CSA, making buildings work

Scheduled for 31 March the first ‘Making Buildings Work’ conference has won the backing of both Ashford Environmental Services and Media Control – two of the leading names in commissioning. Organised by the Commissioning Specialists Association (CSA), the event will be taking place at The Crystal in London.

The Crystal Building.

People too often think of commissioning as the final exercise in bringing a building into use, but this is incorrect.  To ensure that its occupants can properly use any building, commissioning needs to be considered at the very outset of the project, with that consideration continuing throughout each stage of the project from concept through design, planning and installation.

Having a broad range of products and services represented at the event  will further help to ensure that an information rich, value for money day is provided for all those who have a vested interested in ensuring the commissioning phase of any build project is delivered correctly and on time. 

To help deliver this event, the CSA has assembled a line-up of speakers from across the construction, building services and commissioning arena which include:

  • Ian Ellis of Siemens Building Technologies
  • Adam Muggleton, the renowned Building Whisperer
  • Remi Suzan of Gratte Brothers
  • Liz Day of CWT Consultants
  • Terry Sharp, Vice President of the BCIA
  • Nick Till of Banyards

CSA chairman, Mark Todd, will chair the concluding panel discussion, whereby delegates will have the opportunity to interact with all the day’s speakers.   

Commenting on the event, Mr Todd said: “this suite of presentations and talks, along with the resulting discussions will provide valuable insight into the correct way to design, plan and install building services to ensure optimum best practice and in turn a successful commissioning phase, leading to a correctly working  building.  I would invite everyone with an interest in good, effective commissioning to book their place.”
