• Maintain detailed field reports documenting progress, deficiencies, and corrective actions.
• Deficiency Tracking & Quality Control Process
• Establish and maintain a structured deficiency tracking system.
• Categorize issues by severity (safety, functional, schedule impact, compliance).
• Ensure timely closure of punch list items related to BAS/controls installation.
• Verify corrective work is completed properly before acceptance
• Coordination & Contractor Management
• Maintain strong working relationships with BAS subcontractors, electrical contractors, and commissioning agents.
• Provide firm but collaborative field leadership to enforce installation standards.
• Support a solution-driven environment focused on system performance and integration success.
• Adapt to dynamic jobsite conditions while maintaining quality expectations.
