This talk explains how the ASHRAE Guideline 0 and 1.1 commissioning processes apply to design engineers and how to utilize the commissioning agent's services to reduce the design engineer's work and increase profits. It also provides the information and services that the commissioning agent should provide that will assist the design engineer during design, construction, and warrantee periods. Then how to integrate the commissioning process into the contract documents so it is not an additional "add-on" service, but an integrated quality control process. Also, how to apply the commissioning process to LEED Projects is discussed.
