Commissioning

RFS has been providing focused MEP/FP commissioning services since 1998. Our commissioning team provides services as third-party commissioning agent, and for select RFS MEP/FP design projects. Our commissioning agents are fluent with all major BAS software platforms, as well as with equipment-level controls, and integration of controls among multiple manufacturers and systems.
