• Coordinate and track MEP‑related inspections with AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) and third‑party inspectors

Safety

• Enforce RO safety policies and OSHA standards on all MEP work activities

• Participate in weekly safety inspections and toolbox talks

• Identify and address unsafe conditions or practices immediately

• Ensure MEP trade partners maintain compliance with site‑specific safety plans, including LOTO (Lock Out/Tag Out), confined space, and hot work protocols

Startup & Commissioning Support

• Assist with MEP system startup activities, functional testing, and commissioning coordination

• Support the MEP Superintendent in managing the turnover of MEP systems to the owner, including documentation and training coordination

• Track and verify completion of commissioning punch list items
