COMMISSIONING AGENT SELECTION (ASR 07-001246). Airport Director requested Airport Commission concurrence with the recommended Board action to select Heery International, Inc. as the primary Commissioning Agent, and Arup as the alternate, to perform Commissioning Agent Services for the Terminal C Project. Responding to Commissioner Welsh, Deputy Airport Director Larry Serafini stated that it was unlikely that Heery International’s location in Portland would bear additional travel costs and noted that the contract had not yet been negotiated. In response to Commissioner Bristol, Airport Director Alan Murphy confirmed that the use of Commissioning Agents is new to the industry and the role is to certify that the systems are performing as specified. Deputy Airport Director Serafini explained that if the Airport sought LEED Certification, the commission must be completed by an independent party under separate contract; Gensler has been instructed to comply with all Title 24 Requirements of the California Code to meet minimum requirements for LEED Certification. Responding to Commissioner Bristol, Deputy Director Serafini confirmed that Commissioning Agent duties were removed from the General Contractor’s scope of work; there are no duplicate duties or costs. Airport Director Murphy responded to Commissioner Bristol stating that the Commissioning Agent is to report directly to the Airport under a direct contract requirement.
On the motion and second Commissioner Welsh and Vice Chair Junor, item 2 was passed unanimously.
