At CriticalArc, our team is focused on building commissioning. It is our core business and we’ve combined decades of experience to streamline the process, build value and save money. We employ Professional Engineers, Certified Commissioning Providers and LEED Accredited Professionals, and pride ourselves on building a team of extremely detail-oriented technical engineers.
Eager to improve on the status quo, CriticalArc founders set out to revolutionize the often tedious, cumbersome, and outdated approach to building commissioning.
The four points above outline how the commissioning industry is evolving. The evolution from printed checklists and endless spreadsheets to online database-driven workflows has revolutionized the way commissioning records are maintained and has increased the day-to-day transparency of the entire commissioning process. At CriticalArc, we were early adopters of this technological change in the industry.
We are Building Confidence.
WHERE DID COMMISSIONING ORIGINATE?
The term “commissioning” was derived from the maritime industry. A commissioned vessel is one that has been deemed ready for service and is only awarded this recognition after undergoing vigorous sea trials in which every critical system is stress tested under real-life conditions. In addition to physical tests of the ship’s operating systems, the vessel’s crew must also be trained to correctly operate each of the shipboard systems.
Similarly, building commissioning is critical to maximizing the efficiency of systems and operators, while subsequently minimizing the total cost of ownership of any facility.
