What is commissioning management?
Commissioning management is about making sure every system in a building works exactly as it should before it’s handed over. At RED, our team manages everything from early checks and pre-commissioning activities through to full testing and final sign-off.
We stay involved from the design stage right through to handover. By working closely with clients, contractors, and design teams, we put clear testing plans in place, manage complex system interactions, and verify that everything meets the agreed performance standards.
We know this stage is key to the long-term success of any building. That’s why our work goes beyond testing. We ensure documentation is complete and knowledge is transferred to the operations team, so they have the confidence to run facilities effectively.
The result is commissioning management that delivers reliable, fully validated systems and a smooth transition from construction into live operation.
RED’s role in commissioning management at White City
For a major residential development in London’s White City, RED delivered full commissioning management to ensure smooth integration of all building services. We coordinated multi-disciplinary teams, oversaw commissioning plans, and verified that systems performed according to design intent.
By managing the process from start to finish, RED safeguarded quality, minimised programme risk, and ensured the complex MEP systems operated efficiently from day one.
