Commissioning Services
Commissioning is possibly the most important activity in the construction process which enables the Mechanical and Electrical Services installation to achieve the environmental conditions desired by both the designer and end user. The purpose of Commissioning is to ensure the completed installation is inspected, `set to work`, tested, adjusted and regulated, ensuring that when handed over to Client the operational services of the building are successfully working in accordance with the correct design specification. It will also demonstrate that the installed equipment complies with the design intent, as outlined in the design specification. From a programming point of view, commissioning and balancing activities have to be carried out in a strict sequence with little variance to allow a seemless handover.
Commissioning activities therefore, are less flexible than any other part of the installation, where alternative sequences can be adopted to provide maximum usage of labour resources, or the availability of resources. Over a number of years we have developed a standard approach to commissioning to ensure not only the minimum overall quality on a project, but improved performance on all our projects by staff familiarisation. Standardisation enables us to resource more efficiently and to cover unforeseen absences due to sickness, holidays etc. with minimum disruption to both client and project. MWS (UK) Ltd provides qualified experienced Commissioning Engineers who are graded in accordance with the requirements of the Commissioning Specialists Association (CSA) to fulfill the needs of all HVAC commissioning from small projects up to the largest installations.
