PRESS RELEASE

ATLANTA – (Oct. 6, 2025) – Pond & Company (“Pond”), an industry leader in engineering, architecture, planning, and construction management services, announced the expansion of its commissioning services through the addition of certified commissioning professionals accredited by the AABC Commissioning Group (ACG).

This strategic investment includes Certified Commissioning Authority (Cx A) credentials. By enhancing in-house capabilities with nationally recognized certification, Pond reinforces its commitment to delivering high-performing facilities that meet or exceed client expectations.

“Commissioning is a critical process that verifies systems and facilities are designed, constructed, and operated in alignment with the owner's project requirements,” said Alex Holbrook, Executive Vice President of Life Sciences & Industrial (LSI) at Pond. “Investing in commissioning certification was a deliberate move to keep our team at the forefront of industry standards and evolving technologies.”

Commissioning is a quality-focused, whole-facility process that spans the full facility life cycle, from programming and design through construction, acceptance, and continued operations. It minimizes costly delays, reduces warranty callbacks, and facilitates a smoother transition to operations. Certified commissioning is particularly essential for clients pursuing sustainability and performance-based goals such as LEED certification or compliance with the Green Building Initiative.

Pond’s enhanced capabilities also position the firm to qualify for projects that require accredited commissioning services, including those recognized by the Department of Energy and the ANSI National Accreditation Board. This enables Pond to support a broader range of public and private sector clients in meeting both regulatory requirements and operational goals.

By integrating certified commissioning expertise, Pond continues to elevate its approach to project value, offering clients confidence that their systems will operate efficiently and perform reliably from day one.
