Commissioning management refers to the final construction process of ensuring that the design and construction of a building or facility is completed in accordance with the Owner’s requirements and specifications. This involves coordinating all activities associated with the commissioning process, including planning, design, construction and commissioning management.
Our key aspects of the commissioning management process include:
- Planning: Involves developing a commissioning management plan (procedure or roadmap) that describes the scope, goals, and requirements of the commissioning process.
- Design review: Involves reviewing of design documentation to ensure that it fully meet the Owner’s requirements and specifications.
- Construction supervision: This includes monitoring the construction process, as well as the formation of a package of required as-built documentation for the State Commission folder to ensure that the building or facility is constructed in accordance with the design and as-built documentation and meets the Owner’s requirements. This also includes creating a defect list and eliminating of snags.
- Testing and verification: This includes testing and verifying that the building or site complies with the Owner’s requirements and specifications, including functional testing, performance testing and system integration testing including fire alarm, fire suppression, smoke removal and evacuation systems, etc.
- Documentation and training: This involves documenting the commissioning process and training building or facility operators to ensure they can effectively operate and maintain the building or facility.
Effective implementation of commissioning management ensures that building operators benefit from systems, facilities or equipment that are installed, tested and functioning as intended.
This process involves various stakeholders and activities, including:
- Contractor/Construction Manager: Responsible for executing the construction process, testing materials and equipment, and managing inspection and testing of commissioned building components.
- Commissioning management: Includes defining the commissioning approach and scope, clearly defining and communicating commissioning scope, processes and responsibilities, and ensuring that commissioning tasks are completed by qualified individuals that equipment and systems meet program requirements.
- Commissioning Manager: Oversees the commissioning process, develops commissioning plans and strategies, coordinates activities, collaborates with project teams and stakeholders, ensures compliance with regulations and standards, and conducts inspections and tests to verify system performance.
- Commissioning specialists: Engage in the comprehensive application of engineering techniques to verify and test each operational component of a project, from individual functions to complex assemblies, ensuring a safe and orderly handover of the asset to the Owner.
By preparing detailed procedures & commissioning roadmaps and implementing effective commissioning management methods, EK Innovative Engineering can help Clients benefit from the value engineering process of optimizing construction costs to improving building performance, reducing energy consumption, and completing object commissioning on schedule to the Client satisfaction.
Additionally, by effective managing the commissioning process of a building or object, we can help identify clashes and correct design and construction problems early in the project, reducing risks of costly rework and project delays.
