A DAY IN THE LIFE

• Perform commissioning on mechanical, electrical, controls, and process systems.

• Operate as the bridge between design and construction teams. Coordinate system design with installation between clients, subcontractors, and equipment vendors in a way that ensures the seamless turnover of ARCO's projects.
• Create and execute pre-commissioning equipment checklists to maintain state-of-the-art quality system installations.
• Create and execute commissioning test scripts that verify correct operation of the installed systems.
• Lead project commissioning meetings that accurately set expectations and coordinate schedules for all trades.
• Effectively convey information to onsite superintendents and subcontractors using employee's knowledge of the project's systems.
