| This is the systematic approach and tools we use to deliver projects. |
Retro Commissioning is the process of evaluating an existing building for the purpose of
improving energy efficiency to reduce carbon footprint, reduce operating costs, and
ultimately improve occupancy comfort. A-Tec has developed a Retro-Commissioning process
that brings true value to our Clients by which critical factors negatively influencing
Facility performance are identified and cost effective alternatives proposed. The aim of
Retro-Commissioning always being to bring about immediate building performance improvements
whilst the building is occupied with minimal or no disruption to operations. |

assurance & coordination of commissioning activities.
- Each stage is controlled to ensure that all of the relevant documentation and testing from
the previous stage has been completed.
