  • Assess non-conformities against specifications and blueprints, generate reports and notifications regarding defects and deviations, and supervise thorough rectification.
  • Provide recommendations on best practices in construction and propose alternative solutions whenever necessary.
  • Facilitate coordination and participate in meetings with government bodies, consulting teams, contractors, stakeholders, and internal departments.
  • Ensure all drawing records and O&M manuals accurately reflect the as-built facility.
