Building Commissioning has emerged as the preferred method of ensuring that building systems are installed and operated to provide performance envisioned by their designers.

The objective of commissioning is to provide documented confirmation that a building or a facility fulfills the functional and performance requirements of the building owner, occupants, operators and designers. To reach this goal, it is necessary for the commissioning process to establish and document the owner's criteria for system function, performance, and maintainability; as well as to verify and document compliance with these criteria throughout design, construction, start-up, and the initial period of operation. A commissioned building, therefore, often has lowered operational and maintenance costs and increased overall performance.

EVL has a successful history of providing commissioning services to building owners, as the primary commissioning provider. Getting systems to operate properly involves solving many diverse challenges.  We feel design engineers are uniquely qualified to verify performance of systems, solve problems, and verify the completion of all contractors and subcontractors work in order to deliver a completely functioning system.

At EVL, we believe that it is essential that we use the knowledge from our commissioning work as a feedback loop into our design process.  In doing this we are able to deliver designs that achieve the efficiency and maintainability that building owners expect.

EVL offers Quantity surveying (QS) centered on construction and the management of the costs and budgets of large projects. From the moment a plan is drawn until a large construction project has been completed, EVL's quantity surveyors are involved in all the facets of the survey: control construction cost projects, management and maintenance of the budget, leading to profit and efficiency.
