Final Acceptance Fees May Include Local Facility Charge Any Reimbursements GFC Adjustments: Project Scope Change Extra Agreements Other Charges Paid at final acceptance of facilities, prior to meter or side sewer sales. Local Facility Charges are determined for each project. Per the DEA, if the scope or the project changed, General Facility Charges (GFC) will be paid at the rate in effect at the time the fee is paid.

Acceptance Phase. CxA shall perform the following responsibilities prior to and after substantial completion of the Project:
Acceptance Phase. 1. Continue to update schedule and coordination throughout construction with GC and subcontractors
Acceptance Phase. Post Occupancy OPR/BOD/CD Reviews NV5 has significant experience in performing design reviews. The focus of these is to address commissionability, maintenance, and sustainability issues. We present results of our reviews in a professional approach, discuss with design team personnel and pursue alternatives for meeting Design Intent Documents. The process is beneficial toward developing improved contract documents and, for the most part, professional team members appreciate that the focus on maintenance and sequences of operations, for example, leads to better performing systems. We help identify documentation requirements to contractors throughout the project specifications, at the pre-bid meeting, and collaborate with them early in the Construction Phase to ensure that these critical pieces of operational documentation support the successful turnover of the project and can be utilized and available to operators even during the training process, when it is most beneficial. Commissioning Plan We will prepare the Commissioning Plan for the project that will serve as a road map for the commissioning process, addressing the management protocols, schedules, and realistic logistics of the process needed for each school project. It will include identification of the systems to be commissioned, and it will identify the commissioning team members, including those appointed by the District, the design team, and the contractors. The plan will outline the specific roles and responsibilities for each team member, including specific responsibilities for functional performance testing of systems. The plan will address the commissioning documents, including who is responsible for preparing, reviewing, and approving each document. The plan will also include duration and predecessor scheduling data to enable the commissioning project manager and the XXXX’x Project Manager to work together to integrate the commissioning activities into the master project schedule. EXTENT TO WHICH THE GOODS OR SERVICES MEET THE NEEDS Commissioning Specifications The NV5 Team will also prepare commissioning specifications that are specific to each of the four projects. These specifications will describe the commissioning process and establish specific roles and responsibilities for the contractor and subcontractors engaged on the project. The specifications will include general commissioning requirements, in addition to common requirements for each technical division and specific requirements ...
Acceptance Phase. Post Occupancy As construction nears completion, thje Acceptance Phase begins when the commissioning team becomes more involved with verifying systems installation and preparing for functional performance testing. Site visits and commissioning progress meetings become more frequent, and our coordination with the contractors is more intensive. Component Verification Verifying component installation is part of the General Contractor/MEP Coordinator scope of work. This is part of the contractor’s Quality Control process and is normally documented by checklists that are identical or similar to the Pre-Functional Checklists developed by NV5 and executed by the contractors. NV5 will review the contractors’ documentation prior to functional testing. During our Field Observations, we will spot check the contractors’ checklists for accuracy. In the event we find a large number of the documents we review are inaccurate, we will return all the checklists to the contractor for correction. We will review a larger sample of the corrected checklists for accuracy. We generally review these checklists during scheduled Field Observation visits. EXTENT TO WHICH THE GOODS OR SERVICES MEET THE NEEDS Equipment Startup Control Systems Verification As the equipment and systems installation process nears completion, the equipment must be started up. Proper startup is essential to system success because improper startup may damage the equipment or cause injury to construction personnel. It is imperative that the manufacturer’s instructions be followed and that an authorized manufacturer’s representative is present during initial startup. Often this requirement is part of the manufacturer’s warranty and improper startup will void the warranty. As part of our systems testing procedures, NV5 will review the startup plan prepared by the installing contractor. NV5 will also witness startup of critical equipment and systems. The Building Automation System (Direct Digital Controls) is also a key component of systems installation and testing. We will carefully review the controls submittal to ensure the vendor fully understands the control and operating sequences requirements for the systems being controlled. Our review includes ensuring that the system programmer can effectively implement the sequences in the programming and graphics. We have encountered numerous instances where the control submittal simply repeats the sequences included in the construction documents and there is no indic...
Acceptance Phase. Consultant shall perform the following responsibilities after substantial completion of the Project:
Acceptance Phase. A. Review and inspect on a sample basis the testing, adjusting and balancing work that has been carried out by another agency.
Acceptance Phase. A key component of the commissioning process will be the functional testing phase. The Xxxxxx commissioning team will work with the installation contractors to incorporate this task during construction, avoiding delays or costs associated with project completion. • As part of functional testing, each major piece of equipment and systems such as chillers, boilers, air handlers, exhaust fans, emergency generators, lighting system will be tested and observed by Xxxxxx. • Large quantity items, such as VAV boxes, unit ventilators, finned radiation and other terminal equipment, will be tested based on a statistical sampling of the devices. Xxxxxx’x commissioning team will interview facility and maintenance personnel to deter- mine the level of training, testing and documentation necessary. Training agendas will be developed, and selective training sessions will be video recorded by Xxxxxx to ensure critical information is preserved for future use. Operation & Maintenance and Systems Manuals will illustrate proper maintenance and operation of equipment, in addition to standard product data. Xxxxxx will ensure the correct information is provided within these documents. The Systems Manual will articulate the systems concepts and associated operational consideration. It will further describe any energy conservation concepts as well as potential maintenance and opera- tions considerations, and on-going commissioning considerations. Warranty Phase Post construction service will include functional testing of systems that could not be tested during the Acceptance Phase and conducting a 10-month site review that includes a thermal comfort audit as well as a warranty review. The thermal comfort audit accesses the occupants’ space comfort. The warranty review looks at the system operation to deter- mine whether it is being used as intended. Based on the outcome, a plan is developed to provide potential system modifications that may be available. At the end of the survey and plan development, a final Commissioning report will be developed. LEEDTM RELATED COMMISSIONING Xxxxxx has successfully guided project teams through the LEED certification process from conceptual design through post-occupancy. The requirement for documentation and verification of each credit is important to start early in the design process and will continue unabated through construction and final commissioning. During the various project phases, Xxxxxx will ensure that the commissioning process is follo...
