Building
Commissioning
Commissioning is a quality
assurance process with documented confirmation that building systems
are planned, designed, installed, tested and capable of being
operated and maintained according to the owner's project
requirements. The commissioning process is frequently performed for
both new construction and major capital improvement or retrofit
projects. Existing building systems can also be commissioned to
identify operations and maintenance improvements necessary to meet
current facility requirements. |
