Field and project engineering services focus on the installation phase of a project, planning how it will take place, scheduling it, and ensuring it is undertaken correctly. It is the link between the project manager and the site works, helping the trades interpret the design in the way intended, confirming work has been undertaken correctly, and assisting the project manager with the project controls. It takes place on any project that has a site-based element whether it is a new build project, installation of new equipment, refurbishment of existing equipment or decommissioning or dismantling.
It is an activity that touches on almost every aspect of the project including procurement engineering, construction, and commissioning. It takes on a special significance for a nuclear project where provenance and project documentation are extremely important.
Working with other specialists within the business, our field and project engineering services team work on all phases of a project including the implementation, commissioning, and turnover. We coordinate constructability, operability, maintainability, and safety (COMS) review meetings to ensure project documentation is updated in compliance with client procedures and expectations. Our team coordinates with work management, supply chain, trades first line managers, engineering, operations, safety, and other stakeholders to drive the successful implementation of projects.
We also lead technical troubleshooting activities when unexpected conditions present themselves.
