The smooth transition into your new facility is only part of the goal.

You also need a facility that is works properly from day one and that you can expect to continue to work as designed for many years. IFS, on your behalf works with Engineers and Commissioning agents as needed to see that each piece of electrical and mechanical equipment is tested to assure you that it is operating as specified. As a company that values Lean principles, IFS builds into the contract and project processes checks to catch issues early in the installation process. Quality by inspection is not efficient. However, it is important to verify that the equipment is ready and will function as designed. The design engineers, testing agencies and contractors will participate in the commissioning process. All test results will be furnished to you. Any issues that are found will be corrected.

Along with the assurance that the equipment is operating as designed. IFS will work with the project team to see that you have all the proper close out documents. The following items are included in your closeout package.

  • Warranties
  • Operating and Maintenance Instructions
  • Parts lists
  • As Built drawings
  • Lien Waivers from all contractors and sub-contractors
  • Insurance certifications
  • Occupancy permits
  • Test results for all equipment and other assemblies required to be tested.

Along with the above, IFS will work with your maintenance staff to see that training is completed and documented for all equipment and systems.
