Building Commissioning Services
Capital projects are expensive. Building components use complex technology. Systems are sophisticated. Labor costs are substantial. And when the project is complete, the owner expects it to function as designed.
Building commissioning, beginning with design, continuing through final punch list, and even further into staff operations training, is the only way to ensure that this happens.
Building commissioning represents only 1-2% of the capital outlay. That investment is returned quickly in reduced operating costs, and the savings are compounded many times over by assuring that expensive systems and components are long lived.
The Plumb team has commissioned hundreds of thousands of square feet of modern construction. On a typical project the number of deficiencies is typically in the hundreds to thousands, depending on the size of the building.
While commissioning is a relatively new concept, it is one that the owner dare not ignore.
