Why Retrocommissioning? An Owner’s Perspective
Panelists:
John Lembo, Starwood
Jose Guevara, Cushman & Wakefield of California, Inc.
Matthew W. Berbee, Jet Propulsion Laboratory
Jeffrey S. Keyak, Kaiser Permanente

Facilitated by Amanda Potter, PECI



For building owners and facility managers, there is often no better source of information than peers and colleagues. In this session, hear first-hand accounts of the retrocommissioning process and pose questions to owners representing commercial real estate, lodging, hospitals and other mission critical facilities. Gain a better understanding of how retrocommissioning can maximize the value of property investments by lowering utility bills and increasing NOI, extending equipment life, improving worker productivity and tenant retention, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions while cultivating a positive public image for environmental stewardship.

Panelists will address these, and other, important considerations:
• Making the business case for implementing operational improvements
• How to fund retrocommissioning projects
• Planning for persistence and ongoing commissioning to ensure
  the benefits last

Bring your own experiences and questions about implementing retrocommissioning for this interactive discussion.
