The work

Commissioning and cause-and-effect verification.

Commissioning must prove the complete system, not just individual devices. That includes programmed logic, interfaces, indications and connected plant.

ICS can plan the tests, coordinate interfaces, record defects and produce the commissioning records.

Approach

From the reported fault to a tested conclusion.

The exact test plan depends on the system, its condition and the effect of taking equipment out of service. These are the usual stages for this type of work.

01

Plan the evidence

Review the sequence, test prerequisites, interfaces, responsibilities and acceptance records.

02

Witness the complete sequence

Test devices, logic, interfaces, indications, fallbacks and connected plant in a controlled order.

03

Close out the results

Record passes, defects and retests so the final operating position is clear.

What ICS can investigate

Check the complete operating sequence.

  • +Device and circuit operation
  • +System logic and programmed sequences
  • +Third-party interfaces
  • +Power failure and fallback behaviour
  • +Indications, controls and user operation

Outputs

Test results, findings and required work.

The report format and level of detail are agreed before the work starts.

Useful before attendance

  • Approved sequence and cause-and-effect
  • Current drawings and equipment schedules
  • Interface contacts and test prerequisites
  • Existing test sheets and open defects
