Commissioning management
The BSRIA guide to 'Commissioning Air Systems' (BG 49/2024), written by by Keith Barker and published by BSRIA in March 2024, explains how to commission ducted air distribution systems in buildings. It was originally published in 2013, then 2015 with the latest update in 2024.
It defines Commissioning Management for the purposes of the guide as: ‘The planning, monitoring and control of all aspects of commissioning and the engagement of all those involved in it, to achieve the specified outcomes.’
It defines a Commissioning manager (CxM) as 'The entity that leads the management of the commissioning process on a project'.
It defines a Commissioning specialist as 'The organisation or person appointed to carry out specified duties in connection with functional testing and regulating of systems'.
The previous version of the same document from 2015 defines the Commissioning Management Organisation as: 'The firm (or person) appointed to manage the commissioning process, being responsible for overall planning, supervision and witnessing of the results of the integrated commissioning of all installed building services systems.'
