CCM produce Commissioning Completion Reports detailing building’s commissioning process, including system specifications, identification of the commissioning team, and a list of involved parties. These reports provide a link to the commissioning tracker, outline seasonal commissioning dates, and highlights any outstanding items.

‍

Our process is as follows:

• Form the commissioning team
• Review lessons learned about the performance of buildings and the commissioning process on similar projects
• Clearly identify the performance outcomes needed by the client and ultimate end user
• Understand through items 1 through 3 how the system is to operate in line with the clients brief
• Witness and record in line with the clients brief in sections 1 through 4
• Ensure that a budget will be assigned to undertake commissioning process activities
• Undertake commissioning team administration.
• Conduct pre-start commissioning workshops
• Produce a detailed commissioning programme
• Produce first draft commissioning method statements, checklists and tests sheets, and the offsite commissioning strategy before the start of installation works
• Perform a commissioned focused review of construction drawings and technical submittals
• Conduct mock-up performance tests with specialists assistance
• Co-ordinate third party involvement in the commissioning process
• Conduct pre-commissioning works, involving verification of installation works and static tests. Verify and document that the required performance outcomes have been achieved
• Collate the pre-commissioning checklists and test sheets in the format agreed by the commissioning team
• Monitor construction progress and its relationship with commissioning process activities
• Produce training courses and a training programme for users and operators
• Ensure continual progress is made with the production of the Commissioning Completion Report
• Undertake commissioning team administration.
• Appoint a commissioning management manager
• Review the design brief with the client to ensure that it properly expresses the performance outcomes required from the building and its engineering services
• Employ learning from previous projects to help ensure that the required performance outcomes will be produced for the client
• Perform commissioning focused design reviews
• Commence preparation of the commissioning specification
• Ensure commissioning process activities have been clearly and logically integrated into the overall programme of work for the project
• Make sure that the project cost plan is configured to include all the commissioning process activities described in the commissioning plan
• Update the client brief and the design brief as approved changes, additions or deletions are made to the design and then check against the client requirements
• Update the commissioning plan to reflect briefing and design changes and to include information for subsequent project stages
• Undertake commissioning team administration
• Introduce users to their building and show how it operates
• Help the facilities management team with initial building operation
• Observe occupant use of the building and fine-tune systems where necessary
• Update commissioning records in accordance with any approved changes
• Update the the building Commissioning Completion Report in accordance with any approved changes
• Produce a lessons-learned report about the commissioning process
• Undertake commissioning team administration
