GMC Commissioning worked with Alexandria on the Building “C” as a ground up development project. The project includes a 247,000 SF building with 5 levels above ground and additional underground amenities like lab support areas and C&S for future TI’s, including a vivarium. The multistory building is designed for a mix of lab and general office space harvesting an environmentally friendly working concept. In order to achieve these goals, a full tinting electrochromic glass exterior was implemented, which optimizes building energy consumption.
GMC Commissioning provided commissioning of all systems on this project and utilized our SkySpark Analytics System for optimal building efficiency. A team of 4 commissioning professionals supported the project teams in delivering this highly complex facility.

Flexibility with schedule is becoming an ever-present challenge in the commissioning industry and GMC Cx is adept at adapting to meet our clients needs.
