Commissioning
It begins with design development. Working hand-in-hand with our architect partners and owners, we select an approach that meets your programmatic, budgetary, and aesthetic goals.
Quality Assurance
OSEG’s Building Commissioning Services works with our clients to ensure that their facilities are operating at their optimal efficiency. We work with the owner to act as their technical representative on the project to verify that the installed systems are working properly and that their staff is properly trained to maintain the facility.
Building commissioning is quality assurance for a building owner that they are getting exactly what they want and what they are paying for. By integrating a commissioning agent with a building design team, the owner has someone involved every step of the way that is only concerned with the owner’s interests. The commissioning agent can be involved from the pre-design phase all the way through the occupancy phase and in many cases continue to be
involved throughout the operation of the facility to verify systems continue to perform as they should.
Commissioning is a prerequisite for any LEED project but can also be very valuable for any new building not attempting LEED certification. Existing buildings will also benefit from retro commissioning by experiencing a reduction in energy costs and improved occupant comfort.
Expert-optimized design solutions save time/cost through quality contract documents.
Commissioning
High-quality buildings require high-performing building systems. Commissioning (Cx) is a systematic process for achieving, verifying, and documenting that the building systems are not only properly designed and constructed, but they also operate as intended. SKA provides traditional MEP Commissioning, as well as Building Envelope Commissioning (BECx).
