Basic Documentation

Ongoing Commissioning
 Document ongoing building systems
maintenance in accordance with FM
Prerequisite 1 for a minimum of one-year.
Provide documentation of in-house resources
and/or contractual services to deliver post-
warranty equipment maintenance.
The GGHC Operations rating systems awards a
sep
arate point (FM3.3) provided that the following
items are implemented.
 Implement ongoing commissioning program
that includes planning, system testing,
performance verification, corrective action
response, ongoing measurement and
documentation to proactively address operating
problems.

Compile and annually review documentation
associated with the Computerized Maintenance
Management System, including actions
triggered by CMMS.
 Crea
te written plan that summarizes the
commissioning cycle for the building by
equipment or building system group. The
ongoing commissioning cycle shall not exceed
24 months. Plan includes a building equipment
list, performance measurement frequency for
each piece of equipment and steps to respond
to deviation from expected performance
parameters.
Building Systems Monitoring
The GGHC Operations rating systems awards a
separate point (FM4.3) provided that the ventilation
systems have permanent, continuous monitoring
systems (for example, building automation system)
that provide feedback on ventilation system
performance.
Annually document alarms that occurred, as well as
responses, and corrective actions taken. Include
analysis of the root cause and short-term and long-
term actions. Alarm Issue Management features of
the building automation system provide the means
to document corrective action taken for building
system alarms.
 Upda
te the Building Operating Plan and
Systems Narrative as necessary to reflect any
changes in the occupancy schedule, equipment
runtime schedule, design setpoints, lighting
levels, or system specifications.
 Track progress of ongoing commissioning
program against a baseline of two years to the
current year.
Do
cumenting annually the percentage of time
desired conditions are delivered in the building on a
floor-area weighted basis can be accomplished by
using a historical report. Figure 7 shows an example
repo
rt indicating when percentage of time operating
conditions were delivered. This type of report can be
generated using historical building operating data
logged by the building automation system.
Staff Education
The GGHC Operations rating systems awards a
separate point (FM4.1) provided that a continuing
education program has been created for facilities
maintenance and operations staff. Each staff
member, whose primary job responsibilities is
building maintenance shall be provides with a
minimum of eight hours per year of continuing
education courses above and beyond licensure
requirements on topics covered in the GGHC
Facilities Management section such as building
systems operations, continuous commissioning,
maintenance, energy and water efficient building
operations and practices. The continuing education
courses will meet the quality standards for
continuing education set by the staff member’s
licensing board.
Building Systems Maintenance
The GGHC Operations rating systems awards a
separate point (FM4.2) provided that the following
items have been documented.
