The ASHRAE Guideline defines the commissioning process
as "a quality-oriented process for achieving, verifying,
and documenting that the performance of facilities,
systems, and assemblies meets defined objectives and
criteria".
Commissioning of your new buildings systems or
Retrocommissioning existing systems is
one of the most important factors when trying to insure
equipment longevity, energy efficiency, occupancy
comfort and operational cost control in your facility.
The C&C Group will help you target your commissioning
goals for your new or existing facility.

building systems perform
interactively according to the
contract documents, the owner’s objectives and
operational needs.
Existing Systems Retrocommissioning Goals:
Restore equipment to its proper operational state
Reduce complaints
Reduce energy and demand costs
