Independent Commissioning Agent(CxA Commissioning)
Commissioning is at the heart of what we do and we aim to deliver projects that meet our clients and owners’ goals every single time. Our commissioning authority services apply right from the very earliest stages of design and don’t end until your project is safely and successfully occupied and operating. Our Independent Commissioning Agent team will oversee every single step, from verifying and reviewing design drawings and construction documents, to fine tuning systems once your project is operating and occupied.
Why is CxA Commissioning so important?
Think of our commissioning services as your vital insight - an experienced, independent body that works alongside your design and construction team to ensure outstanding results. Commissioning has been proven to reduce the need for contractor call backs, as well as deficiencies in system performance. By contracting us as your Independent Commissioning Agent, you can also rest assured that your building will measure up to your required standards, such as global ASHRAE, CIBSE, BSRIA and SMACNA, or mandatory LEED, Estidama and GSAS system requirements.
Our Approach to CxA Commissioning
We know that each project is unique. That’s why we work closely with our clients from the very beginning to ensure we fully understand your goals. Our commissioning services are tailored to meet your individual requirements - whether you simply need advice on the operations side, or our full integration with your design team to address more complex issues. Our approach also relies on strong project management. This involves the cooperation of owners, designers, engineers and construction teams to take a project from design right through to an efficient delivery and beyond, to ensure your building operates successfully.
