Why Commissioning Agents, Inc.?

Fundamentally we at Commissioning Agents, Inc. (CAI) exist for one reason: To accelerate

our clients’ path to success. Our approach is simple; we put the client’s interests first. We

don’t stop until it’s right. And we’ll do whatever it takes to get there.

We bring top-tier expertise to every stage of a project – from creating comprehensive, detailed

project plans, to preparing your operations’ teams for operational excellence, to rigorous asset

management and maintenance activities. We are your choice:

Because your project requires planned, managed, and documented high quality testing to exacting standards

Because you need high-performance teams working with your interests in mind

Because mission critical projects are complex, highly-visible, and carries significant risk

Philosophically and practically, we believe that quality, cost and schedule can be mutually

reinforcing – trade-offs are not necessary. Short-changing the focus on quality usually means

problems down the road that can cost money and delay the schedule. But if quality is built in

from the start, then both the project delivery and the operational efficiency objectives can be

achieved with a much higher degree of assurance.

We believe that world class mission critical operations successfully plan and integrate three

key areas: (1) operations excellence; (2) people; and (3) robust equipment/automation/facility

technology. All of our services focus on integrating these areas for successful operations.

About CAI

In 1996, CAI was founded with the mission to meet a need in the pharmaceutical industry for

highly qualified applied engineers to provide commissioning,

qualification, and validation technical services. Our management

principles are based on the United States Navy’s Submarine

Nuclear Power Program’s which relies on a team of highly

qualified professionals and stresses technical excellence,

personal accountability, and continuous improvement.



Page | 2

Two decades later, CAI continues to strive to field the best and highest qualified professionals

in the industry. Today CAI is one of the largest companies in North America focused on and

exceling at commissioning and validation related services. We

have consistently applied our methods to commissioning mission

critical facilities for over a decade, offering our customers reliable,

high quality and cost-effective technical and compliance services.

Data Center Commissioning - Our Approach

The CAI Difference

Commissioning is a quality process which provides documented confirmation of proper

installation and function of a facility’s systems and components as designed and specified.

Commissioning ensures the facility meets the owner’s project requirements, the basis of

design, and the intended operational needs.

The CAI difference is that our experience in applying quality risk management principles to the

startup and commissioning of FDA regulated facilities. We draw focus on that which is

mission critical, while maintaining a holistic view of all required activities. When schedule

challenges arise, we know what testing can and cannot be skipped, adjusted, or modified.

We feel this is a unique approach in high performance environment commissioning activities.

By using a risk-based and scientific approach to data center commissioning, we will

concentrate testing efforts on those systems that have the greatest impact on reliable data

center operations. This results in a more thorough and cost effective process which saves

both time and money for the customer.

An Overview of CAI’s Commissioning Process

It is important to recognize our process does not diminish the responsibility of the system

designers or installing contractors, nor is it intended to be a redundant testing or inspection

function. Commissioning is performed to document and validate the efforts of the designers

and contractors, ensuring the quality of the systems meets the owner’s project requirements

as documented by the basis of design.

1. We verify building systems perform interactively according to project requirements,

Basis of Design and the Commissioning Plan of Record. CAI will perform detailed

design reviews to identify any Single Points of Failure through a careful review of the

construction drawings, specifications, and submittals.

2. We write the testing scripts/procedures to meet the client’s standards and needs.

3. We verify applicable equipment and systems are installed properly and receive

adequate quality checkout through careful site observation and verification of

contractor’s quality control documentation.

4. We chair weekly and daily testing meetings in support of the commissioning efforts as

determined by the commissioning schedule.



Page | 5

5. We verify and document the mechanical and electrical systems function and interact as

intended. This will be accomplished through witnessing and documenting at various

phases of the commissioning program culminating in an Integrated Systems Test (IST).

The IST will be conducted after all factory and field component/system quality control,

start-up, and test procedures have been completed. The goal of this testing is to verify

the operation, proper interdependencies, redundancies, and fail-safe operation of all

critical systems. In short, this phase of commissioning is intended to verify the

emergency and redundant systems, which are interrelated in complex manners, will

perform appropriately when called upon.

6. We develop and execute the testing procedures. Our test procedures are designed

based on the risk based approach mentioned. CAI will witness the system performance

following operation normally by the subcontractors and/or vendors.

7. Upon completion of the commissioning process, we deliver a comprehensive systems

manual to the owner. This electronic manual will provide the owner with a searchable

reference of all as-built drawings, specifications, O&M manuals, final commissioning

reports, and other important documentation.

Notes on the Commissioning Schedule

CAI will develop a detailed commissioning schedule with all tasks and deliverables required to

complete the Commissioning Process for testing beyond Factory Acceptance Testing (FAT).

The schedule is a living document that we will update as needed throughout the project.

CAI’s Approach to Project Execution:

The key to effective & efficient project execution is communication and planning. We

collaborate closely with project team members and all affected parties to craft, update and

execute the commissioning plan throughout the project lifecycle.

The following stages of a CAI managed project are briefly presented:

Project Initiation

We have found that a kick off meeting led by the CxA sets the stage for a successful project. The kickoff aligns all stakeholders and creates the highly collaborative project environment needed to meet schedule, documentation and good engineering practices.



Page | 6

Development Phase and Pre-Construction Phases

Develop/modify Commissioning Plan to include all client commissioning requirements

Review/revise Owners Project Requirements (OPR) document as needed

Review and respond to Requests for Information (RFI)

Verify Basis of Design as needed

Execute a risk analysis and mitigation program

Assist with construction documents commissioning design review

Verify commissioning measures are incorporated into construction documents

Construction Phase

Revise and update Commissioning Plan as necessary

Develop test procedures for and attend Factory Witness Tests

Perform site walks and installation verification activities

Organize & conduct commissioning meetings, & review updated look-ahead schedules

Obtain & review Contractor Pre-Functional Checklists and Start-up Test procedures to ensure compliance with manufacturer's recommendations and owner requirements.

Develop and integrate commissioning activities into the master construction schedule

Witness/review contractor & vendor pre-functional tests and equipment start-ups

Document issues identified during site visits and equipment testing for clarifications and/or corrective action recommendations

Commissioning & Turnover Phase

Develop all test procedures to execute Functional Performance and Integrated System Testing

Work directly with contractors and vendors to execute functional tests for all commissioned equipment and systems including all operating and failure modes. CAI will also, at the owner’s request, perform the actual equipment operations in place of the contractors to improve the efficiency of your testing program

Walk down major systems and redline drawings to reflect as-built conditions

Oversee the documents/records and conduct commissioning to provide the information required by the turnover package matrix.

Maintain & publish a Commissioning Issues Log to identify and track all issues to resolution



Page | 7

Conduct system turnover procedures and checklists to establish baseline system switch and valve positions

Develop Systems Manual for all commissioned systems

Coordinate, schedule, and oversee training of facility operations personnel, and

document the training

Compile Commissioning Summary Report documenting all elements of the commissioning process

Warranty Phase

Coordinate and supervise required opposite season or deferred testing and deficiency corrections and provide the final testing documentation for the Commissioning Record and Operation and Maintenance manuals.

Return to the site at 10 months into the 12-month warranty period and review with facility staff the current building operation and the condition of outstanding issues related to the original and seasonal commissioning. Also interview facility staff and identify problems or concerns they have with operating the building as originally intended. Make suggestions for improvements and for recording these changes in the Operation and Maintenance manuals. Identify areas that may come under warranty or under the original construction contract. Assist facility staff in developing reports and documents and requests for services to remedy outstanding problems.

Project Risks

CAI has identified the following common risk areas that may affect successful project

completion and our proposed mitigation/resolution if this should occur:

COMMON RISKS RISK MITIGATION TECHNIQUES Schedule risk Detailed planning, to build in quality throughout; adroit execution

management to move the roadblocks, equipment issues etc. off the critical path when they happen. Schedule as predictive tool, reviewed each shift, with up to date short term look ahead and coordination meetings.

Construction quality risk You get what you inspect, not what you expect – use construction in-process inspections, which promotes rapid turnover of complete systems meeting specifications.

Automation integration risk Well defined functional requirements, thoroughly reviewed, integrator simulator testing, automation checkout, and workable change management programs.

Start-up risk Start-up well planned, with sufficient allowance for setting to work, shakedown/ troubleshooting, and initial functional testing; lock-out/tagout; valve line-ups defined, start-up procedures; daily briefings;

Change in approach risk Full buy-in from all customer groups to a well-understood commissioning strategy. Attention to planning. New team members are not allowed to deviate from the approved plans.

Change management risk Create simple but effective change management system that everyone can easily use. Otherwise it gets bypassed. Use IT tools to maintain control over designs, update linked documents, and track implementation and closeout of each change.

Resource availability risk Planning and forecasting, and using resource suppliers who can provide a flexible and capable solution on very short notice.

Shortfalls in integrating the people, process, and physical plant to achieve full scale operations

Understand all that must be done – from process control strategy to equipment maintenance programs to personnel qualification and training requirements. Use IT tools to share common knowledge, link related tasks, maintain information up to date, and provide comprehensive status reporting.

Project Controls

CAI utilizes internal company procedures for project management, project controls and quality

of deliverables. Details of our approach are described below:

Key points addressed by our project management approach:

Project controls kick off meeting

Cost Management System

Earned Value methodology

Cash flows



Page | 9

Schedule management

Change management (Project Change Notice or PCN)

Risk management

Routine project status reports

Contract completion report

Our quality control is achieved by implementing a standard / defined process for repeatable

activities. Our internal procedures require our people to develop and implement document

control procedures for each applicable project. We have an internal procedure on deliverable

quality, which addresses both repeatable deliverables and “one-off” deliverables.

We implement an internal peer review process ensuring every deliverable is of a high quality

and to the same standard regardless of who performed the work. Our project manager

establishes project-specific quality controls based on this company procedure. Our project

sponsor / executive confirms this program has been developed and effectively implemented.



Page | 10

Safety & Security

CAI has a strong safety culture and standard procedures. Our safety program and team is

structured to verify all work is planned and executed safely, while still allowing for efficient

execution of work. The first and most important task for our team is Safety.

We will carry out this project, and come to work every day, with safety as our top priority. We

have a detailed and comprehensive corporate safety program that includes the following

procedures, but is not limited to:

Safety Program

Site Safety Management (including construction safety)

Job Hazard Analysis

Control of Hazardous Energy Program (LOTO)

Personnel Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)

Confined Space Entry (CSE)

Electrical Safety

Working Aloft & Fall Protection

Construction Environment Safety

Hazard Communication

Incident Reporting & Investigation

We implement a safety program for our project team that reflects our corporate safety

program, project safety expectations, and project specific safety requirements. Our team will

participate in weekly project safety meetings and daily morning safety discussions at team

meetings.
