The United States Green Building Council (USGBC) has described Commissioning as:
“The process that verifies and ensures that the fundamental building systems are designed , installed, and calibrated to operate as intended”.
Commissioning should be important to the Owner and Operator of every facility, but it is crucial for building managers responsible for the critical operations.
LLI has been providing commissioning services for the clients in the telecommunications industry for over 40 years; supporting some of the largest and most reliable networks and facilities in the world. LLI is uniquely qualified to provide commissioning having experience and staff experts in all phases of building design and construction. For critical facilities, LLI also provides cascading systems and single point of failure analysis services.
The result is a finely tuned building providing maximum return on your investment by minimizing inefficiencies and errors while, at the same time, giving you the confidence that the building will operate as intended under high stress conditions.
Substantial value can be realized from the recommissioning of existing facilities.
An LLI Recommissioning Program can establish an objective bench mark of current operating conditions with which building owners and operators can make informed decisions regarding planning and operational issues, including:
- Planning – capitalization planning for the phased repair or replacement of ageing equipment
- Operations – control systems calibration, energy analysis, maintenance programs, and energy cost reduction
- Risk Management – cascading systems and single point of failure analysis
The commissioning and start-up programs developed by LLI Engineering meet the requirements of the USGBC for LEED Certification Prerequisite No. 1 in the Energy and Atmosphere Section. LLI Engineering has also used our processes as the third-party Commissioning Agent required for the Advanced Commissioning Credit.
