- Verify completion and documentation of required electrical testing (e.g., insulation resistance, continuity, torque, grounding).
- Support commissioning and energization readiness by confirming installations are complete, tested, and compliant.
- Participate in system walkdowns, inspections, and readiness reviews with GC, Owner, and commissioning teams.
- Identify, document, and manage Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), ensuring timely corrective action and closure.
- Support root-cause analysis for recurring or critical quality issues.
- Maintain complete, accurate, and audit-ready quality records, including inspections, test reports, and turnover documentation.
- Coordinate with Project Management, Superintendents, Prefabrication, and Commissioning teams to integrate quality into all activities.
- Provide routine quality reporting, including inspection status, NCR trends, and commissioning readiness.
- Track quality performance metrics such as inspection completion, NCR trends, and rework.
- Identify gaps and implement corrective actions to improve field execution and reduce defects.
- Ensure all activities remain within HES authority, limited to inspection, verification, documentation, and corrective action for electrical scope only.
