Description
- In line with the County’s vision for sustainability and in an effort to consolidate departments and accommodate future growth, the County of San Joaquin designed and constructed a premier facility in the center of the Stockton. Honored with the 2009 Project of the Year Award from the American Public Works Association, the project also achieved LEED® Gold Certification. Recycled materials and energy efficient systems were built into the facility including day lighting, building automation systems, energy management systems, photovoltaic panels, and energy efficient HVAC. Environmental impacts in fabrication, installation, longevity and post life disposal were all considerations in material selection and the construction process. 3QC not only provided enhanced commissioning for the facility and systems but also developed and is managing a Measurement and Verification program to monitor and control energy usage of the facility to help ensure that the client’s energy efficiency goals are met through the life cycle of the facility.

Description
- To boost efficiency in processing distribution for their West Sacramento facility, the USPS constructed an expansion to the existing facility. 3QC was hired to ensure that all mechanical, electrical and processing equipment systems met USPS design, installation, and functional standards. In addition, a critical project requirement was that all USPS maintenance personnel had the documentation and training to successfully and efficiently operate the facility. 3QC tested all MEP equipment to verify correct functionality and also developed a systems manual for the maintenance and operation staff demonstrating correct operation of all the equipment and including equipment set points for both normal and seasonal operation.
