Commissioning:
Commissioning is the process of achieving, verifying, and documenting the performance of a building system and its ability to meet the operational needs of the building.
The system must perform within the design capabilities, as well as meet the design documentation and Owner's functional criteria.
Once the system is commissioned, the building's system operation personnel receive an orientation of the system.
Existing System Analysis:
Existing system analysis consists of the review of the system controls functionality and equipment performance in accordance with the original design criteria.
Upon completion of the analysis, a documented report is issued to the Owner and operating personnel for review. This report enables an Owner to efficiently and effectively plan for the repair or enhancement of their system.
