ICxA Technical Committees

About the ICxA Technical Committees

The ICxA Technical Committees are expert working forums established to advance the global Body of Knowledge in Commissioning, Operational Readiness, and Outcome Assurance.

The committees bring together experienced practitioners and technical leaders to contribute practice insight, research, and professional guidance drawn from real-world project delivery.

Their work supports the continuous advancement of the profession by capturing emerging practices, identifying capability gaps, and strengthening the foundations of outcome-focused delivery.

Technical Committee participation is by individual or corporate ICxA members.
