• Conduct periodic site inspections to verify actual installation status, validate progress claimed by contractors, assess productivity of MEP teams, identify coordination clashes, and ensure execution aligns with approved drawings and method statements.
• Prepare and maintain comprehensive MEP documentation—including material approval logs, equipment schedules, inspection & test plans (ITPs), installation checklists, progress reports, as‑built mark‑ups, and commissioning readiness reports—to support project governance and decision-making.
