This workshop will focus on existing buildings as the future of commissioning, because of the tremendous potential for energy savings and therefore work for commissioning and energy management professionals.

While few will argue that point in general, how do you effectively make that case to a specific building owner? This half-day session will demonstrate how a skilled commissioning professional, making use of the process described in the ACG Energy Management Guideline, can win more business by clearly communicating the return on investment a building owner sees as a result of energy management projects.

As the industry continues to move toward total building commissioning, building enclosure commissioning is increasingly recognized as a key aspect of ensuring optimum building performance.

In this half-day seminar, building enclosure commissioning experts Fiona Aldous and H. Jay Enck provide a detailed look at the specifics of the process, the underlying building science, and key business aspects of providing the service from staffing considerations to expected costs. A concluding case study will tie all of the elements together to give attendees a solid grasp of the issues and challenges associated with enclosure commissioning and the unique qualifications necessary to consider in its addition to their portfolio of services.
