Common use of Commissioning and M&V Plan Clause in Contracts

Commissioning and M&V Plan. (i) DCAMM’s third party commissioning agent will create a commissioning plan and a measurement and verification (M&V) plan to be provided to CONTRACTOR by DCAMM prior to the acceptance of the final Design Deliverable. CONTRACTOR shall provide to DCAMM any comments on the commissioning plan and the M&V plan within thirty (30) days of receipt of each respective plan or as part of final Design Deliverable, whichever is earlier, provided that CONTRACTOR shall have at least ten (10) days to provide such comments. The commissioning plan will: describe how performance testing is to be conducted for each element and total system of the installed New Equipment/Systems; designate the commissioning team and their roles and responsibilities, include the pre-functional and functional performance test forms and commissioning schedule as it relates to the overall Design/Construction Schedule; and provide a description of how system deficiencies will be recorded and corrected before Project closeout. The M&V plan will: describe how the Energy Savings will be verified for the Project in a transparent manner; describe the pre- installation measurement or data logging of energy consumption for each piece of equipment being installed, the recommended permanent metering equipment to be installed, and the approach for post- installation measurement of energy consumption of New Equipment/Systems; and include the calculation methodology for Energy Savings based on measured and stipulated variables.
