The building commissioning process is interwoven with the overall project
delivery process. This Guide outlines only the necessary steps within the commis-
sioning process, without detailing all of the capital program delivery process
steps. Subsequent pages in this section provide more detail on the building
commissioning process steps, deliverables and specific responsibilities of the
entire Commissioning Team. Additional support in defining GSA project delivery
and commissioning processes can be found through the Project Planning Tools
web site. (http://www.projectplanningtools.org)
