The U.S. General Services Administration recognizes the wealth of information
various organizations (including those on the previous pages) have contributed to
the field of commissioning. Reviewing and incorporating industry best practice
was a critical step in preparing this Building Commissioning Guide, and GSA
would like to recognize the following sources that were instrumental in preparing
