Building Tuning

All Buildings once completed and fully commissioned as designed will require “fine tuning” to optimise the performance of the various systems that provide amenity to the occupants.

The purpose of the building tuning period, which typically commences post practical completion and handover is to identify opportunities for enhancement of both performance and energy efficiency without compromising the comfort conditions.

This is achieved via continued collaboration between the design team, contractors and of course the occupants. The role of the Commissioning Manager in this phase of the project is to align and lead the team to enhance the outcome.

Soft Landings

The Soft Landings Framework aims to facilitate a collaborative and informed approach to the handover process such that there is a seamless transition from construction to operations.

Recommissioning

Recommissioning is a worthwhile regular exercise that should often follow a noticeable increase in energy consumption, water consumption or increase in tenant complaints about comfort levels.
