COMMISSIONING SERVICES
We perform commissioning functions from the perspective of an equipment and systems operator, yielding long-term success stories that go beyond project turnover. We commission for system performance and treat each facility as if we would operate it for the next twenty years. This approach enhances the quality of the project, through improved energy efficiency, sufficient access to equipment, better operational characteristics and improved training of personnel.
New Construction Commissioning
New Construction Building commissioning for new construction is a systematic process that documents systems are designed, installed and operated in accordance with the Owner’s Project Requirements (OPR). The commissioning process is accomplished with a thorough review of the design documents. Atom will then prove sequence of operations by inspecting equipment during installation and, when ready, test systems performance. Commissioning integrates design, construction and operations to facilitate “big picture” project success, controlling conditions often underserved in the typical design and construction process.
Mission Critical Commissioning
Atom Engineering provides full life-cycle commissioning and consulting services to data centers, emergency operations centers and other mission critical facilities from design, through construction, right into operations and beyond. Built upon a proven and iterative commissioning process, we deliver consistent, reliable and thorough results at all levels of commissioning and apply our expert mission critical experience with our “boots on the ground” (engineers on site) approach to customize our services for your specific project requirements. We will validate designs, review equipment redundancy and reliability, ensure safe, efficient and long lasting operations while maximizing uptime.
Peer Review Services
Atom can provide peer review services to the design team for both contract document development, as well as, for shop drawing and submittal reviews. Some of the items reviewed during a peer review include review and comment of architectural drawings and specifications to confirm system performance in regard to air/water, thermal and structural performance, provide thermal analysis of typical details and required to ensure conformance with project specifications, review material selections and method of detailing to ensure project quality.
Existing Building Commissioning (EBCx)
The majority of existing buildings have not undergone any type of commissioning or QA process. Over time building performance degrades due to operational and occupancy changes. Most buildings are performing well below their potential, use more energy than necessary and cost more to operate than they should. EBCx involves investigating, analyzing and optimizing the performance of building systems through O&M improvement measures and ensuring their continued performance. The process assists in making the building systems perform interactively to meet the owner’s Current Facility Requirements (CFRs).
Constructability Review Services
Atom can assist the Construction Manager (CM) and/or General Contractor (GC) in the constructability and procurement for a variety of Building Envelope systems. These services can coincide with the preparation of the Architectural Documents by the Design Team, or be provided as a standalone service to the CM/GC during the construction phases.
O&M Consulting
Atom coordinates and writes operations procedures tailored to each facility, that allow for a quick and easy reference of all equipment and systems in the plant. This includes collecting and approving all the manufacturer data, preventative maintenance schedules and procedures and assembling this data in an easy-to-read manual.
