Description:
Major Responsibilities
- Management of design activities and coordination of workloads for Water projects.
- Plan, coordinate, manage and monitor the review of design deliverables for Water projects produced by the client’s design consultant, including reports, providing feedback to the Design Project Manager regarding progress, key issues and risk.
- Coordinate and manage the design review of the design consultant’s hazard and risk logs.
- Coordinate the response to comments raised on deliverables by the likes of subject matter experts, the design review team, the Independent Checking Engineer, and Independent Safety Assessors.
- Ensure the buildability of the proposed design and suitability of materials.
- Coordinate and visit the jobsite as required, to resolve problems, interpret drawings and documents and provide technical support during the construction phase.
- Coordinate with Contracts Department and Construction teams for supporting the pre-construction procurement process and the checking and assembly of the design documentation for issue as design-build or design-bid-build tender packages as required.
- Review design and engineering studies prepared by local and international engineering firms
- Review changes or deviations in design scope, material quantities, budget or schedule, and assists particularly with defining the change, obtaining accurate estimates of the hours involved, and recommending budget adjustment.
- Take an active role in design reviews, interdisciplinary design reviews and provide comments.
- Perform work that involves conventional design practice but may include complex features such as resolving conflicting design requirements, unsuitability of conventional materials and/or difficult coordination requirements.
- Provide guidance for assured design quality and compliance with the client’s requirements, design guidelines, statutory requirements, local and international codes, standards and norms, and international standards of independent firms that are carrying out the detailed design.
