Mitigating Risks. Every Step Of The Way!
~ Melissa I. Payne, Owner
Let’s face it, buildings leak! Owners and contractors battle these leaks for months and even years after substantial completion.
A properly implemented and executed Building Enclosure Commissioning (BECx) process mitigates risks resulting in sustainable efficient structures. The elements of the building enclosure have evolved and become complex systems. This has changed the design and construction of these “skins”.
So why is commissioning a plausible solution to these challenges?
Well, simply put it provides a proven and tried practice which offers guidance and structure to the complex industry of Building Enclosures. The BECx process is intended to define the project expectations, focus on quality assurance, quality control, verification of system performance, owner training, and maintenance guidance. Commissioning provides a successful trifecta scenario for the owner, design team and construction team.
