Commissioning

The rubber meets the road when high performance buildings move from design to construction. HabLab has performed commissioning for over 20 projects and knows how to work with construction teams to turn expectations of high performance into reality.

HabLab emphasizes the following when providing Commissioning Services:

  • two construction team members reviewing plans

    Not Just Checking The Box

    No “drive by” commissioning reports here. We forge a strong working relationship with construction teams and communicate clearly and consistently to ensure issues are well understood by all.

  • clamp squeezing a checklist

    Less is More

    More checklists don’t mean better results. We carefully craft our documents to focus on critical issues that the Owner cares about and remove questions that are redundant or impossible to verify.

  • computers connected via the cloud

    Cloud Communication

    HabLab utilizes the cloud based tool CxAlloy for fast and efficient project communication.

  • two people on a screen share video conference with view of BAS screen

    Zoom + SPTs

    Point to point testing must be done in person but many of System Performance Testing tasks are well suited for a video conference call with BAS screen sharing. Participants are more focused, Owners can watch from anywhere, and delays and issues are easily accommodated.

Typical Commissioning Services include the following:

  • Owner’s Project Requirements (OPR) Development

  • Design Review

  • Construction Verification

  • System Performance Testing

  • Ongoing Commissioning / Measurement and Verification
