The commissioning process activities completed by the CxA during the design & bid phase include: 1. Conduct a commissioning kick-off meeting with the project team. 2. Review the Owner’s Project Requirements. 3. Review the Basis of Design as prepared by the Design team. 4. Attend meetings, design workshops, design reviews, and value engineering discussions during design. Participate in discussions relating to new technologies being evaluated to meet energy efficiency and sustainability requirements. 5. Perform commissioning design review and conduct a design review meeting at each review. Verify the Basis of Design in regard to the Owner’s Project Requirements. a. Schematic Design b. Design Development c. 90% Construction Document d. 100% Construction Document 6. Develop full commissioning specifications for all commissioned equipment. Coordinate this with the architect and engineers and integrate the commissioning specifications into the overall project specification package. The specifications shall follow the intent of ASHRAE Guideline 0-2005 The Commissioning Process. The commissioning specification will include a detailed description of the responsibilities of all parties, details of the commissioning process, reporting and documentation requirements (including formats), alerts to coordination issues, deficiency resolution, construction checklist and startup requirements, and the functional testing process. 7. Develop a commissioning plan encompassing the design, construction, occupancy and operations phases. B. Commissioning Process During the Construction Phase: During the construction phase, the CxA will coordinate and direct commissioning activities in a logical, sequential and efficient manner using consistent protocols, clear and regular communications and consultations with all necessary parties, frequently update timeline, schedules, and technical expertise. The commissioning process activities accomplished by the CxA during the construction phase include: 1. Update construction phase commissioning plan and integrate with overall schedule. Organize the commissioning process components and conduct a commissioning kick-off meeting where the commissioning process requirements are reviewed with the commissioning team. 2. Review submittals concurrent with the design professional’s review for compliance with the Owner’s Project Requirements. 3. Coordinate and lead an integrated controls meeting...
