OUR VISION

A world where industrial projects never fail — because commissioning leadership starts on Day One.
We envision a future where commissioning is not an afterthought, but forms the pillars of every successful project. From planning consents to project approvals, commissioning-first leadership ensures systems function as intended, mitigates risks, and assures evidence-driven outcomes. Delivering world class projects safely, on schedule, and under budget.

OUR MISSION

To drive a paradigm shift in how industrial projects are planned, authorized, and sourced — through adaptive governance, assurance frameworks, world-class commissioning methodologies, and bold advocacy.
At the Industrial Commissioning Association (ICxA), we are committed to elevating system integrtion as a strtegic executive function. We empower professionals, sponsors, and project teams with evidence-based strategies and knowledge systems – enabling them to plan with clarity, execute with confidence, and deliver on expectations with pride.

Start with the end in mind.

    We navigate complexity through education, training, and tools, where more value is the outcome.

  • Global Impact, Local Execution
    Setting global standards, driven by ingenuity, grounded in real-world challenges. Lessons learned for continual improvement.
