Review Factory Acceptance Test (FAT) results for major equipment and track closure of open or deferred items with vendors and site teams prior to functional testing. Conduct proactive inspections through L1-L3 phases to confirm proper handling, installation, and readiness of equipment such as switchgear, PDUs, UPS systems, transformers, and generators. Verify that pre-functional and startup testing (L3) are properly executed and documented by trade contractors, ensuring all Lockout/Tagout (LOTO) and energization activities are coordinated with the site Energy Marshal. Validate integration between electrical, mechanical, and control systems, and oversee corrective actions through retesting before handoff to commissioning. Documentation and Reporting Prepare, maintain, and track QA/QC documentation—including inspection reports, checklists, MOPs, and test verification forms—within approved customer platforms. Compile and submit comprehensive commissioning reports and turnover packages that include test results, lessons learned, and as-built documentation. Collaboration and Communication Coordinate daily with project managers, design engineers, contractors, and client representatives to align quality and commissioning activities with project milestones. Participate in commissioning meetings, site walkdowns, and coordination sessions to report progress and identify potential risks or delays.
