RE: EAST PARK SHOP CX, BECX, AND ENERGY MODELING QUOTE
Dear Mr. Reeve,
We are delighted at the prospect of providing commissioning (Cx) services for the East Park Shop. The McKinstry
Cx team knows the right practices to keep this project on schedule and within budget while ensuring equipment
performance and design intent is met. McKinstry understands this project to be a LEED Gold 5,600SF sing story
facility with office and shop space that will undergo energy modeling, building envelope commissioning and MEP
commissioning.
Our Cx team will be focused on providing a high level of assurance that the building’s systems are engineered,
installed, and are functioning according to the design intent and optimized to ensure the lowest ongoing
operational and utility cost. This will involve collaboration with the entire project team beginning in the design
development phase, extending through the acceptance phase and continued through post-occupancy seasonal
testing.
We look forward to partnering with you, and we are dedicated to assisting with the delivery of a successful
project. If you have any questions or want to discuss our proposal in more detail, you can reach me at
720.470.7268 or patco@mckinstry.com.
Sincerely,
Patrick Corrigan, CxA │ New Construction Commissioning Program Manager

Commissioning Project Overview
The key to McKinstry’s Cx program approach is the ability to define the desired outcomes of our clients and
provide a process that assures these outcomes will be met. While our experienced and capable staff is the key
ingredient to achieve this, we have put in place a system of quality assurance to provide added measures of
discipline to our project delivery.
Our Cx team takes a detailed, hands-on approach that will create additional value for the City of Fort Collins and
the entire project team. Our Cx team has successfully implemented Cx plans for many projects over the years
and has extensive knowledge of project requirements and objectives. Our desire is to go beyond our typical Cx
approach, be a true team player, and work toward project solutions collaboratively each day we are on-site, and
throughout the entire life of the project. We plan to work hand-in-hand with subcontractors to ensure
performance, and to help troubleshoot and fix problems promptly to ensure we not only deliver a high-
performing, energy-efficient building, but we do not sacrifice our project schedule.
