What is one responsibility of the Commissioning Technician during the start-up phase?

The responsibility of the Commissioning Technician during the start-up phase primarily involves observing and verifying system start-up procedures. This role is crucial because it ensures that all equipment and systems are installed According to the design specifications and manufacturer instructions. The technician checks that all systems operate as intended and that any issues are identified and addressed before the system is fully operational.

Active participation in this phase helps to ensure that the building systems function efficiently and effectively, minimizing the risk of future problems. Furthermore, thorough verification during start-up contributes to the overall commissioning process by laying the groundwork for successful ongoing operations and maintenance.

Additional responsibilities such as creating design documents, planning maintenance schedules, or conducting financial assessments fall outside the specific duties during the start-up phase, which is concentrated on the hands-on verification and validation of operational systems.
