- Coordinate documentation across Electrical, Mechanical, CSA, QA/QC and Commissioning disciplines.
- Work closely with subcontractors and vendors to ensure documentation is submitted accurately and in accordance with project requirements.
- Monitor outstanding documentation and proactively follow up with relevant stakeholders to prevent delays.
