4. Project Approach and Methods
Briefly discuss your approach and techniques proposed for this project.
Managing Projects Simultaneously and Expeditiously: Our approach to managing the 3 projects
simultaneously is described under Team Organization, in the Team and Team organization section of this
proposal. We refer you to this section to avoid repetition.
Inte,rating Cx Requirements with the Design Consultant and Project Team: At its most fundamental
level, building commissioning is performed to confirm and document that a building performs in
accordance with its functional requirements. However, delivering a building that functions per the
Owner's requirements is really the goal of any reputable project team, in its entirety. Emphasizing this
common goal provides significant leverage for integrating Cx into the overall project, such that the
entire team takes ownership of the commissioning process and its' success. Cooperative commissioning
of this type requires the team to support the commissioning plan and specifications, which are logical,
project -specifically designed and enforceable. These must be understood by the team and fairly and
consistently enforced. KBA's first order of CxA business will be to quickly complete the Cx Process Plan
and present it to the team. We suggest that each design team member review and comment on the
plan. A final plan is then developed based on review comments and related negotiation. We suggest that
each design Cx team member then sign the working plan to indicate acceptance and agreement to
follow the process. The construction phase portion of the plan is then fully included in the project's
specifications utilizing commissioning specific specifications, and by integrating commissioning
requirements into related spec sections. Specifications will focus on project -specific clarity and
enforceability, avoiding unnecessary boilerplate. Above all the Cx process, plan and specifications must
be evenly and rigorously enforced, and foster a culture of doing things right the first time, addressing
issues immediately as they arise.
Developing Performance Requirements which are Measurable and Verifiable: Measurable and verifiable
performance requirements are the foundation of any valid Cx process, as measurable and verifiable test
acceptance criteria and repeatable test procedures are what validate the Cx process. A good CxA begins
focusing from the very inception of the Cx process on identifying and documenting what requirements
need to be defined, and immediately begins tracking their development through verification as Cx
acceptance criteria. Defining basic user requirements, such as room temperatures and lighting level are
fairly straightforward and typically a part of any programming agenda; though the CxA's experience in
developing commissioning related project requirements adds value to this process. Often, however, a
greater challenge exists in defining performance metrics for such things as operator and occupant
interface with controls systems and equipment. Developing practical and achievable performance
criteria and metrics requires close collaboration between the project's managers, designers, and the
buildings future user groups and operators. To this collaborative effort, the CxA brings a focus on how
we are going to test and verify the concepts and the skillful use of facilitating documents. Concepts and
high-level goals are documented in the OPR; then developed into quantifiable requirements and specific
implementation strategies, which are developed and documented with the BOD documentation and the
LEED required 'Current Facilities Requirements' and 'Operations & Maintenance Plan'. The final steps in
fine tuning the performance requirements and strategies come while working out detailed control logic
and integration in conjunction with developing repeatable functional testing procedures.
Quality Control: KBA's general philosophy regarding Cx QA/QC focuses on 'doing things right the first
time'. Our Cx Quality Management Pian will be included as an integral part of our overall Cx
Process/Management Plan. We formally and vigilantly identify, track and resolve coordination items
through every step of the process, always trying to anticipate issues in advance. We use work/document
development coordination forms to submit written requests for coordination and information from all
project team members. Design reviews utilize similar documentation. Written responses from the team
Keithly Barber Associates, Inc. Project Approach and Methods — Page 5 of 14
City of Tukwila; Public Safety Plan Projects; Keithly Barber Associates
are required per the Cx Plan and specifications. Issues affecting project quality, process, schedule and
budget are identified and explained for written owner input and direction before issues are checked off
as resolved. Pending issues of this type will be included as a part of all progress reports.
Work products and deliverables are reviewed by one of our Cx Quality Managers, not only prior to
submittal to the client or team, but also on a monthly basis at invoicing time. Invoices will not be
submitted until the Cx Quality Manager confirms that the electronic project file contains sufficient work
to justify the percentage of work being invoiced for. Progress reports identifying issues affecting project
quality, process, schedule and budget will be submitted with each invoice.
CxA work samples are submitted for owner review and team input prior to full on development. The
samples will also be reviewed by the Cx Quality Manager prior to submittal. Similarly, for standard Cx
related work by others, a sample may be requested for CxA review.
Risk Management: Commissioning related risk management involves evaluating systems for potential
sources of negative impact on resiliency, performance and indoor environment, and prioritizing the
application of resources to manage impact probability and severity. Determining the appropriate level of
commissioning effort for the various systems and equipment is one example of an exercise in
commissioning risk management. Risk management is important for building owners because it helps to
protect the returns on their financial investment. Minimization of risk and maximization of value is a
function of a project's commissioning scope. The level of assurance commissioning provides an owner
increases with the level of commissioning effort allowed by the Cx scope of work. KBA likes to address
this from the very earliest scoping efforts via frank and direct communication with the owner and
project team. Project schedule management is heavily intertwined with Cx-related risk management.
Mitigation involves constantly, vigilantly and honestly assessing the effects of any long-term impacts to
the construction schedule on commissioning activities, and collaboratively and creatively working as a
team to overcome challenges and roadblocks. This is something at which our team excels. The fact that
KBA is located so close to the site will facilitate this by cost effectively allowing the CxA, to make
frequent coordination visits to the project site if needed.
5. Team and Team Organization
Team Organization: Our proposed CxA team will be led by Principal/Senior Project Manager Jeremy
Fugere, CCP, LEED AP. Jeremy's public safety project resume dates back to LEED Silver, 60KSF Seattle
Fire Station 10, which houses Seattle's Emergency Operations Center (EOC). Jeremy worked on this
project with SPJ and Weinstein AU, the construction management and architectural firms on Tukwila
Fire Stations 51 & 52. After completing Seattle Fire Station 10 in 2009, he commissioned 4 additional fire
stations, the last 3 of which were completed in 2013. Jeremy is also KBA's Primary CxA for the King
County Children & Family Justice Center and the Snohomish County Courthouse; and he worked on our
Skagit County Community Justice Center CxA team. The Tukwila Justice Center architect, DLR, was the
architect for the Skagit County Community Justice Center, and is working on the King County Children &
Family Justice Center. The scopes of work for all these projects have been similar to the Tukwila Public
Safety Projects CxA Scope of Work. Additionally, in the last 10 years Jeremy has commissioned 13 VRF
projects involving 3 different types of VRF systems, over half of these in the last 5 years. Finally, through
his work in the last 5 years on 3 public safety buildings and 2 data centers, Jeremy is thoroughly familiar
with the role commissioning plays in providing resiliency and risk management for the mission critical
systems associated with the Tukwila public safety buildings.
For the Tukwila Public Safety building projects, we propose Jeremy for the overall Cx Program Leader.
He will also serve as the project -specific Primary CxA for the Justice Center. Because construction
completion for the Justice Center is scheduled to occur at approximately the same time as construction
Keithly Barber Associates, Inc. Team and Team Organization — Page 6 of 14
City of Tukwila; Public Safety Plan Projects; Keithly Barber Associates
completion for Fire Station 52, we propose Senior Commissioning Professional Myra Ferriols, CCP, LEED
AP to work with Jeremy and serve as the project -specific Primary CxA for Fire Station 52. Myra was
KBA's Primary CxA for Skagit County Community Justice Center, and the Stafford Creek Corrections
Center Furniture Factory. She is also working with Jeremy on our King County Children & Family Justice
Center CxA team and has commissioned 3 VRF systems. We propose to have Myra serve as the Primary
CxA for Fire Station 51, as well as 52, in order to provide continuity between two projects, which have
the same project teams and similar systems.
Jeremy and Myra will be supported in the field, as required, by skilled and experienced commissioning
professionals, Patrick Berdick, CCP, and Wes Ellis. Patrick and Wes played major functional testing roles
on our Skagit County Community Justice Center CxA team and will be similarly involved on the King
County Children & Family Justice Center.
Please refer to the Roles & Responsibility Table (below) for a summary of the specific duties we propose
for Jeremy, Myra, Patrick and Wes. Resumes for all 4 of these individuals appear below, as well.

6. Availability and Capacity
Our proposed team has the availability and capacity to commission the project outlined in this RFP. We
can say this with confidence because of the way we determine our project teams. We track employee
workloads and availability, and do not agree to take on projects unless we can confirm that appropriate
key employees and resources are available to satisfy the project schedule. We accomplish this by
tracking the 5 -year monthly workload projection of every employee. When we select an in-house
project team, we match the projected workloads of our employees with the project schedule; in
addition to matching employee experience and professional goals with the project requirements. In
order to provide redundancy and continuity through possible illness and vacations, we have involved
more than one individual for every project. KBA has maintained a relatively consistent backlog with our
approximate present size for the past 12 years. Upon request, we can provide you with a list of client
contacts who will attest to our high level of continuity and performance. If selected for this project, KBA
commits to maintaining adequate availability in the schedules of the proposed team members.
Furthermore, KBA is committed and able to respond rapidly and efficiently to Owner requests and
project needs. Our team is headquartered in our Tukwila office, within exceptionally close proximity to
the project sites.

Appendix: CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
Tukwila Public Safety Projects (Justice Center and Fire Stations 51 & 52)
A. General Assumptions & Clarifications
1. The CxA scope of work is to provide the minimum CxA services and deliverables for compliance
with the RFP and the Washington State Energy Code,
2. The services and deliverables in this proposal are consistent with the commissioning
requirements of the Washington State Energy Code; however, overall compliance with these
codes, including completing the Energy Code Commissioning Checklist, requires services and
deliverables that are often provided by others. Related assumptions for this proposal are:
a. Complete written narrative of how each system and piece of equipment is intended to
operate. Provided by others (such as the AE) and provided to the CxA for inclusion in the
Final Cx Report.
b. Confirmation that TAB has been completed. KBA will perform a field back -check of 10% of
the TAB contractor reported measurements and settings for accuracy; however, reviewing
the full TAB report for compliance with the project documents will be provided by others
(such as the AE). In order to comply with energy code Cx requirements, the review report
(or some other form of written confirmation) must be provided to the CxA for inclusion in
the Final Cx Report.
c. Confirmation that duct leakage testing has been completed per the project requirements.
Provided by the CxA as described under Systems Readiness Review in the Services and
Deliverables section of this proposal.
d. Confirm record documents and training provided per spec & energy code requirements.
Review of training plan and O&M Manuals by CxA, per RFP. Review of any other record
documents provided by others (such as the AE. The CxA will need to receive a letter
verifying completion from the party providing this service, in order to complete the code
required Cx Checklist at the end of the project.
e. Envelope, air barrier testing. Provided by others. KBA will gladly add this to the scope of
work upon request; including design & construction review services, as well as testing in
order to reduce the chances for expensive mitigation required to resolve failed test issues.
If added, the work will be performed by an established associate sub -consultant, to be
approved by the client.
B.
3. Scheduling milestones are per the RFP. Extending the schedule might affect the CxA scope of
work and associated fee.
4. The field review of the systems readiness documentation and witnessing of functional
performance testing (see Review Systems' Readiness & Witness FPTs under Services and,
Deliverables) for each project will occur during a single continuous period occurring on
consecutive workdays. Breaking these activities in to multiple phases may affect the level of
CxA effort and the associated fee.
Slatems and gupment within the CxA Scope of Work, Assumptions & Clarifications. The systems
within the base scope of work and associated CxA fee are in accordance with the RFP. These are
listed below along with related assumptions. Additional Washington State Energy Code (WSEC)
requirements are noted; associated CxA fees are provided separately. It is assumed that the extent

and complexity of the Justice Center systems are consistent with the 100% DD Drawings and
Specifications; that the extent and complexity of the Fire Station 51 systems are consistent with the
60% CD Drawings and 100% DD Specifications; and that the extent and complexity of the Fire Station
52 systems are similar to the 60% CD Drawings and 100% DD Specifications, except that they will
serve a larger (approximately 15 KSF 2 -story) building with the Fire Department Headquarters and a
training room that will serve as backup for the emergency command center:
1. Base Scope of Work.
a. Heating, ventilating, air conditioning & refrigeration systems and controls; including
integration with the fire alarm system
b. Lighting controls.
1) Interior lighting.
a) The extent and complexity of automated daylight dimming control is the minimum
required to satisfy applicable energy code requirements. Additionally, KBA will
confirm basis of design lighting levels per the WSEC. KBA will functionally test 15%
of these zones
b) Interior lighting control in areas without automated daylight dimming control is the
minimum required to satisfy applicable energy code requirements. It will consist of
time of day scheduling and occupancy sensors. Additionally, KBA will confirm basis
of design lighting levels per the WSEC. KBA will functionally test 15% of occupancy
sensors and 15% of time of day zone control.
c) The following functions are not typically energy focused and are not included in this
proposal but may be added upon request: manual on/off control, manual dimming,
and programmable lighting level control (not associated with daylight dimming).
2) Exterior lighting control will consist of time of day scheduling and photo cells.
Additionally, KBA will confirm basis of design lighting levels per the WSEC. KBA will
functionally test 15% of these zones.
c. Service/Domestic/Process water. Hot water heating, pumping, and mixing controls;
including hot water delivery times and metered shutoff times at fixtures
2. WSEC required systems not included in the RFP.
a. Controlled receptacles will be fully commissioned in accordance with the WSEC.
b. Energy metering. Energy metering listed above will be commissioned as a part of the
associated system per the WSEC.
3. Optional backup power transfer test. For mission critical facilities, we're typically asked to
include functional testing of power transfer from normal utility to UPS and backup power, and
back again. We suggest this might be desirable for the Justice Center, with its emergency
command center, and Fire Station 52, with its backup command room. However, because
backup power was not listed in the RFP scope of systems, we've provided separate alternate
pricing.
C. Services and Deliverables Assumptions & Clarifications fall provided separately for each of the 3
projects) Everything described in the RFP is included. Only additional clarification is included here.
1. Cx Process Plan, Initial Cx Kickoff Meeting
Page 2 of 9
Tukwila Public Safety Projects (Justice Center and Fire Stations 51 & 52)
CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
a. Cx Process Plan: Provide a Commissioning Process Plan as required by the Washington State
Energy Code (WSEC). In accordance with these requirements and industry standards, the
plan will describe the commissioning process, team member roles and the equipment and

completed construction documents, as described above.
b. Fire Station 51: Construction documents will be 100% complete and permit issued by the
time the CxA has been hired; therefore, a commissioning coordination review will be
provided to specifications in order to obtain information required to develop the
commissioning specifications, checklists and test procedures. If further information or
clarification is required to complete the commissioning checklists and test procedures, the
CxA shall submit to the project team a commissioning procedures coordination form
describing the information and clarification needed. The coordination form will also
document any of the following issues that may be discovered during the review: issues
pertaining to long-term performance and maintenance; the ability to commission the
components, equipment and systems; and the ability to perform future diagnostics and re-
commissioning. The project team responds to the comments in writing. Design
coordination meetings may be added to the CxA scope of work upon request.
4. Provide Cx Specifications & Coordinating Verbiage: Provide the commissioning specification
sections and verbiage to integrate commissioning into related sections of the specifications.

CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
a. Construction phase Cx kickoff meeting: Lead a construction phase commissioning kickoff
meeting with the Owner, Design Team and Contractors to discuss issues related to the
specified commissioning process.
b. Cx issues log: Provide a commissioning issues log, which shall be maintained and updated on
a regular basis during the entire construction phase commissioning process.
6. CxA Review of Ma.or Product Submittals: Review the submittals of major equipment and
systems included in the commissioning scope of work and provide one back -check of re -
submittals to verify that the review issues were addressed. The focus of the commissioning
review shall be for: 1) compliance with the owner's project requirements and the basis of
design; 2) the ability to commission the components, equipment and systems, and the ability to
perform future diagnostics and re -commissioning; and 3) issues pertaining to long-term
performance and maintenance of components, equipment and systems within the
commissioning scope of work. Written review comments will be provided. This review is
supplemental to, and will be performed concurrently with, the AE review. It shall be the
responsibility of the AE to integrate the CxA comments into the AE review.
7. CxA Site Observations & On -Site Meetings:
a. Site observations: Perform on-site observations during the construction process, in addition
to on-site time required for functional performance testing. These site observations are
supplemental to the construction review performed by the AE team, and are not intended
to fulfill the traditional AE's role of confirming that construction complies with the contract
documents. The primary purpose of these observations will be to identify commissioning
related issues before they are repeated throughout the project; though the incidental
discovery of any MEP systems issues will be reported. A site observation report will be
provided to the owner within three working days after each site visit. All issues discovered
during site observations shall be logged and tracked by KBA until resolved. Resolution of
issues that pertain to AE construction review will be transferred to the Design Team for
resolution management. This proposal includes back -checking logged commissioning issues
one time, after the CxA has received written notification from the Contractor describing
how the issue has been resolved. Additional back -checking needed as a result of a lack of
action by the Contractor is not included in this proposal. Upon receiving written
authorization, this service may be provided on a time and expense basis. Note: the number
of site visits required are not specifically identified. The number of site visits included is
recommended by KBA based on the duration of these projects and may be increased or
decreased with owner preference.
1) Fire Station 51 Site Observations: 4
2) Fire Station 52 Site Observations: 4
3) Justice Center Site Observations: 8
b. On -Site Meetings: Provide construction phase commissioning meetings as follows, in
addition to the kickoff meeting:
1) In conjunction with the on-site observations (Re: previous service item), conduct on-site
commissioning meetings, as needed during the construction process.
2) During periods of installation verification and functional testing, meetings shall be held
in conjunction with commissioning site work as needed.

3) Additional meetings may be attended on a time and expense basis upon written
authorization from the client.
8. Provide Systems Readiness Checklists (SRCs) & Functional Performance Test (FPT) Procedures:
a. Provide SRCs: Provide Systems Readiness Checklists (SRCs) for the contractor to document
that systems are ready for functional testing and turnover to the owner.
b. Provide FPT Procedures: Provide functional performance test (FPT) procedures utilizing
input from the A/E and the Contractor. A description of A/E and Contractor participation in
FPT development shall be included in the Commissioning Plan. The CxA shall include
language in the project specifications that requires the Contractor's participation in
developing the working FPTs.
9. Review Systems' Readiness & Witness FPTs:
a. Review Systems' Readiness: Review the Contractors' installation and systems readiness
prerequisites for functional testing. The CxA's systems readiness review is not intended to
fulfill the traditional AE's role of confirming that construction complies with the contract
documents. The CxA's scope of work pertaining to these activities shall consist of the
following:
1) Review the contractor's startup, testing, and TAB plans. Review completed
documentation and include in the final commissioning report.
2) During one of the CxA site observations, witness duct leakage pressure testing
methodology. Review completed documentation and include in the final commissioning
report in order to comply with related WA Energy Code requirement.
3) Review the contractor's startup, testing, and TAB plans. Review completed
documentation and include them in the final commissioning report
4) Witness the TAB contractor's demonstration of 10% of TAB measurements and settings.
Verify recorded data is within specified tolerances and field measurement, is equivalent
to recorded data ± repeatability of instrumentation. Proposal assumes specified
tolerances are obtainable with standard HVAC TAB equipment. If the actual data
observed in the field is not consistent with the specified acceptance criteria and the
data documented on the contractors TAB forms, the contractor will make corrections
and may be required to demonstrate the data for all similar systems equipment or
components. It is assumed that the AE Team Mechanical Engineer will review the final
TAB Report to confirm that reported readings and settings are per the contract
requirements and provide to the CxA a summary of the review report for inclusion in the
Final Cx Report. A record of the TAB report review is required in order to comply with
WA Energy Code requirements for commissioning.
5) System Readiness Documentation:
a) The CxA creates System Readiness Checklists (SRCs), which document that the
systems and equipment have been provided in accordance with the project
requirements and are ready for functional testing and turnover to the owner and is
ready for functional testing.
b) The Contractor completes and signs the forms and submits them for CxA review.
c) The CxA reviews the Contractor completed forms and performs a field double-check
of the contractor's forms during CxA site observations or at the time of functional
Page 5 of 9
Tukwila Public Safety Projects (Justice Center and Fire Stations 51 & 52)
CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
testing. The sampling rate described below under Witness FPTs, shall apply to field
double-checking SRCs. Acceptable results must be demonstrated for all double-
checked forms. If the actual state of the system, equipment, or component is not
consistent with the state documented in the readiness form, the readiness forms for
all similar systems equipment or components may be double-checked.
b. Witness FPTs: Witness the Contractor's demonstration of the functional performance test
(FPT) procedures. Per specifications provided by KBA, the contractor shall perform the FPTs
on all systems and equipment within the commissioning scope of work; then demonstrate
the FPTs and associated acceptance criteria to the CxA. When identical software
programming is used to control multiple similar systems, the CxA may witness functional
performance testing on a selection of 15% (but at least 5) of the similar equipment and
systems, which shall be chosen by the CxA at the time of the test demonstration. BAS
mapping and trend logging that demonstrates stable real-time performance must be
reviewed for all systems (no sampling). Scheduling and coordinating the Contractor's
participation in functional performance testing shall be the responsibility of the Contractor.
If the functional test demonstrations do not confirm the acceptance criteria, the contractor
will be required to resolve the issues and demonstrate the FPTs again. For systems that
were sampled, the contractor may be required to demonstrate the FPTs all similar systems
equipment or components. The CxA labor and expenses for this additional witnessing will
be provided in accordance with the Assumptions section of this proposal. All issues
discovered during functional testing shall be logged and tracked by KBA until resolved.
10. Additional Testing & Back-Checkin AAllowance: This allowance is 15% of the "Review systems'
readiness" and "Witness FPTs" fee and shall be used to reimburse the CxA for repeating
installation verification, functional performance testing and TAB verification procedures, when
required as a result of a lack of preparation or coordination by the Contractor.
11. Review Contractor Provided Training Plan and 0 & M Manuals:
a. Review the Contractor's owner training plan to confirm compliance with the project
requirements.
b. Provide the training documentation forms to be completed by owner and the General
Contractor's Commissioning Coordinator; completed forms shall be included in the final
commissioning report. Provide supporting specifications verbiage.

13rf yide Systems Manual: Along with the Final Report, provide a Systems Manual. The
Commissioning Systems Manual (CSM) is intended for facilities and operating staff, as well as
future designers of revisions, retrofits & remodels. The document's purpose is to provide
information to help understand and optimally operate the systems within the commissioning
scope of work. While the Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Manuals focus on equipment, the
CSM focuses on the operation of systems, particularly interactions between different equipment
& systems. The Systems Manual is compiled by the CxA but includes documentation provided by
the contractors:
a. Documentation of the owner's design intent and the AE basis of design, as provided by the
owner and AE.
b. Systems one -line schematics (provided to CxA by contractors from the record drawings).

CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
h. Date major equipment placed into continuous operation, date of most recent servicing, and
manufacturer's recommended dates for next servicing (provided to CxA by contractors from
manufacturers, complied by CxA). KBA will provide specification language requiring the
O&M Manuals submitted by the Contractor to include recommended schedule of
maintenance requirements and frequency.
14. Post-Occu•anc Review: Near the end of the warranty period, the Commissioning Authority
shall provide a post -occupancy review as follows: Review trend logs and interview building
operators and occupants to assess whether the systems are still operating in accordance with
the baseline documented during functional performance testing. Assist with identifying
warranty issues. Provide a report including a plan to be followed by the owner to address any
issues.
D. Additional Assumptions & Clarifications
1. The fee is based on the documented assumptions, clarifications and conditions documented in
this appendix. Deviation from these requires review of the Commissioning Authority (CxA)
scope of work and fee proposal. These assumptions, clarifications and conditions shall become
a part of the CxA contract.
2. Factors that affect the level of construction phase commissioning effort may be developed
during design phase. It is therefore, recognized that the construction phase CxA fee will be
reviewed at the end of design phase.
3. This proposal includes services to be provided after closeout of the construction phase. Unless
otherwise directed by the owner in writing, KBA shall invoice for post -construction work as it is
completed. In some cases, this may occur a year or more after substantial completion.
Payment for post -construction work is due upon receipt of the invoice. It is the responsibility of
the client to provide alternative direction to KBA if this invoicing procedure is not consistent
with the client's policy for post -construction funding and payment.
4. If applicable, notification to suspend work shall be provided by the client to KBA in writing. The
client shall be liable for reimbursement of work performed prior to such notification.
5. The Commissioning Plan and Specifications provided by KBA will clearly specify that the
Contractor is responsible for providing written verification that the systems they provide will
pass the installation verification, functional performance testing and TAB verification acceptance
criteria, as defined within the project specifications and commissioning plan. These
specifications also include language making the Contractor responsible for Commissioning
Authority costs associated with repeating installation verification, functional performance
testing and TAB verification procedures, when required as a result of a lack of preparation or
coordination by the Contractor. The scope of this proposal includes an allowance for repeating
installation verification, functional performance testing and TAB verification procedures as a
result of a lack of preparation or coordination by the Contractor; it does not provide for
Commissioning Authority time spent beyond this allowance, repeating installation verification,
functional performance testing and TAB verification procedures as a result of a lack of
preparation or coordination by the Contractor. Upon receiving written authorization from the
client, this service may be provided at an additional cost
6. Commissioning services require access to a variety of design and submittal documents from the
owner, design team and various contractors. This includes, but is not limited to, specifications,
drawings, addendums, test forms and product submittals. This proposal is contingent upon
timely submittal of requested documents to KBA by the client or the client's representative. For

CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
design submittal reviews a complete hardcopy set of mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP)
plans & specs will be provided. For construction phase, KBA will be provided with a complete
hardcopy set of conformed specifications and half -sized plans, showing all addenda. If a
conformed set is not produced, "Issued for Construction" documents (or equivalent) will be
provided.
7. The client, or a representative of the client, will provide KBA with updated project schedules.
8. Invoices for services and expenses will be issued monthly for the portion of work completed
during that month.
9. This proposal shall remain valid for 30 days

4. Project Approach and Methods
Briefly discuss your approach and techniques proposed for this project.
Managing Projects Simultaneously and Expeditiously: Our approach to managing the 3 projects
simultaneously is described under Team Organization, in the Team and Team organization section of this
proposal. We refer you to this section to avoid repetition.
Integrating Cx Requirements with the Design Consultant and Proiect Team: At its most fundamental
level, building commissioning is performed to confirm and document that a building performs in
accordance with its functional requirements. However, delivering a building that functions per the
Owner's requirements is really the goal of any reputable project team, in its entirety. Emphasizing this
common goal provides significant leverage for integrating Cx into the overall project, such that the
entire team takes ownership of the commissioning process and its' success. Cooperative commissioning
of this type requires the team to support the commissioning plan and specifications, which are logical,
project -specifically designed and enforceable. These must be understood by the team and fairly and
consistently enforced. KBA's first order of CxA business will be to quickly complete the Cx Process Plan
and present it to the team. We suggest that each design team member review and comment on the
plan. A final plan is then developed based on review comments and related negotiation. We suggest that
each design Cx team member then sign the working plan to indicate acceptance and agreement to
follow the process. The construction phase portion of the plan is then fully included in the project's
specifications utilizing commissioning specific specifications, and by integrating commissioning
requirements into related spec sections. Specifications will focus on project -specific clarity and
enforceability, avoiding unnecessary boilerplate. Above all the Cx process, plan and specifications must
be evenly and rigorously enforced, and foster a culture of doing things right the first time, addressing
issues immediately as they arise.
Developing Performance Requirements which are Measurable and Verifiable: Measurable and verifiable
performance requirements are the foundation of any valid Cx process, as measurable and verifiable test
acceptance criteria and repeatable test procedures are what validate the Cx process. A good CxA begins
focusing from the very inception of the Cx process on identifying and documenting what requirements
need to be defined, and immediately begins tracking their development through verification as Cx
acceptance criteria. Defining basic user requirements, such as room temperatures and lighting level are
fairly straightforward and typically a part of any programming agenda; though the CxA's experience in
developing commissioning related project requirements adds value to this process. Often, however, a
greater challenge exists in defining performance metrics for such things as operator and occupant
interface with controls systems and equipment. Developing practical and achievable performance
criteria and metrics requires close collaboration between the project's managers, designers, and the
buildings future user groups and operators. To this collaborative effort, the CxA brings a focus on how
we are going to test and verify the concepts and the skillful use of facilitating documents. Concepts and
high -levet goals are documented in the OPR; then developed into quantifiable requirements and specific
implementation strategies, which are developed and documented with the BOD documentation and the
LEED required 'Current Facilities Requirements' and 'Operations & Maintenance Plan'. The final steps in
fine tuning the performance requirements and strategies come while working out detailed control logic
and integration in conjunction with developing repeatable functional testing procedures.
Quality Control: KBA's general philosophy regarding Cx QA/QC focuses on 'doing things right the first
time'. Our Cx Quality Management Plan will be included as an integral part of our overall Cx
Process/Management Plan. We formally and vigilantly identify, track and resolve coordination items
through every step of the process, always trying to anticipate issues in advance. We use work/document
development coordination forms to submit written requests for coordination and information from all
project team members. Design reviews utilize similar documentation. Written responses from the team
Keithly Barber Associates, Inc. Project Approach and Methods — Page 5 of 14
City of Tukwila; Public Safety Plan Projects; Keithly Barber Associates
are required per the Cx Plan and specifications. Issues affecting project quality, process, schedule and
budget are identified and explained for written owner input and direction before issues are checked off
as resolved. Pending issues of this type will be included as a part of all progress reports.
Work products and deliverables are reviewed by one of our Cx Quality Managers, not only prior to
submittal to the client or team, but also on a monthly basis at invoicing time. Invoices will not be
submitted until the Cx Quality Manager confirms that the electronic project file contains sufficient work
to justify the percentage of work being invoiced for. Progress reports identifying issues affecting project
quality, process, schedule and budget will be submitted with each invoice.
CxA work samples are submitted for owner review and team input prior to full on development. The
samples will also be reviewed by the Cx Quality Manager prior to submittal. Similarly, for standard Cx
related work by others, a sample may be requested for CxA review.
Risk Management: Commissioning related risk management involves evaluating systems for potential
sources of negative impact on resiliency, performance and indoor environment, and prioritizing the
application of resources to manage impact probability and severity. Determining the appropriate level of
commissioning effort for the various systems and equipment is one example of an exercise in
commissioning risk management. Risk management is important for building owners because it helps to
protect the returns on their financial investment. Minimization of risk and maximization of value is a
function of a project's commissioning scope. The level of assurance commissioning provides an owner
increases with the level of commissioning effort allowed by the Cx scope of work. KBA likes to address
this from the very earliest scoping efforts via frank and direct communication with the owner and
project team. Project schedule management is heavily intertwined with Cx-related risk management.
Mitigation involves constantly, vigilantly and honestly assessing the effects of any long-term impacts to
the construction schedule on commissioning activities, and collaboratively and creatively working as a
team to overcome challenges and roadblocks. This is something at which our team excels. The fact that
KBA is located so close to the site will facilitate this by cost effectively allowing the CxA, to make
frequent coordination visits to the project site if needed.
Team Organization: Our proposed CxA team will be led by Principal/Senior Project Manager Jeremy
Fugere, CCP, LEED AP. Jeremy's public safety project resume dates back to LEED Silver, 60KSF Seattle
Fire Station 10, which houses Seattle's Emergency Operations Center (EOC). Jeremy worked on this
project with SPJ and Weinstein AU, the construction management and architectural firms on Tukwila
Fire Stations 51 & 52. After completing Seattle Fire Station 10 in 2009, he commissioned 4 additional fire
stations, the last 3 of which were completed in 2013. Jeremy is also KBA's Primary CxA for the King
County Children & Family Justice Center and the Snohomish County Courthouse; and he worked on our
Skagit County Community Justice Center CxA team. The Tukwila Justice Center architect, DLR, was the
architect for the Skagit County Community Justice Center, and is working on the King County Children &
Family Justice Center. The scopes of work for all these projects have been similar to the Tukwila Public
Safety Projects CxA Scope of Work. Additionally, in the last 10 years Jeremy has commissioned 13 VRF
projects involving 3 different types of VRF systems, over half of these in the last 5 years. Finally, through
his work in the last 5 years on 3 public safety buildings and 2 data centers, Jeremy is thoroughly familiar
with the role commissioning plays in providing resiliency and risk management for the mission critical
systems associated with the Tukwila public safety buildings.
For the Tukwila Public Safety building projects, we propose Jeremy for the overall Cx Program Leader.
He will also serve as the project -specific Primary CxA for the Justice Center. Because construction
completion for the Justice Center is scheduled to occur at approximately the same time as construction
Keithly Barber Associates, Inc. Team and Team Organization — Page 6 of 14
City of Tukwila; Public Safety Plan Projects; Keithly Barber Associates
completion for Fire Station 52, we propose Senior Commissioning Professional Myra Ferriols, CCP, LEED
AP to work with Jeremy and serve as the project -specific Primary CxA for Fire Station 52. Myra was
KBA's Primary CxA for Skagit County Community Justice Center, and the Stafford Creek Corrections
Center Furniture Factory. She is also working with Jeremy on our King County Children & Family Justice
Center CxA team and has commissioned 3 VRF systems. We propose to have Myra serve as the Primary
CxA for Fire Station 51, as well as 52, in order to provide continuity between two projects, which have
the same project teams and similar systems.
Jeremy and Myra will be supported in the field, as required, by skilled and experienced commissioning
professionals, Patrick Berdick, CCP, and Wes Ellis. Patrick and Wes played major functional testing roles
on our Skagit County Community Justice Center CxA team and will be similarly involved on the King
County Children & Family Justice Center.

Summarized Professional Bio
Since joining KBA in early 2014, Patrick has commissioned projects from Hartford, CT to Honolulu, HI.
Never one to shy away from a challenge, Patrick has been a critical part of KBA's most challenging
projects and is often teamed with Ken Toombs on some of KBA's most important healthcare projects.
Patrick was first introduced to the commissioning process as an electrical technician in the U.S. Nuclear
Navy and from there worked on building automation in the Puget Sound region as a member of Siemens
Building Technologies division. After working closely with commissioning agents on numerous projects,

Summarized Professional Bio
Wes is a 12 year commissioning veteran with experience on many different project types, including
Higher Education, industrial and research facilities. Wes's greatest strength is his ability to grasp
complex building dynamics and the interactions of various building systems. As a result, his skill at
writing and executing functional performance and integrated systems tests is highly valued by the KBA
team and our clients. He has performed commissioning reviews, written commissioning plans and
specifications, performed installation verifications of equipment, observed TAB, completed field
documentations, and written and conducted functional performance tests for many different facility
types; including higher educational, research and biopharmaceutical production, industrial, high
performance, and commercial offices. Wes's commissioning resume includes Gold and Platinum LEED
projects, and a 'Living Building Challenge' project. Prior to commissioning, Wes designed and drafted
building HVAC systems.
Our proposed team has the availability and capacity to commission the project outlined in this RFP. We
can say this with confidence because of the way we determine our project teams. We track employee
workloads and availability, and do not agree to take on projects unless we can confirm that appropriate
key employees and resources are available to satisfy the project schedule. We accomplish this by
tracking the 5 -year monthly workload projection of every employee. When we select an in-house
project team, we match the projected workloads of our employees with the project schedule; in
addition to matching employee experience and professional goals with the project requirements. In
order to provide redundancy and continuity through possible illness and vacations, we have involved
more than one individual for every project. KBA has maintained a relatively consistent backlog with our
approximate present size for the past 12 years. Upon request, we can provide you with a list of client
contacts who will attest to our high level of continuity and performance. If selected for this project, KBA
commits to maintaining adequate availability in the schedules of the proposed team members.
Furthermore, KBA is committed and able to respond rapidly and efficiently to Owner requests and
project needs. Our team is headquartered in our Tukwila office, within exceptionally close proximity to
the project sites.
Our fees for each project are shown in the following schedules of values. The fee is based on the
assumptions, clarifications and conditions documented in the CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications
Appendix attached to this proposal.

Appendix: CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
Tukwila Public Safety Projects (Justice Center and Fire Stations 51 & 52)
A. General Assumptions & Clarifications
1. The CxA scope of work is to provide the minimum CxA services and deliverables for compliance
with the RFP and the Washington State Energy Code.
2. The services and deliverables in this proposal are consistent with the commissioning
requirements of the Washington State Energy Code; however, overall compliance with these
codes, including completing the Energy Code Commissioning Checklist, requires services and
deliverables that are often provided by others. Related assumptions for this proposal are:
a. Complete written narrative of how each system and piece of equipment is intended to
operate. Provided by others (such as the AE) and provided to the CxA for inclusion in the
Final Cx Report.
b. Confirmation that TAB has been completed. KBA will perform a field back -check of 10% of
the TAB contractor reported measurements and settings for accuracy; however, reviewing
the full TAB report for compliance with the project documents will be provided by others
(such as the AE). In order to comply with energy code Cx requirements, the review report
(or some other form of written confirmation) must be provided to the CxA for inclusion in
the Final Cx Report.
c. Confirmation that duct leakage testing has been completed per the project requirements.
Provided by the CxA as described under Systems Readiness Review in the Services and
Deliverables section of this proposal.
d. Confirm record documents and training provided per spec & energy code requirements.
Review of training plan and O&M Manuals by CxA, per RFP. Review of any other record
documents provided by others (such as the AE. The CxA will need to receive a letter
verifying completion from the party providing this service, in order to complete the code
required Cx Checklist at the end of the project.
e. Envelope, air barrier testing. Provided by others. KBA will gladly add this to the scope of
work upon request; including design & construction review services, as well as testing in
order to reduce the chances for expensive mitigation required to resolve failed test issues.
If added, the work will be performed by an established associate sub -consultant, to be
approved by the client.
3. Scheduling milestones are per the RFP. Extending the schedule might affect the CxA scope of
work and associated fee.
4. The field review of the systems readiness documentation and witnessing of functional
performance testing (see Review Systems' Readiness & Witness FPTs under Services and
Deliverables) for each project will occur during a single continuous period occurring on
consecutive workdays. Breaking these activities in to multiple phases may affect the level of
CxA effort and the associated fee.
B. Salgratantiguigment within the CxA Scope of Work. Assumptions & Clarifications. The systems
within the base scope of work and associated CxA fee are in accordance with the RFP. These are
listed below along with related assumptions. Additional Washington State Energy Code (WSEC)
requirements are noted; associated CxA fees are provided separately. It is assumed that the extent

CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
and complexity of the Justice Center systems are consistent with the 100% DD Drawings and
Specifications; that the extent and complexity of the Fire Station 51 systems are consistent with the
60% CD Drawings and 100% DD Specifications; and that the extent and complexity of the Fire Station
52 systems are similar to the 60% CD Drawings and 100% DD Specifications, except that they will
serve a larger (approximately 15 KSF 2 -story) building with the Fire Department Headquarters and a
training room that will serve as backup for the emergency command center:
1. Base Scope of Work.
a. Heating, ventilating, air conditioning & refrigeration systems and controls; including
integration with the fire alarm system
b. Lighting controls.
1) Interior lighting.
a) The extent and complexity of automated daylight dimming control is the minimum
required to satisfy applicable energy code requirements. Additionally, KBA will
confirm basis of design lighting levels per the WSEC. KBA will functionally test 15%
of these zones
b) Interior lighting control in areas without automated daylight dimming control is the
minimum required to satisfy applicable energy code requirements. It will consist of
time of day scheduling and occupancy sensors. Additionally, KBA will confirm basis
of design lighting levels per the WSEC. KBA will functionally test 15% of occupancy
sensors and 15% of time of day zone control.
c) The following functions are not typically energy focused and are not included in this
proposal but may be added upon request: manual on/off control, manual dimming,
and programmable lighting level control (not associated with daylight dimming).
2) Exterior lighting control will consist of time of day scheduling and photo cells.
Additionally, KBA will confirm basis of design lighting levels per the WSEC, KBA will
functionally test 15% of these zones.
c. Service/Domestic/Process water. Hot water heating, pumping, and mixing controls;
including hot water delivery times and metered shutoff times at fixtures
2. WSEC required systems not included in the RFP.
a. Controlled receptacles will be fully commissioned in accordance with the WSEC.
b. Energy metering. Energy metering listed above will be commissioned as a part of the
associated system per the WSEC.
3. Optional backup power transfer test. For mission critical facilities, we're typically asked to
include functional testing of power transfer from normal utility to UPS and backup power, and
back again. We suggest this might be desirable for the Justice Center, with its emergency
command center, and Fire Station 52, with its backup command room. However, because
backup power was not listed in the RFP scope of systems, we've provided separate alternate
pricing.
C. Services and Deliverables Assumptions & Clarifications (all provided separately for each of the 3
projects) Everything described in the RFP is included. Only additional clarification is included here.

supplemental to, and will be performed concurrently with, the AE review. It shall be the
responsibility of the AE to integrate the CxA comments into the AE review.
7. CxA Site Observations & On -Site Meetings:
a. Site observations: Perform on-site observations during the construction process, in addition
to on-site time required for functional performance testing. These site observations are
supplemental to the construction review performed by the AE team, and are not intended
to fulfill the traditional AE's role of confirming that construction complies with the contract
documents. The primary purpose of these observations will be to identify commissioning
related issues before they are repeated throughout the project; though the incidental
discovery of any MEP systems issues will be reported. A site observation report will be
provided to the owner within three working days after each site visit. All issues discovered
during site observations shall be logged and tracked by KBA until resolved. Resolution of
issues that pertain to AE construction review will be transferred to the Design Team for
resolution management. This proposal includes back -checking logged commissioning issues
one time, after the CxA has received written notification from the Contractor describing
how the issue has been resolved. Additional back -checking needed as a result of a lack of
action by the Contractor is not included in this proposal. Upon receiving written
authorization, this service may be provided on a time and expense basis. Note: the number
of site visits required are not specifically identified. The number of site visits included is
recommended by KBA based on the duration of these projects and may be increased or
decreased with owner preference.

3) Additional meetings may be attended on a time and expense basis upon written
authorization from the client.
8. Provide Systems Readiness Checklists (SRCs) & Functional Performance Test fFPT) Procedures:
a. Provide SRCs: Provide Systems Readiness Checklists (SRCS) for the contractor to document
that systems are ready for functional testing and turnover to the owner.
b. Provide FPT Procedures: Provide functional performance test (FPT) procedures utilizing
input from the A/E and the Contractor. A description of A/E and Contractor participation in
FPT development shall be included in the Commissioning Plan. The CxA shall include
language in the project specifications that requires the Contractor's participation in
developing the working FPTs.
9. Review Systems' Readiness & Witness FPTs:
a. Review Systems' Readiness: Review the Contractors' installation and systems readiness
prerequisites for functional testing. The CxA's systems readiness review is not intended to
fulfill the traditional AE's role of confirming that construction complies with the contract
documents. The CxA's scope of work pertaining to these activities shall consist of the
following:
1) Review the contractor's startup, testing, and TAB plans. Review completed
documentation and include in the final commissioning report.
2) During one of the CxA site observations, witness duct leakage pressure testing
methodology. Review completed documentation and include in the final commissioning
report in order to comply with related WA Energy Code requirement.
3) Review the contractor's startup, testing, and TAB plans. Review completed
documentation and include them in the final commissioning report
4) Witness the TAB contractor's demonstration of 1096 of TAB measurements and settings.
Verify recorded data is within specified tolerances and field measurement, is equivalent
to recorded data ± repeatability of instrumentation. Proposal assumes specified
tolerances are obtainable with standard HVAC TAB equipment. If the actual data
observed in the field is not consistent with the specified acceptance criteria and the
data documented on the contractors TAB forms, the contractor will make corrections
and may be required to demonstrate the data for all similar systems equipment or
components. It is assumed that the AE Team Mechanical Engineer will review the final
TAB Report to confirm that reported readings and settings are per the contract
requirements and provide to the CxA a summary of the review report for inclusion in the
Final Cx Report, A record of the TAB report review is required in order to comply with
WA Energy Code requirements for commissioning.
5) System Readiness Documentation:
a) The CxA creates System Readiness Checklists (SRCs), which document that the
systems and equipment have been provided in accordance with the project
requirements and are ready for functional testing and turnover to the owner and is
ready for functional testing.
b) The Contractor completes and signs the forms and submits them for CxA review.
c) The CxA reviews the Contractor completed forms and performs a field double-check
of the contractor's forms during CxA site observations or at the time of functional
Page 5 of 9
Tukwila Public Safety Projects (Justice Center and Fire Stations 51 & 52)
CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
testing. The sampling rate described below under Witness FPTs, shall apply to field
double-checking SRCs. Acceptable results must be demonstrated for all double-
checked forms. If the actual state of the system, equipment, or component is not
consistent with the state documented in the readiness form, the readiness forms for
all similar systems equipment or components may be double-checked.
b. Witness FPTs: Witness the Contractor's demonstration of the functional performance test
(FPT) procedures. Per specifications provided by KBA, the contractor shall perform the FPTs
on all systems and equipment within the commissioning scope of work; then demonstrate
the FPTs and associated acceptance criteria to the CxA. When identical software
programming is used to control multiple similar systems, the CxA may witness functional
performance testing on a selection of 15% (but at least 5) of the similar equipment and
systems, which shall be chosen by the CxA at the time of the test demonstration. BAS
mapping and trend logging that demonstrates stable real-time performance must be
reviewed for all systems (no sampling). Scheduling and coordinating the Contractor's
participation in functional performance testing shall be the responsibility of the Contractor.
If the functional test demonstrations do not confirm the acceptance criteria, the contractor
will be required to resolve the issues and demonstrate the FPTs again. For systems that
were sampled, the contractor may be required to demonstrate the FPTs all similar systems
equipment or components. The CxA labor and expenses for this additional witnessing will
be provided in accordance with the Assumptions section of this proposal. All issues
discovered during functional testing shall be logged and tracked by KBA until resolved.
10. Additional Testing & Back -Checking Allowance: This allowance is 15% of the "Review systems'
readiness" and "Witness FPTs" fee and shall be used to reimburse the CxA for repeating
installation verification, functional performance testing and TAB verification procedures, when
required as a result of a lack of preparation or coordination by the Contractor.
11. Review Contractor Provided Training Plan and 0 & M Manuals:
a. Review the Contractor's owner training plan to confirm compliance with the project
requirements.
b. Provide the training documentation forms to be completed by owner and the General
Contractor's Commissioning Coordinator; completed forms shall be included in the final
commissioning report. Provide supporting specifications verbiage.
c. Review the Contractor provided 0 & M Manuals to confirm compliance with the project
requirements.
12. Provide Final Commissioning Report & Record: After commissioning has been completed,
provide the Final Commissioning Report in compliance with the Washington Energy Code
(WSEC), and the BCA's Essential Attributes of Building Commissioning. One hard copy shall be
provided along with three compact disk (CD) copies.
a. The Final Report shall consist of the following:
1) An executive summary summarizing the overall process as it was performed and the
operating condition of the systems at the time of functional test completion.
2) A completed WSEC Commissioning Checklist
3) A summary of how the project benefited from commissioning.
4) The Commissioning Process Plan & Specifications.

5) The commissioning issues log, which summarizes issues that were discovered during
commissioning and the measures taken to correct them; including uncorrected
operational deficiencies that were accepted by the owner
6) Important operational considerations, if relevant
7) A description and estimated schedule of deferred testing, if relevant.
b. In addition to the final report, The Commissioning Record will be provided as an appendix
on compact disk (CD). Three CD's will be provided. The content of The Commissioning
Record shall be as follows:
1) Reports that document all commissioning field activities as they progressed.
2) Comments and resolutions from commissioning reviews of design documentation and
construction submittals.
3) Documentation of the 0 & M's and training reviews
4) Minutes of commissioning meetings
5) Pre -Functional Testing/Systems Readiness documentation
6) Functional test procedures and results.
c. Post Occupancy/End of Warranty Cx Report — to be submitted separately after the Post
Occupancy/End of Warranty review
d. In compliance with the WSEC, one Preliminary Commissioning (Progress) Report will be
submitted prior to final mechanical, electrical and plumbing inspections, if requested by the
Authority Having Jurisdiction. This report will be a progress version of the following sections
of the Final Commissioning Report: Executive Summary, WSEC Commissioning Checklist,
Issues Log, Deferred Testing Schedule.
13. Provide Systems Manual: Along with the Final Report, provide a Systems Manual. The
Commissioning Systems Manual (CSM) is intended for facilities and operating staff, as well as
future designers of revisions, retrofits & remodels. The document's purpose is to provide
information to help understand and optimally operate the systems within the commissioning
scope of work. While the Operations & Maintenance (O&M) Manuals focus on equipment, the
CSM focuses on the operation of systems, particularly interactions between different equipment
& systems. The Systems Manual is compiled by the CxA but includes documentation provided by
the contractors:
a. Documentation of the owner's design intent and the AE basis of design, as provided by the
owner and AE.
b. Systems one -line schematics (provided to CxA by contractors from the record drawings).
c. Record sequences of operation, control drawings, original setpoints, and component
calibration schedule (provided to CxA by contractors from record controls submittal).
d, Integrated building systems descriptions and special operating instructions (by CxA).
e. Recommended schedule for retesting of commissioned systems (by CxA).
f. Recommended re -calibration schedule (provided to CxA by contractors from manufactures,
complied by CxA).
Re -commissioning FPTs (by CxA).
g.

h. Date major equipment placed into continuous operation, date of most recent servicing, and
manufacturer's recommended dates for next servicing (provided to CxA by contractors from
manufacturers, complied by CxA). KBA will provide specification language requiring the
O&M Manuals submitted by the Contractor to include recommended schedule of
maintenance requirements and frequency.
14. Post -Occupancy Review: Near the end of the warranty period, the Commissioning Authority
shall provide a post -occupancy review as follows: Review trend logs and interview building
operators and occupants to assess whether the systems are still operating in accordance with
the baseline documented during functional performance testing. Assist with identifying
warranty issues. Provide a report including a plan to be followed by the owner to address any
issues.
D. Additional Assumptions & Clarifications
1. The fee is based on the documented assumptions, clarifications and conditions documented in
this appendix. Deviation from these requires review of the Commissioning Authority (CxA)
scope of work and fee proposal. These assumptions, clarifications and conditions shall become
a part of the CxA contract.
2. Factors that affect the level of construction phase commissioning effort may be developed
during design phase. It is therefore, recognized that the construction phase CxA fee will be
reviewed at the end of design phase.
3. This proposal includes services to be provided after closeout of the construction phase. Unless
otherwise directed by the owner in writing, KBA shall invoice for post -construction work as it is
completed. In some cases, this may occur a year or more after substantial completion.
Payment for post -construction work is due upon receipt of the invoice. It is the responsibility of
the client to provide alternative direction to KBA if this invoicing procedure is not consistent
with the client's policy for post -construction funding and payment.
4. If applicable, notification to suspend work shall be provided by the client to KBA in writing. The
client shall be liable for reimbursement of work performed prior to such notification.
5. The Commissioning Plan and Specifications provided by KBA will clearly specify that the
Contractor is responsible for providing written verification that the systems they provide will
pass the installation verification, functional performance testing and TAB verification acceptance
criteria, as defined within the project specifications and commissioning plan. These
specifications also include language making the Contractor responsible for Commissioning
Authority costs associated with repeating installation verification, functional performance
testing and TAB verification procedures, when required as a result of a lack of preparation or
coordination by the Contractor. The scope of this proposal includes an allowance for repeating
installation verification, functional performance testing and TAB verification procedures as a
result of a lack of preparation or coordination by the Contractor; it does not provide for
Commissioning Authority time spent beyond this allowance, repeating installation verification,
functional performance testing and TAB verification procedures as a result of a lack of
preparation or coordination by the Contractor. Upon receiving written authorization from the
client, this service may be provided at an additional cost
6. Commissioning services require access to a variety of design and submittal documents from the
owner, design team and various contractors. This includes, but is not limited to, specifications,
drawings, addendums, test forms and product submittals. This proposal is contingent upon
timely submittal of requested documents to KBA by the client or the client's representative. For

CxA Fee Assumptions & Clarifications, 12/07/2018
design submittal reviews a complete hardcopy set of mechanical, electrical and plumbing (MEP)
plans & specs will be provided. For construction phase, KBA will be provided with a complete
hardcopy set of conformed specifications and half -sized plans, showing all addenda. If a
conformed set is not produced, "Issued for Construction" documents (or equivalent) will be
provided.
7. The client, or a representative of the client, will provide KBA with updated project schedules.
8. Invoices for services and expenses will be issued monthly for the portion of work completed
during that month.
9. This proposal shall remain valid for 30 days
