Our Approach

We commission buildings as fully integrated systems, focusing on how mechanical systems, space pressurization, equipment loads, and occupant comfort interact.

01 — New Construction Commissioning

Complex Buildings, Competent Team.

With decades of commissioning experience, kW delivers high-performance buildings across a wide range of project types and complexities — from 20,000 SF to more than 1.3 million SF, and construction costs between $6M and $160M.

Beyond project scale, our expertise spans complex mechanical and control systems, including central utility plants, HVAC systems, and advanced controls. Through rigorous whole-building commissioning, we ensure performance, efficiency, reliability, and long-term operational success.
  • Integrated process grounded in teamwork, accountability, and outcomes
  • Known for complex mechanical systems and controls
  • Approach tailored to each project — never one size fits all
  • 02 — Retro-Commissioning

    Peak Performance From the Building You Already Own.

    Our RCx process optimizes existing buildings through simple, low-cost operational improvements. We provide actionable, well-defined enhancements with short payback periods and significant energy savings — no equipment replacement required.

    Cost-effective strategies that improve building performance, reduce energy consumption, and extend the life of building systems.

    03 — Monitoring Based Commissioning

    Commissioning That Never Stops Watching.

    Specta, our facility management and monitoring application, gives you a comprehensive view of building performance, indoor environmental quality, occupant comfort, and equipment operations — so your building stays at peak efficiency instead of drifting away from it.

    Continuous monitoringPerformance tracked against expectations, all years.
    Fault detectionIssues surfaced and prioritized before they become waste.
    Persistent savingsVerified at the meter, maintained over time.
    Triage facility operationsDiagnose and solve right from the field.
    Owner's Rep Services

    Your Advocate Through the Entire Construction Process.

    Our responsibility isn't to make contractors happy; it's to ensure the building is completed correctly, with the owner's requirements at the forefront from start to finish.

Sanjiv is a strong leader and has an exceptional ability to support the entire construction team while protecting the ultimate needs of the Owner. Sanjiv is transparent and direct in his dealings with the construction, design, and Ownership teams.
