New and outstanding deficiency list described on Form C-6, Commissioning Corrective Action Report and tracked on form C-1, Construction Commissioning Issues Log.

Commissioning progress that may include Form C-7, Commissioning Progress Record.

The CxAg regularly communicates with commissioning team members keeping them apprised of outstanding issues, commissioning progress, and scheduling through memos, progress reports, etc. The CxAg maintains all commissioning related materials to become part of final commissioning report.

5.7 Submittals and Documentation

5.7.1 Standard Submittals

The CxAg provides subcontractors responsible for commissioned equipment and systems with respective commissioning documentation requirements through the CM and PM. Subcontractor documentation submissions typically coincide with the Engineer submittal process.

At a minimum, documentation submissions shall contain:

Manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Start-up and checkout procedures.

Operation and Maintenance data.

Performance data.

Control drawings.

Sequence of Operations

The CxAg reviews commissioning related submissions specified in contract documents. Form C-2, Request for Documentation and Record of Submissions for Commissioning, shall be used to request documentation and to track documents. Form C-2 shall also be used for part of the final O&M documentation review checkoff.

5.7.2 Special Submittals, Notifications, and Clarifications

Sub-contractors, CM, or A/E shall notify CxAg within one week of approval of any design intent or operating parameter changes, commissioned system changes, added control strategies and operation sequences, or other change orders that may affect commissioned systems. The GC provides CxAg with a complete points list including details requested by CxAg in accordance with Specification Section 01810. Thirty (30) days prior to performing any applicable DFW-contracted tests, the sub’s must provide CxAg with full procedural details. These submittals do not constitute O&M manual submittal compliance. O&M manual documentation requirements are discussed in Commissioning Plan, Section 5.11. The CxAg may request additional design narrative clarification from A/E and/or the Contractor depending on completeness of original bid documents. The CxAg may submit written RFIs to contractors through CM using Form C-3D, Commissioning Request for Information.





CONSTRUCTION PHASE

SEPTEMBER 28, 2012

5.8 Construction Check Lists, Start-up Plan and Initial Checkout

Construction Check Lists (CLs) augment and are combined with manufacturer’s installation instructions, start-up instructions, and checkout plans. CLs help to document that systems have been installed and operate in accordance with contract documents and manufacturer’s recommendations and to ensure functional testing proceeds with minimal delays. Responsible contractors must fill in each commissioned equipment and system construction check list. No prefunctional testing sampling strategies shall be used. System prefunctional testing must be successfully completed prior to formal respective equipment, subsystem or assembly functional testing. CLs are primarily static inspections and procedures to identify installation requirements, equipment, or system initial operation requirements (e.g., oil levels OK, fan belt tension, labels affixed, gages in place, sensor Calibration, etc.). However, some pre-functional items entail simple testing of component function, equipment, or system piece (such as measuring voltage imbalance on a three-phase pump motor of a chiller system). As the term implies, “prefunctional” testing refers to testing that takes place prior to functional testing.

Contractors normally perform some, if not all, pre-functional items recommended by CxAg as part of start-up. This project requires written documentation of the installing contractor’s procedures. The CxAg witnesses selected prefunctional testing and start-up procedures and some spot-checking thereof.

The intent of these checklists is to verify the proper equipment was delivered prior to acceptance. If problems are not identified at this stage, then schedules and budgets are often compromised for both the owner and contractors.

There are system-based (ductwork, piping, etc.) and component-based (heat pumps, AHU’s, etc.) installation checklists. System-based check lists are developed to be used regularly on the systems for which work is on-going, and component-based checklists are separated based on the task being completed (e.g. hanging the box, hooking ductwork up, etc.) and are to be completed during a particular installation step.

Construction checklists are provided in Appendix 2 at the end of this document.

5.8.1 Initial Checkout and Start-up Plan (CL’s)

The CxAg assists commissioning team members to develop detailed equipment prefunctional testing and start-up plans. Responsible parties are identified in Form C-7, Commissioning Progress Record, and in CLs.

The following procedures shall be used:

1. The CxAg obtains manufacturer’s installation instructions, start-up instructions, and checkout plans, along with field technician checkout sheets from CM. Contractors shall provide supplemental detail and documentation to CxAg for systems with inadequate manufacturer’s start-up and checkout procedures, particularly components integrated with other equipment.

2. The CxAg develops a construction check list for each equipment piece from these materials.

3. Construction check lists, manufacturer’s installation instructions, start-up instructions, and checkout plans along with field technician checkout sheets become the Start-up and Checkout Plan.

4. The CxAg transmits the complete Start-up and Checkout Plan to the CM, who designates which trade or contractor is responsible to fill out each line item as indicated in the “Contr” column on the PC form. The CM then transmits the full start-up plan to Subs for their





CONSTRUCTION PHASE

SEPTEMBER 28, 2012

review and use. (This usually means CLs, alone, go to more than one Sub, while the full plan goes to the primary installing contractor.)

5.8.2 Initial Checkout and Start-up Execution

Subs and vendors schedule prefunctional testing and start-up with PM, CM, and CxAg four weeks prior to execution. Prefunctional testing and start-up are directed and executed by Subs and/or vendors. The CxAg, assisted by selected Owner Staff and PM, if necessary, observes selected prefunctional testing and start-up procedures.

To document prefunctional testing and start-up processes, site technicians performing line item tasks initial and date each construction check list paragraph, start-up plan, and manufacturer’s field checkout sheets. Only individuals having direct knowledge of a line item being completed shall check and initial forms.

Subs and vendors execute and submit signed construction check lists and start-up tests to CxAg for approval/acceptance. The CxAg may review prefunctional testing in progress. Each responsible trade shall fill out their portion of the construction check list form and provide them to CxAg through CM. The CxAg and/or selected Owner’s Staff may conduct spot-checks of completed forms.

5.8.3 Deficiencies and Non-Compliance

Subs must clearly identify incomplete start-up and construction check list items at bottom of procedure form or attach sheets as required. The procedure form and deficiencies must be provided to CxAg within 7 days of test completion. The CxAg works with Subs and vendors to correct deficiencies or incomplete items and retest, involving CM and others as necessary. Installing Subs or vendors correct deficient or incomplete areas according to checklists and tests. The CxAg completes Form C-7, Commissioning Progress Record, to recommend system start-up approval and forwards it to PM. The CxAg records all issues/deficiencies on Form C-01, as well as tracking of the cost benefits of commissioning.

5.9 Functional Testing and Verification Development

The CxAg uses a formal acceptance phase for use in the commissioning process that helps to facilitate the closeout of a project and helps minimize problems upon occupancy. The two items that are critical to this phase is the completion of functional testing and the completion of additional training.

5.9.1 Functional Testing Overview

Functional testing is equipment and system dynamic testing under all specified operation modes in lieu of individual system components (e.g., associated exhaust fan is tested interactively with air handling unit to verify constant differential pressure set point under various load conditions). Systems shall be tested under various modes in accordance with industry established test procedures, such as low or high load, component failure, unoccupied mode, varying outside air temperatures, fire alarm, power failure, etc. Equipment and system responses to all specified operation sequences shall be verified. The CxAg develops functional testing procedures in a sequential written format and coordinates, oversees, and documents installing contractor and/or vendor performed testing.





CONSTRUCTION PHASE

SEPTEMBER 28, 2012

5.9.2 Functional Testing Plan Overview and Status Record

The CxAg prepares the functional testing schedule and to integrate functional testing into the construction schedule. The CxAg will identify testing prerequisites, required contractors, and estimated time required for each test. The CxAg shall record results during functional testing.

5.9.3 Functional Testing Scope

The following equipment / systems will be tested:

Sample functional performance testing procedures are presented in Appendix 3 at the end of this document.

5.9.4 Development Process

Before writing testing procedures, the CxAg shall obtain all required documentation and change orders affecting commissioned equipment and systems, including updated points list, control sequences, and set points. The CxAg shall develop specific testing procedures to verify proper operation of all equipment and systems listed in the Commissioning Plan and Specifications. The CxAg shall obtain additional clarification from contractors and/or the Engineer regarding operation sequences as required.

Prior to functional testing execution, the CxAg shall provide a copy of equipment, and systems functional testing forms to the PM, who forwards them to installing Subs through the CM. The subs review tests for feasibility, safety, warranty, and equipment protection. Blank test procedure copies are included in O&M manuals for later use by facility operation staff.

Functional testing and verification may be preformed manually in accordance with State and Regulatory Guidelines or by manipulating equipment and observing performance. The CxAg follows the specified test procedures when given and uses discretion when test procedures are not given to determine which method is most appropriate. The CxAg reviews Owner-contracted

and factory required tests where applicable to determine if further testing is required for specification compliance verification.

5.10 Functional Testing Execution

5.10.1 Functional Testing Procedure Overview and Process

The CxAg schedules functional testing through PM and CM. Prior to performing any equipment or system functional testing, the CxAg obtains CLs with signatures confirming systems are ready for functional testing. The CxAg oversees, witnesses, and documents all equipment and system functional testing according to Cx Specifications and Plan. The Subs execute tests, unless otherwise specified. Testing proceeds from components, to subsystems, to systems, and finally to system interlocks. Refer to Commissioning Plan, Section 6 for additional functional testing scope details.

5.10.2 Deficiencies and Retesting

Minor deficiencies discovered during functional testing may be corrected during testing at the CxAg’s discretion. The CxAg records test results on the functional testing procedure form. Deficiencies and non-compliance issues are noted and reported to CM and PM on Form C-6, Commissioning Corrective Action Report. Subs correct deficiencies, notify CxAg of correction, and return Form C-6 certifying correction.

The CxAg schedules re-testing through the CM. Decisions regarding deficiencies and corrections are made between CxAg or CM and Sub. Primary dispute resolution authority resides with the Owner followed by the Engineer. The CxAg recommends test acceptance to CM who gives final approval for each test using Form C-22, Commissioning Construction check list and Start-up Submittal / Approval. Form C-7, Commissioning Progress Record, is provided for progress tracking and status.

5.10.3 Facility Staff Participation

DFW personnel shall assist CxAg and participate in the testing process. Form C-14, Facility Staff Participation in Commissioning, summarizes planning of staff involvement. The CxAg shall notify the PM, who shall then notify facility staff when commissioning events will occur.

5.10.4 Sampling

Multiple identical pieces of non-life-safety or otherwise non-critical equipment may be functionally tested using a sampling strategy at the CxAg’s direction. Commissioning Specifications address allowed sampling strategies.

5.11 O&M Manuals, Warranties, and Commissioning Record Book

5.11.1 O&M Manual and Warranty Overview

The CxAg reviews commissioned systems O&M manuals, documentation, and as-built drawings for specification compliance verification. The CxAg recommends O&M manual approval and acceptance to CM.
