Which activity is NOT part of Construction Commissioning (Planning) activities?

• A. The owner selects the commissioning authority
• B. Balance systems, document and verify the results
• C. The scope of commissioning is identified
• D. Review system operation and control sequences in detail

Answer: (B)

Planning a Construction Commissioning activity focuses on defining how the process will be performed: establishing who will perform commissioning, outlining the overall scope of what will be commissioned, and reviewing how each system should operate so that you can plan tests and acceptance criteria. Balancing systems, documenting and verifying the results involves actually adjusting equipment, collecting performance data, and confirming that the systems meet the defined criteria. That work happens during testing, balancing, and verification actions, after the plan is set, not during the planning phase. The other activities fit planning because they set governance, scope, and the intended operation needed to design the tests and acceptance criteria.
