This includes proactive identification and documentation of EPC performance issues, potential claims, schedule impacts, and liquidated damages exposure; coordination of technical field advisory resources; and close interface with EPCs, customers, vendors, and internal stakeholders to ensure safe, compliant, and timely project execution. This is an advisory-only role with no hands‑on installation or operation responsibilities.

• Provide technical advisory support for mechanical installation activities, including foundations, base plates, equipment alignment, auxiliary skids, intake/exhaust systems, and high‑energy piping.
• Support mechanical completion, pre‑commissioning, startup, and commissioning readiness, including lube oil flushing, steam blows, inspections, and first‑fire preparation.
• Advise on startup procedures, functional testing, and integration of Mitsubishi Power equipment with balance‑of‑plant systems.
• Monitor and report EPC performance relative to turbine supply agreement requirements to Mitsubishi Power project and construction management.
• Review and approve extra work authorizations and back charges within delegated authority; track execution quality and escalate approvals as required.

• Assist with insurance coordination and documentation in the event of transportation or site damage.
