A Commissioning Agent is a professional who ensures that a building's systems and equipment are designed, installed, tested, and operated according to the owner's requirements and industry standards. The Commissioning Agent acts as a third-party quality assurance provider, overseeing the construction process and verifying that the building's systems and equipment are functioning as intended.

Commissioning Agents typically work on large construction projects, such as hospitals, schools, or commercial buildings. They work closely with building owners, architects, engineers, contractors, and subcontractors to ensure that the project meets the owner's requirements for functionality, energy efficiency, and occupant comfort.

Commissioning Agents may also provide ongoing support after the building is occupied, conducting regular performance tests and providing maintenance recommendations to ensure that the building's systems continue to function optimally over time. The Commissioning Agent's goal is to ensure that the building performs as efficiently as possible and that its occupants have a safe, healthy, and comfortable environment
