Commissioning Academy
Helping You Get Started with CommissioningGetting Started with Commissioning Can Be Difficult
Commissioning is not well understood on projects, and there are limited sources of information to help you get started
That's Why We Created the Commissioning Academy
To give you the fundamental information to get you started with commissioning
We could see that people were looking for guidance – just like you – feeling stuck and let down by the lack of resources and support for commissioning
People just needed a little bit of guidance on commissioning best-practices, so they could make sure their commissioning was successful.
Commissioning is complex, but it doesn’t have to be difficult, when you get support to get started in the right direction.
So my team and I compiled the industry-best practices for comissioning into one easy to access location – so everyone has access to this information – and can apply lessons learned to projects for successful commissioning and startup.
If you’re just getting started with commissioning, and need some fundamental guidance on the standards to follow, the software to use, and how to ensure your commissioning is successful, then take advantage of the resources and support we’ve compiled to help you with capital project commissioning.
Project Outcomes Will Improve When We Learn and Share with Others
