1. COMMISSIONING DEFINITION
A new facility must operate as it was designed
Any new facility is considered incomplete until it has been successfully
commissioned and is operating satisfactorily. Programme of testing,
inspection and commissioning will ensure:
Compliance with schedule
Managing your commissioning can help meet your project targets and
minimise any potential problems during the crucial implementation stage or
once the facility is operational
Quality
Ensuring installation of the facility is completed to high standards so it
works first time, every time
Health and safety
Setting procedures and processes to ensure that commissioning is
undertaken safely
Statutory and regulatory compliance
Validation gives you assurance that your facility has been specified,
designed, installed, commissioned and is operating to standards acceptable to
your requirements and any inspecting authorities.
We can verify facilities through the planning, supervision and
implementation of commissioning activity, including:
Preparing and cleaning of systems ready for testing
Initial testing of systems with power, water and air
Verifying control systems
Start up of equipment
Verifying the whole operational process against performance targets.
