MEP Systems Review
A "Review Cycle" for each of the identified Systems to be Commissioned will be provided and consist of the following milestone activities
- A thorough Review of the Sequence of Operations and Contract Documents, with a comparison of each to the Design Intent.
- The generation of an Assessment Document listing questions for, or requesting clarification from, the Engineer of Record (EOR).
- Submittal of the Assessment Document to the EOR for review and comment.
- A review of the Comments/Responses received from the EOR pertaining to the Assessment Document.
- A final report to the Project Team
HTS will provide owner’s representation for construction of MEP systems with highly qualified electrical, mechanical and controls engineers.
Mechanical: HVAC and Controls
Building Systems Commissioning is the verification of the performance of a system, and a quality assurance program with a significant amount of field testing both during the initial installation phase and upon completion of construction. Commissioning is essentially a ‘quality assurance’ process for buildings and is intended to verify and document that building systems operate in accordance with the design intent. The results are functional building systems that can be operated and maintained for the useful life of the building.
Electrical: Switchgear, distribution gear
The electrical acceptance testing and commissioning of electric power systems is essential to the start up of any electrical system for the first time, regardless of its size, type or industry. It is a very special occurrence and poses some unique challenges to electrical personnel. Inexperience and poor planning will inevitably result in prolonged delays in the start up which can lead to costly productivity losses.
Plumbing: Domestic and Heating Hot Water, Medical Gases
Today’s hospitals are among the most complex of all building types. A hospital is comprised of an extensive assortment of services and components. Due to the widespread and continuously developing needs of hospitals, their complicated plumbing systems require specialized knowledge and expertise to design and maintain. A thorough hospital design is critical.
