What slows a commissioning job down

Most delays on a controls scope are predictable.

Where testing stalls

  • Sequences that are not fully programmed when functional testing starts.
  • Points lists and as-builts that do not match what is installed.
  • Trends that were never set up, so there is no data to review.
  • Deficiencies marked closed without anyone proving the fix.
  • A proprietary front end that makes trends and data hard to get out.

What you can count on

  • Submittals, points lists and sequences that reviewers actually approve.
  • Sequence and points-list problems caught on paper, not at startup.
  • Startup, point-to-point checkout and commissioning support that closes out.
  • Open BACnet and Niagara integration instead of a proprietary front end.
  • One accountable team from engineering through warranty.
Digital commissioning

Tested the same way every time

With Environ, commissioning tests run on the live equipment and keep a record of every result, so a result means the same thing on every building and after every repair.

Prebuilt

Guideline 36 library

27 prebuilt tests across 18 equipment types, aligned to ASHRAE Guideline 36-2024 where the guideline covers the equipment.

Group tests

A whole air handler in one run

Test the terminals served by one air handler as a single reviewed run.

Retest

Proof after the repair

After a deficiency is corrected, the test runs again. Pass or fail, the measured response is kept against the asset.

Closeout

Documents as you go

Test sequences, discrepancy reports and closeout documents generated during the project.

A closed work order is an administrative state. A passed retest is operational proof. Environ is available through UCS. Guideline 36 references are not ASHRAE certification, and product availability is confirmed at quotation. See how Environ works →
Project types

Where we fit on your project

New construction, existing buildings and the jobs other controls shops would rather not bid.

New construction

Design-assist through commissioning

Documentation the owner can actually use at turnover.

Existing buildings

Corrections after testing

We inventory and document the installed base, then correct the deficiencies your testing finds.

After turnover

Continuous commissioning

Environ keeps watching after the project: prioritized work and a retest after each repair.

Hard-to-do work

Discovery first

Undocumented databases, custom logic and legacy generations that need discovery before testing.

FAQ

Commissioning questions we hear most

Do you support functional testing on site?

Yes. Commissioning support is part of how we close out a job: startup, point-to-point checkout, and working through the functional tests with the commissioning provider.

Can we get trend data out of the system?

Yes. We integrate on open BACnet and the Tridium Niagara framework, so trends, graphics and data are not trapped behind one vendor’s proprietary front end.

Can we use Environ on our own projects?

Yes. Environ is available through UCS for commissioning providers who want prebuilt and custom tests with a record of every result. Contact us to confirm product fit and availability for your project.

Do the prebuilt tests replace a commissioning plan?

No. The tests run the checks and keep the record. The plan, the judgment and the sign-off stay with the commissioning provider. Guideline 36 references are not ASHRAE certification.
