One of my pet peeves when it comes to building automation specification is that I want to change the way these control companies deliver their product to our clients. What are the changes I want to make? Well, let me back up several years to when I was responsible for a BAS group in a D-B firm.
I was clueless to the electrical and electronic terminology and building automation design that makes up DDC systems, so I relied on a select few BAS engineers and technicians to check each other's work. However, the process I could do, and I started out focused on learning how we provided BAS services. I began with how we created a scope of work and how we priced up a D-B control job.
