New Construction Commissioning

Picture
New construction commissioning involves commissioning of new buildings, newly installed equipment as part of a retrofit project, and can be performed in support of LEED Fundamental and Enhanced Commissioning services.

When a building is initially commissioned it undergoes an intensive quality assurance process that begins during design and continues through construction, occupancy, and operations. Commissioning ensures that the new building operates initially as the owner intended and that building staff are prepared to operate and maintain its systems and equipment. 

Bolder Energy adheres to a specific building commissioning process:

Pre-Design Phase




Design Phase
