Commissioning Services for Evolve Student Housing Phase 2 (Apartment Buildings 1, 2, and 3)

San Diego State University is undertaking the Evolve Student Housing Phase 2 project, which involves developing three apartment buildings on its main campus, with a total estimated cost of $427 million. The university is seeking a qualified firm to provide comprehensive commissioning services to ensure that all systems in the new buildings meet the institution’s performance standards and project requirements. The contracted firm’s responsibilities will cover all stages of the project: design, construction, and occupancy. During the design phase, the firm will lead commissioning meetings, establish Owner’s Performance Requirements, oversee quality processes, review design documentation, and develop a Monitoring-Based Commissioning Plan. The construction phase will require the firm to participate in project meetings, monitor schedules, develop and implement testing scripts and checklists, conduct site inspections, review testing reports and training completion, and maintain a log of commissioning issues. In the occupancy phase, the firm will be responsible for developing a continuous commissioning plan and carrying out a thorough post-occupancy and in-warranty review ten months after completion. The contract is expected to span five years, regardless of actual project duration, and all work will take place on the San Diego campus.
