• Inspect Plumbing works, including water supply, drainage, sanitary fixtures, piping networks, pumps, and associated equipment, ensuring compliance with approved drawings, technical specifications, and installation requirements.
• Coordinate with the Site Execution Department and other engineering disciplines (Civil, Architectural, and Electrical) to ensure proper integration of mechanical installations and identify potential conflicts affecting work quality.
• Conduct internal quality inspections and verify completed mechanical works against approved Inspection and Test Plans (ITPs), quality checklists, Method Statements, and project quality procedures.
• Identify and document non-conforming works, issue Non-Conformance Reports (NCRs), and follow up on corrective actions with the Site Execution Department until satisfactory closure.
• Prepare and submit Inspection Requests (IRs/WIRs) to project consultants, coordinate site inspections, and ensure successful handover and approval of completed mechanical works.
• Follow up on consultants' comments and coordinate with the execution team to ensure timely rectification, re-inspection, and final approval.
• Inspect mechanical materials and equipment delivered to the site, verifying compliance with approved Material Submittals, Material Inspection Requests (MIRs), technical specifications, and project requirements.
• Witness and verify mechanical testing and commissioning activities, including pressure testing, leakage testing, flushing, duct leakage testing, air and water balancing, and system functional testing, as applicable.
• Review testing and commissioning reports, inspection records, equipment certifications, and relevant quality documentation before consultant submission.
• Prepare periodic QA/QC reports covering inspection progress, approved and pending inspection requests, non-conformities, corrective actions, and outstanding consultant comments.
• Maintain accurate and organized QA/QC documentation, including inspection checklists, testing reports, material approvals, NCR logs, and consultant approval records.
• Verify the completion of quality-related snag list items and ensure proper closure of outstanding observations before final handover.
• Reject non-compliant mechanical works during internal inspections and coordinate the required corrective actions before submitting them for consultant approval.
