & 'as-built' for accuracy & completeness.

10. Recommissioning Management Manual. 
Develop a recommissioning manual to include: recommended recalibration frequency of sensors & equipments, guidelines for establishing and tracking benchmarks for systems performance.
