Commissioning Support for Building Automation Systems – Part 11

Description

The commissioning provider is expected to assure that the building automation system (BAS) is properly installed, operational and meets key design requirements. This webinar describes the role of the commissioning provider in the design, purchase, installation, testing and performance validation of a BAS. Harry Koons focuses on the roles and responsibilities of commissioning during the functional and integrated system testing, and how commissioning can assure the system meets all design requirements and critical functions. The presentation touches on the pitfalls and shortfalls found during commissioning, how to avoid or address them in a timely manner, and how to interact with the BAS vendor and subcontractors.
