The construction world is constantly evolving, and the world of construction software moves at least as fast. As a vendor that works closely with a variety of commissioning firms, large owners, general contractors, and others from across North America and beyond, we'll present emerging technology applications that we see changing the expectations of what commissioning can deliver.
We'll look at how machine learning can ease field data entry and automatically identify issues, consider the potential of 100%testingthroughan automated checklist and test execution, and explore the impact of increased integration between software products. Finally, we'll discuss how these capabilities go hand-in-hand with the push towards more rigorous commissioning processes and the increasing demands for fine-grained data capture.

Learning Objectives:

1. Demonstrate the current use and potential of machine learning to assist in recording data and identifying issues.
2. Explain the mechanics of automated checklist and test execution and the opportunities this technology presents to commissioning providers.
3. Describetherisingdemandforcloserinteroperationbetweenprojectteammembersand their software and the challenges and opportunities it presents.
4. Discuss the ways current construction trends, such as the growth of data centers, require more rigorous management of commissioning and the influence that has on commissioning processes and tools.
