Support design reviews by evaluating process flow, equipment placement, maintainability, sanitation, safety, quality, and operational efficiency.
Issue project reports and readiness updates on a set cadence to appropriate levels of the organization.
Collaborate with internal and external partners to ensure applicable internal standards, safety expectations, regulatory requirements, and quality standards are incorporated into project execution.
Oversee assigned equipment vendors and technical contractors related to process systems, production equipment, commissioning, and startup activities.
Review design documents, installation plans, startup schedules, and project risks to ensure timelines are met and contingency plans are in place.
Participate in project coordination, pre-installation, commissioning, and startup meetings with vendors and key stakeholders.
Anticipate regional, operational, or technical concerns that could affect equipment installation, startup, or long-term process performance.
Track and document open issues, punch list items, change impacts, vendor deliverables, and corrective actions through completion of assigned project scope.
