SCOPE
.1
The Physical Plant Department at the University of Manitoba has implemented a Quality
Commissioning Program (QCP) that involves the review and verification of construction and
renovation projects to ensure all aspects meet the quality standards set by the University.
.2
The Quality Commissioning Program is a comprehensive process that starts at the pre-design
phase and continues through the post construction phase. Re-commissioning of the
commissioned installations is performed every 5 years. For this reason, the initial commissioning
process and the resulting documentation is critical to ensure that complete and accurate recommissioning can take place in the following years.
.3
Under this contract all electrical systems shall be fully commissioned for compliance to the design
documentation and specified performance. Documentation forms shall be prepared and be
completed for each system and piece of equipment. Satisfactory equipment verification and
performance forms shall be submitted when work is complete and they will be signed off by the
University of Manitoba when accepted. Sample data sheets are attached which provide
representative information sheets for electrical items.
.4
A Commissioning Schedule shall be prepared and be submitted for approval within 90 calendar
days of contract award. This schedule shall cover all commissioning phases and provide a
timeline, milestones, and define points of responsibility.
.5
All equipment supplied to this project will be checked prior to installation to ensure that the
delivered product is as specified before it can be released for installation. An Equipment Form
shall be prepared, completed, and be submitted for each piece of equipment when found to be
satisfactory. See attached sample Equipment Forms at the end of this Section.
.6
All equipment and system installations shall be examined and functionally tested for compliance
with design intent. An Installation Form shall be prepared, completed, and be submitted for each
piece of equipment when found to be satisfactory. See attached sample Installation Forms at the
end of this Section.
.7
Once the supplied equipment has been verified to be in compliance with the design intent, and
the equipment has been properly installed and operation verified, the Commissioning program
moves on to verify equipment and system performance for compliance with design. This portion
of the work requires the submittal of Performance Form when satisfactory performance has
been achieved. See attached sample Performance Forms at the end of this section.
1.2
RESPONSIBILITIES
.1
The Contractor shall:
.1
Provide all coordination required to schedule and coordinate all commissioning activities.
Due to interdependency of the various systems and items of equipment, significant

.3
Prepare all commissioning forms based on the examples provided and modified to suit
the actual equipment involved on this project.
.4
The Contractor will be responsible for the participation of the mechanical and electrical
sub-trades and their respective specialists in providing the services described in the
commissioning documents delivered to the schedule in the commissioning plan.
.5
The Contractor shall prepare a commissioning plan which includes equipment
performance verification forms and a schedule that includes activities and times lines for
all parties involved in the commissioning process.
.6
The commissioning plan shall be reviewed and approved by the Consultant and the
University of Manitoba Commissioning Advocate prior to starting and amended as
required.
.7
Chair a pre-construction meeting with the purpose of defining, scheduling, implementing,
and coordinating the commissioning plan.
.8
Discuss implementation of the commissioning plan of various disciplines.
.9
Distribute copies of the schedule, checklists, and equipment tags to be used during the
inspection, verification, and commissioning phases of the project.
.10
