This joint presentation by Rick Aeder and Patty Anderson will provide an understanding of how expanding the utilization and function of the Building Automation System enables the commissioning process to maximize a facility’s energy savings and operating quality for years. The discussion will cover advanced technologies, best practices to support tomorrow’s intelligent design methods, and the associated benefits of these systems. In addition, Aeder and Anderson will highlight the challenges owners face with building and operating green and sustainable buildings. Finally, how the commissioning process is interrelated will be discussed, including how Intelligent Design methods and technologies support commissioning, as well as specific concerns to be aware of for integrated building designs and systems.
