Building Commissioning is a vital quality assurance process

that is being widely implemented in today’s building construction industry. It is a process that helps to insure that high performance buildings and systems are designed, built, tested and can be maintained to meet the owner’s specific operational needs. Modern buildings are growing increasingly complex with a myriad of interconnected systems, and KLG Jones provides a rigorous, systematic process to ensure that the systems are fully integrated and functional. Commissioning most frequently focuses on the mechanical, electrical, telecomm/data and low voltage systems in buildings, but it can also be applied to any system, including the building envelope.

Commissioning ideally begins at the programming or the earliest stages of design and typically continues for at least a year after the completion of construction. It is a process that helps to ensure that high performance buildings and systems are designed, built and tested to meet the owner’s specific operational needs, including ongoing maintainability. It is a process that identifies and corrects functional problems before the owner moves in.
