Our people have the courage to be innovative. Their determination and sharp focus enable us to deliver with certainty, time and time again.

We deliver our clients’ visions through leading edge construction solutions across multiple sectors, including Enterprise Data Centres, Advanced Technology & Life Sciences, Hyperscale Data Centres, Fire Protection.

At Mercury, it is our duty to encourage and back our people to realise their vision of themselves. We place them at the heart of what we do, providing challenging opportunities to develop within a great team in a supportive environment that allows them to reach their full potential.

Scope Of The Role

The BIM QA is responsible for the quality assurance and quality control (QA/QC) of 3D models produced for semiconductor tool install projects.

The role operates under the direction of the BIM Manager/BIM Lead and acts as the discipline QA steward, checking modelling and fabrication outputs against project specifications, standards, and client requirements prior to issue, contained in the ‘info pack’ .

The BIM QA works closely with BIM Detailers, Team Leads, and the wider project team to identify, log, track, and close out quality issues, ensuring that fabrication and installation models are accurate, buildable, and compliant before release to site or the fabrication shop. The role is central to Mercury's continuous improvement approach to BIM quality, reducing rework and driving accountability through structured tracking and reporting.

Key Responsibilities Of The Role

Model & Deliverable Quality Checks

• Own BIM QA review of 3D modelling for compliance with project specifications,standards and BEP/LOD requirements, while primary cursory checking responsibility for 2D fabrication deliverables remains with the BIM Lead.
• Check coordinated models and associated deliverables for compliance with piping, ductwork, electrical, instrumentation and support specifications.
• Verify space management, access and maintainability requirements are respected in the model.
• Confirm naming conventions, file structure and documentation align with Mercury BIM standards.
• Support the BIM Lead by identifying QA issues and recommending acceptance or rejection of deliverables ahead of fabrication pack release.

QA/QC Issue Management

• Log all fabrication and installation-related issues through the BIM QA Punch Portal, using the correct issue type (BIM, Site or Fab Shop) and project code.
• Ensure sufficient detail is captured for each issue to enable timely and accurate resolution.
• Track issues through to resolution, engaging designers and detailers as needed for comment and close-out.
• Escalate unresolved or recurring issues at the weekly BIM constraints/QA review meeting. Track and trend metric.

Clash Detection & Model Validation

• Participate in model versus scan reviews to confirm accuracy against asbuilt/ existing conditions.
• Review clash reports produced under the BIM Lead's remit and confirm that reported clashes have been resolved prior to fabrication release.
• Flag discrepancies between design intent and captured field conditions

Reporting & Continuous Improvement

• Maintain and update the BIM QA/QC dashboard and trackers, recording issues by tool, discipline, type and status.
• Provide weekly QA metrics and trend reporting to the BIM Manager/Lead for inclusion in project and leadership reporting.
• Identify recurring issue types or problem areas and recommend process improvements to reduce rework.
• Support lessons-learned reviews and feed findings back into training and SOP updates.

Standards, Compliance & Governance

• Confirm that all deliverables comply with the project BIM Execution Plan, applicable SOPs and project specifications.
• Act as QA/QC steward for BIM execution.
• Carry out cursory quality audits and housekeeping checks across live models and deliverables.
• Support onboarding and training of new BIM team members on QA expectations and checking procedures.

Essential Criteria For The Role

• Strong background in mechanical, electrical, or piping disciplines with practical trade or engineering experience (e.g. pipefitting, electrical installation).
• Experience checking 3D models and 2D fabrication drawings against specifications.
• Working knowledge of Revit, Navisworks, iConstruct and/or CADWorx.
• Familiarity with BIM360/ACC issue tracking and QA/QC dashboard tools (e.g. Power BI).
• Understanding of clash detection processes and model versus scan validation.
• Strong attention to detail with the ability to identify discrepancies and constructability risks.
• Clear communication skills to provide feedback and drive resolution across design and delivery teams.
• Semiconductor, pharmaceutical or advanced manufacturing project experience preferred.
• Strong understanding of project SOP information, specifications, standards and checking procedures required to confirm deliverable compliance.
