Major Responsibilities:

Commissioning Planning and System Ownership

• Develop and maintain system-specific commissioning plans, procedures, check sheets, test forms, and turnover requirements for assigned systems.
• Establish system boundaries, system turnover sequence, commissioning logic, temporary utility needs, test prerequisites, and acceptance criteria in alignment with the project schedule.
• Review P&IDs, process flow diagrams, plans, specifications, equipment data sheets, and vendor submittals for commissioning readiness.
• Participate in constructability, design, hazard, and operational readiness reviews.
• Identify commissioning risks, constraints, vendor support, consumables, test equipment, and temporary systems early enough to maintain the CSU schedule.

Construction Completion and Turnover

• Coordinate construction-to-commissioning turnover for assigned systems and confirm turnover packages are complete, accurate, and aligned with system boundaries.
• Perform field walkdowns to verify installation against approved drawings, specifications, and vendor requirements.
• Validate mechanical completion status, including equipment anchors, piping supports, valve installation, and flow direction.
• Review pressure and leak testing, flushing, cleaning, passivation, reinstatement, and preservation records before accepting systems.
• Develop, prioritize, track, and close punch-list items.

Commissioning and Startup Execution

• Lead or support inspections, valve lineups, equipment rotation checks, initial fills, flushing, chemical treatment, balancing, and system energization.
• Coordinate startup and troubleshooting of pumps, heat exchangers, tanks, strainers, filters, water treatment packages, and associated valves and piping.
• Monitor system parameters during startup, compare results with approved acceptance criteria, document test data, and coordinate corrective actions for deficiencies.
• Plan and execute integrated testing with other disciplines.

Major Responsibility (Cont.)

Technical Coordination and Problem Resolution

• Interface with engineering to resolve field conditions, design discrepancies, nonconformances, RFI’s, and commissioning-driven changes.
• Coordinate OEM and supplier representatives for installation verification, startup, testing, troubleshooting, and required documentation.
• Communicate system status, constraints, risks, and recovery actions in daily coordination meetings and commissioning planning sessions.

Documentation, Quality, and Handover

• Maintain complete and accurate commissioning records in project-approved databases and digital turnover systems.
• Prepare and compile mechanical completion documentation, system turnover packages, test records, commissioning reports, and acceptance documentation.
• Confirm redlines, vendor records, spare parts information, and operations and maintenance documentation are captured for handover.
• Support customer walkdowns, system orientation, operational readiness, and final acceptance of assigned systems.
• Ensure open items are clearly documented with ownership, disposition, and completion criteria before system handover.

Safety and Compliance

• Demonstrate visible safety leadership and stop work when conditions are unsafe or prerequisites are not satisfied.
• Plan and execute work in accordance with project ES&H, quality, regulatory, and permit requirements.
• Support lockout/tagout, hazardous energy control, line-breaking, chemical handling, confined space, and stored-energy controls applicable to assigned activities.
