Best Practices of Commissioning to Follow During the Turnover Phase

Image
  Commissioning - Turnover Phase •         The turnover phase of any construction project is a well-ordered shift of building operations to the operation and maintenance (O&M) team from the project commissioning management services team. •         This transition is physical, signifies completion of commissioning-specific activities and involves knowledge transfer in the form of documentation. •         A successful transition is said to occur when the commissioning-specific documentation is complete, fully organised, building systems are operable as per the design and O&M personnel are trained appropriately to operate the systems. Up to Date As-Built Documentation •         Construction projects are largely directed by design documents that elucidate and describe countless working elements that require to be put together for ...

Improving Handover from Construction Phase to Commissioning Phase

Image
  Handover of subsystems to the commissioning team from the construction team is perhaps one of the most challenging facets of project commissioning. Having said that, it shouldn’t have to be complicated and all you need is to plan it thoughtfully in advance. Obviously, the construction phase plan requires to be fully aligned with the commissioning phase plan. This ensures that all parts of the project are completely ready and easily available when you require them to facilitate the overall start-up and commissioning sequence. Projects today are more complex than ever before, which makes the process of handover even tougher. Given the sea of information that needs to be handled during the handover, spreadsheets and paper are not the most suitable tools to manage such massive details. Way better options are now available that could streamline the entire process while ensuring that no details are lost during the process. Commissioning professionals should leverage commissioning manag...
