Congratulations to kW Engineering's Commissioning Manager, Joseph Doss, for receiving the prestigious "BCxA Under 40" Recognition from the Building Commissioning Association! This award honors commissioning professionals who lead the industry by making best practices the standard, not the exception, and Joe is a shining example of that. We’re incredibly proud of his dedication to the field. As Lori Kaczka, Senior Director of Facilities at the University of Utah, shared, "Joe Doss exemplified the core principles and mission of a commissioning agent during a very challenging and unique commissioning exercise conducted by the State of Utah on an existing building that had a non-functioning and failing Air Source VRF system from literally the substantial completion date of the building’s construction. The State hired kW Engineering to assess the system’s function after multiple component failures across the system. The commissioning report indicated a system that had effectively not been built to the specifications and needed immediate remediation. Joe Doss, under the direction of Sunny Devani, took on the task of advocating for the Owner groups of the State and the University of Utah. Joe was able to establish trust and confidence of the group throughout the entire process by continually showing his commitment to getting the system functioning as intended not just merely “simply functioning.” He provided accurate and detailed analysis and then educated the team as to the best practices to get the building functioning given the high expectations of the group.  The team assembled included representatives from the Owner’s side, the manufacturer, the design team, CMGC, and sub-contractors. The task was monumental and seemed at times to be a never-ending exercise of investigation and discovery. At times, we took 2 steps forward and at least 3 steps back. Joe was able to navigate the frustrations of the team and remained steady throughout the process as a hands-on source of technical knowledge and support. He worked with the team to identify strategies and create approaches that benefitted the overall mission, serving the best interest of the project and the ongoing operational needs of the occupied building.  Joe’s attention to detail, communication, technical expertise and recommendations were an immense attribute to an, at times contentious process given the magnitude of the issues throughout the 140-sf building. Through his commitment to the process and the relationships he fostered along the way, we would have not accomplished the successful remediation of the system for this high profile building on the UU campus. " We’re proud to have Joe on the kW Engineering team, demonstrating leadership and dedication to Commissioning best practices that truly make an impact! 🙌 #BuildingCommissioning #BCxAUnder40 #kWEngineering #EnergyEfficiency #CommissioningExcellence
