What You'll be Doing;

• Lead the testing and commissioning of all control systems, including BMS, HVAC control systems, lighting control, fire alarm systems, and other automated control systems within the airport infrastructure project.
• Ensure that all control systems are tested, validated, and fully integrated into the larger airport systems, ensuring they meet the design specifications and operational requirements.
• Develop detailed testing and commissioning plans for control systems, in alignment with the overall project schedule and milestones.
• Coordinate with project teams, including electrical, mechanical, and systems engineers, to ensure the smooth execution of testing and commissioning activities.
• Schedule and oversee the activities of commissioning engineers, subcontractors, and vendors involved in the testing and commissioning of control systems.
• Ensure that all control systems are properly integrated with other airport systems (e.g., security, lighting, HVAC) and that they function seamlessly together.
• Verify system performance by conducting functional testing, end-to-end system tests, and system integration tests, ensuring all systems operate as intended.
• Monitor the quality of testing and commissioning activities for control systems, ensuring compliance with relevant technical standards, specifications, and safety requirements.
• Ensure that all systems meet regulatory and airport-specific standards, such as those set by the FAA, ICAO, or other governing bodies.
• Establish and enforce quality control procedures throughout the testing and commissioning process.
• Identify and resolve any issues or deficiencies that arise during testing and commissioning, including control system malfunctions or integration issues.
• Provide technical expertise to troubleshoot and resolve problems quickly and efficiently to avoid project delays.
• Work closely with vendors and contractors to ensure timely solutions for any technical challenges.
• Ensure all testing and commissioning activities are accurately documented, including test results, compliance records, certificates, and reports.
• Maintain detailed logs of commissioning activities, issues, resolutions, and any modifications made during the process.
• Provide regular progress reports on testing and commissioning status, highlighting milestones, risks, and critical issues.
• Act as the primary point of contact for all testing and commissioning matters related to control systems, providing updates and technical support to project stakeholders, including management, clients, and contractors.
• Facilitate communication between internal teams, external vendors, and contractors to ensure coordination of activities and resolve any conflicts.
• Oversee the training of operational staff on the proper use and maintenance of control systems once they are fully commissioned.
