Standard deverbal nominalization: 'commissioning' is the act or process of the verb 'commission', so the meaning is directly derived.
Etymology
Commissioning comes from Latin parts com- meaning 'together' and mittere meaning 'to send', and it is related to the word mission. A commission was originally the idea of 'sending' someone with a task and power, so commissioning is the formal act of giving a person or thing the authority to start a job or duty.
