About the Company

Global Commissioning

Independent data centre commissioning and verification

Global Commissioning provides independent data centre commissioning and verification services. It delivers Commissioning Management (CxM), Commissioning Agent (CxA), Commissioning Project Management (CxPM), and Modular Certification to certify that critical infrastructure performs as designed. Their process tests systems under real operating conditions, compares outcomes against design intent, and issues evidence-based reports to certify readiness for operation. This creates the assurance layer between construction and operation, reducing handover risk and ensuring uptime. They differentiate themselves by offering a full, independent certification suite focused specifically on data centres (including HV/LV SAP/AP and energy marshalling), not just project coordination, and by delivering verifiable proof that every component is optimized for safe, efficient, and continuous operation. The goal is to move data centres from being merely complete to proven to perform.
