October 22, 2001, Independent Commissioning as an Energy Measure and Project Management Tool, Joint GSA-ECube Paper on the commissioning experience of the NOAA lab in Boulder, CO.
Abstract - Experience at a large, recently completed GSA project in Boulder, Colorado found that building performance can be as much a problem of construction and building operation as design, and that the problem can be effectively addressed by establishing independent quality assurance oversight. Includes list of commissioning best practice recommendations from the GSA project manager.15k PDF
