Building Commissioning Talent Solutions
We place commissioning professionals who ensure building systems perform as designed — from design-phase Cx to retro-commissioning and ongoing O&M support.
Common Positions We Fill
Industry Landscape
Commissioning professionals with both ASHRAE Guideline 0 knowledge and hands-on controls experience are extremely rare — firms often compete for the same small pool of qualified CxAs.
The push toward net-zero and LEED/WELL certification has dramatically increased demand for commissioning services, but educational pipelines haven't kept pace.
Retro-commissioning expertise is increasingly valued as building owners seek energy savings without full system replacements, creating a specialized niche with limited supply.
Many experienced Cx professionals are aging out of the workforce, and there are relatively few younger engineers being trained specifically in commissioning disciplines.
Cx roles require cross-discipline knowledge (MEP, controls, building envelope) making it difficult to hire generalist engineers and train them quickly.
