1 INTRODUCTION Commissioning (Cx) is a quality assurance process that works to ensure the design intent of a building is fully realized. It requires a systematic approach to review, verify, and document that the specified components and systems have been designed, installed, properly started up, and functionally tested to assure proper operation of equipment through all modes and conditions, including seasonal systems tests. The process begins as a part of the construction phase and extends through project completion, closeout, and warranty reviews. Documentation of Cx activities is provided to the building owner as a Final Report that outlines the events and findings of the project, including a comprehensive review of all findings, recommendations, and resolutions of identified problems. Cx is not intended to replace or eliminate any requirements or responsibilities for reviews, inspections, or other quality control measures by any other firm, organization, or party. Designers, contractors, and project managers maintain their obligations as a function of their roles and responsibilities. DEFINITIONS AND ROLE CLARIFICATION Definitions: District (School District or Owner) Architect/Engineering Firm (A/E) Contractor Commissioning (Cx) Commissioning Authority (CxA) Test and Balance (TAB) Owner s Project Requirements (OPR) Basis of Design (BOD) Project Team (A/E, Contractor, Owners) The CxA serves as the Owner s contractual representative and will act in the Owner s best interest by following accepted industry and professional standards. The CxA may not be an employee of or in contract with the A/E or GC on the project and will work independently from both; however, the CxA will collaborate with the A/E and GC throughout the construction process to meet deadlines and provide feedback to the Owner and the A/E as the process moves forward. The CxA will provide a final review and confirmation as the contractor makes corrections previously identified by the CxA and logged into a Commissioning Log Report.

2 The Contractor is the primary facilitator and scheduler of all project-related activities. The Contractor is responsible for all project scheduling, documents, and communications. The Contractor has primary responsibility for ensuring that the project construction team makes all necessary corrections identified by the CxA. The Contractor will incorporate the CxA s scheduled Cx activities and milestones into the project master schedule. The School District (Owner) is expected to be fully engaged and active in the Cx process. The Owner will work with the A/E to define the Owner s Project Requirements (OPR). The Project Architect/Engineer of Record (A/E) is responsible for development of the Design Intent. The Design Intent includes the OPR, the Basis of Design (BOD), and the related documents for the project. It is the specific responsibility of the CxA to customize the Cx process outlined below to meet the OPR. QUALIFICATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE CxA Experience requirements: The CxA to have documented CxA experience in at least 2 building projects and 3 years of recent direct Cx project experience; The CxA shall meet with the Owner to clearly understand the Owner s Expectations as outlined in the OPR document; The CxA shall keep the Owner apprised of and involved in decision-making regarding system optimization, corrections, and issues as they arise; The CxA shall collaborate with the Contractor and the Project Team regarding scheduling of all Cx activities; The CxA shall inform the Project Team of system corrections and/or optimizations that should be addressed in a timely fashion; The CxA shall have access to an appropriate inventory of tools, equipment, instruments, and software necessary to perform Cx tasks. All CxA-provided equipment and instrumentation shall be current on all applicable certifications. CxA-provided equipment and instrumentation shall remain the property of the CxA; The CxA is expected to have an expert level proficient understanding of the trades and related technology for Cx; Page 2 of 8 Limited Commissioning Guidelines 3/23/2015
3 Should specialty or proprietary software, equipment, or tools be required for Cx activities; the CxA shall work with the Contractor or vendor to obtain training and access in the use of such tools.

Seasonal Testing and Eleven Month Period Report (Alternate Cost); 9. Final Cx Report (Closeout). FUNCTIONAL TEST AND SAMPLING The CxA will identify the testing process and what is to be tested (i.e., critical, primary, noncritical). 1. CxA will complete functional tests of system components as previously described; 2. All critical and primary HVAC systems (new install only) shall be tested. Page 6 of 8 Limited Commissioning Guidelines 3/23/2015
7 3. Functional testing of all equipment and systems to be Cx will include but not be limited to verifying proper operation of systems, checking for calibration of all sensors and controls, commanding damper and valve actuators fully opened and closed, observing responses, verify that all systems and devices go to a fail-safe position upon shutdown, verify that standby equipment properly operate upon loss of primary devises or power, and verify that the various control loops have been tuned and operate according to the sequence of operation and the Engineers design intent. 4. The functional testing of automatic control systems will also include but not be limited to a checkout of required graphics programming, review of the programming for compliance with the sequence of operation, and analysis of trend data for proper systems response and loop stability. 5. Randomly test at least ten percent (10%) of estimated worst-case final TAB report data for each group of identical equipment. 1. The sample set must not be smaller than three. 2. If ten percent (10%) of the sample group fails a second group of ten percent (10%) is selected and tested. If the second test fails then the whole group fails. The TAB agency shall be liable for retesting a part or all of the specific HVAC systems before undergoing further performance verification. 6. Verify contractor control input/output (I/O) point-to-point (PTP) termination. Use random statistical sampling; by testing at least ten percent of the estimated worstcase or most critical points. 7. All controls will be randomly tested for correct I/O PTP terminations. All invalid PTP terminations shall be corrected. Any specific control system having more then fivepercent (5%) invalid PTP terminations shall be completely rechecked by the controls contractor. 8. If at any point, frequent failures are occurring or necessary work remains incomplete or unattended and testing is becoming more troublesome and more then verification, the CxA will stop and immediately inform the Contractor. The responsible subcontractor will be required to perform and document a checkout of all the remaining units, prior to continuing with the functional testing. The Contractor must be informed of the Cx progress and will coordinate any initial work and remediation. Excessive retesting and verification may be considered additional service of the CxA.
