WHAT WE DO
❑ COMMISSIONING. A process that verifies and documents that all equipment, facilities and systems in a building or critical mission environment are planned, designed, assembled and tested to function according to the operational requirements of the property or end user and to be managed by appropriately trained operating and maintenance personnel.
❑ TESTING-ADJUSTING-BALANCING (TAB). Consists of carrying out and documenting operations, tests and measurements on the building's installations and systems once their correct assembly has been completed and verified, with the aim of adjusting the design values and conditions of the Execution Project.
❑ AUDIT. The process of verifying and documenting the operating and maintenance conditions of a building's installations and systems, identifying anomalies and opportunities or recommendations for improvement.

COMMISSIONING SERVICES
COMMISSIONING MANAGEMENT - CxM
COMMISSIONING MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR NEW BUILDINGS –
CxM: ❑ Start in the design phase. They include the management, coordination, planning, supervision, validation and documentation of the execution and start-up of the installations of a building, new or refurbished environment, in order to verify compliance with its operational requirements.
Commissioning Process Sequence and Actions
MGMT. COORDINATION PLANNING SUPERVISION DOCUMENTATION
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSIONING - CxA
ENVIRONMENTAL COMMISSIONING SERVICES OR COMMISSIONING
AUTHORITY – CxA:
❑ In support of sustainability and building comfort certification processes, such as LEED®, BREEAM, VERDE, WELL, CRADLE TO CRADLE, etc. These services enable the achievement of objectives that make it possible to ensure and document that the facilities have been efficiently commissioned and that the O&M personnel have the appropriate competence to manage them. The scope of these services includes:
Drafting Commissioning Plan and Systems Manual
Validation of the Operating Staff
Post-Occupational Audit
TEST VALIDATION - Vx
INDEPENDENT VALIDATION SERVICES – Vx:
❑ Independent verifications and measurements of the tests and adjustments of the start-up operations of the equipment, systems and installations of a new or refurbished building, carried out by the contractors and manufacturers.
PRECONDITIONS VALIDATION TEST PREPARATION TRIAL RUN EQUIPMENT / SYSTEM TEST RESULTS COMPARISON WITH NOMINAL VALUE / CONDITION ADJUSTMENT ACCEPTANCE VALIDATION TEST DOCUMENTATION REPETITION
CONTINUOUS COMMISSIONING - CxC
CONTINUOUS COMMISSIONING SERVICES – CxC:
❑ Applied as a continuation of the Commissioning Process, immediately after final acceptance, in order to check that the building continues to meet its updated operating requirements. They consist in scheduling deferred tests throughout its life cycle, with the objective of:
❑ Follow up on the resolution of anomalies pending from construction works
❑ Adjust installations to real functional needs
❑ Optimise energy consumption
❑ Identify possible opportunities for operating and maintenance improvements
❑ Monitor life-cycle performances
RECOMMISSIONING OF EXISTING BUILDINGS - RCx
RECOMMISSIONING SERVICES FOR EXISTING BUILDINGS – RCx:
❑ Applied in existing buildings where the initial start-up was not carried out or was insufficient, with the result that many original and undetected functional anomalies have become chronic. The aim is to improve the overall operation and maintenance of equipment, systems and installations.
❑ The implementation of a Recommissioning Process makes it possible to solve existing problems, detect previously unknown problems and implement the corresponding corrective measures, improve efficiency and extend the lifetime of equipment, as well as optimize maintenance operations by improving the overall performance of the building.
EXISTING BUILDING COMMISSIONING - EECx
EXISTING BUILDING COMMISSIONING SERVICES – EECx: ❑ Consist of the implementation of a systematic process of planning, analysis and diagnosis of the operation and maintenance of an existing building or infrastructure, in order to propose and implement improvements that do not require a large investment and ensure the sustained maintenance of optimized performance.

INTEGRATION TESTS - IST
Developed in critical mission environments, for example, Data Centers (DCs), with the objective of verifying that all systems respond to different maneuvers, maintenance activities or failures as designed according to their topology, characteristics, operating memories and Operator requirements.
❑
Level 5. Integration Tests
INTEGRATION TESTS - IST
Possible outcomes can be:
❑ Validated without observations
❑ With constraints and/or recommendations:
❑ Design: conditioning or operational constraints
❑ Execution: conditioning or operational limitations
❑ Start-up: correctable
