Overview

Commissioning is where a BMS earns its value. We prove every point, tune every strategy and witness every sequence, then document the results so the building starts life running the way it was designed to.

What we deliver

  • 01Point-to-point testing and full I/O proving
  • 02Sequence of operation validation
  • 03Strategy tuning and setpoint optimisation
  • 04Client witnessing and demonstration
  • 05Soft landings and seasonal commissioning
  • 06Full commissioning records and O&M data

How it works

Our approach to Commissioning

01

Pre-comm

Static checks, power-up and network verification.

02

Point proving

Every input and output tested and recorded against the points schedule.

03

Strategy

Sequences run, interlocks proved and setpoints optimised.

04

Witness

Client demonstration, training and signed commissioning documentation.

In detail

BMS commissioning that proves the building works

Commissioning is where the design is proven. We test every point, tune every control loop and demonstrate the system to the client before handover, so the building performs from day one.

We commission systems we have installed and systems installed by others, on new build, fit-out and retrofit projects across London and the South East.

Typical projects

  • Point-to-point testing and I/O verification
  • Control loop tuning and sequence proving
  • Witnessed demonstrations for clients and consultants
  • Seasonal commissioning and post-occupancy tuning

Standards and ways of working

  • ✓BSRIA commissioning guidance
  • ✓CIBSE Commissioning Code C
  • ✓Soft Landings handover principles
  • ✓Signed test sheets and commissioning records

Commissioning questions

Do you commission systems installed by others?+

Yes, as long as the installation is complete and accessible. We will flag any installation issues found during testing.

What documents do we get at the end?+

Signed point-to-point sheets, commissioning records, final strategy files and as-built information for the O&M manual.

Can clients witness the testing?+

Yes. We arrange witnessed demonstrations with the client, consultant or facilities team.

How long does commissioning take?+

It depends on the size of the system. We programme it early so it is not squeezed at the end of the project.
