SECURITY SYSTEMS TESTING, VALIDATION, AND COMMISSIONING

What it is

A properly installed security system must function in a way that serves the needs of the client and end users. Protus3 provides security systems testing and validation services as part of a complete security system design and/or as an independent service when systems are designed by others.

How it works

Equipment Start-up

  • Oversee and participate in the start-up of all security electronic equipment
  • Verify and inspect all associated security equipment located in each security room, including rack layouts, terminations, wiring, labeling, equipment rack ventilation, and all other associated requirements

Commissioning and Testing

  • Review the contractor’s testing documentation for each system
  • Test each system individually to verify that all equipment operates according to the plans and specifications and as programmed
  • Verify that all secondary security equipment operates as designed and programmed
  • Provide documentation for each system outlining all items with a pass/fail comment
  • Provide a document for all outstanding punch list items that will need to be corrected before final acceptance
  • Provide recommendations for modifications that may be needed to meet the specifications

Final Acceptance and Close-out

  • Verify that punch list items have been corrected and that components operate as designed
  • Conduct a thorough test of the systems with the owner and designated staff to simulate typical working conditions
  • Provide recommendations for corrections as needed
  • Review as-built documentation, O&M Manuals, warranty information, spare parts, required service parameters, and training documentation
  • Provide a document indicating the systems are performing and operating as designed and programmed
