Commissioning Services for New and Existing Buildings
Full Commissioning for New Construction and Retrofit Projects
A.L.M. Consulting Engineers offers comprehensive commissioning and retro-commissioning services to ensure that building systems operate efficiently, reliably, and in alignment with the original design intent. Whether for a new build or an existing structure, our team provides hands-on project oversight, performance verification, and actionable recommendations to optimize building performance.
Commissioning for New Construction
We work closely with project teams to develop clear commissioning guidelines, specifications, and a detailed commissioning plan. Our services include:
- Oversight of system installation and functional testing
- Review of mechanical, HVAC, and plumbing systems
- On-site verification of system operation
- Analysis of results with clear documentation
- Identification of performance gaps and corrective action planning
Our proactive approach reduces costly change orders, improves occupant comfort, and helps extend the life of building systems.
Retro-Commissioning (RCx)
For existing buildings, retro-commissioning improves the way equipment and systems function together. Through an initial site investigation, we analyze mechanical system performance and energy use to uncover inefficiencies. Services include:
- Energy use evaluation and system diagnostics
- Recommendations for low-cost operational improvements
- Project management and full documentation
- Optimization of existing HVAC and plumbing systems
RCx is ideal for improving system performance, reducing energy costs, and increasing occupant satisfaction—without requiring major capital investment.
Monitoring-Based Commissioning (MBCx)
Our monitoring-based commissioning services add a layer of ongoing insight to traditional commissioning efforts. From initial investigation to implementation, we provide:
- Long-term performance tracking and diagnostics
- Project management and commissioning oversight
- Detailed energy analysis reports
- Identification of future maintenance or upgrade needs
By continuously monitoring system performance, we help prevent energy waste and support better-informed facility management decisions.

What is the difference between commissioning and retro-commissioning?
Commissioning verifies system performance in new construction, while retro-commissioning improves performance in existing buildings.
Commissioning focuses on validating newly installed systems through testing and documentation. Retro-commissioning evaluates operational buildings to identify inefficiencies, correct performance gaps, and optimize system integration without requiring major replacement.
