The presentation includes a discussion regarding the role of the commissioning agent and what information is required from both the Owner and EOR to facilitate a successful commissioning program. It also discusses how and why the CxA must remain independent of the EOR while also teaming with the EOR and the entire project team to facilitate a win-win outcome. The presentation explains how expanding the traditional scope of commissioning can be made to easily include leading the effort to deliver the needed FM/O&M programs, procedures and training.
