Project Execution (Mission-Critical Focus)
- Manage day-to-day site operations for data center construction (CSA + MEP).
- Coordinate contractors across critical systems including power, cooling, and fire protection.
- Ensure works align with fast-track schedules typical of hyperscale and colocation builds.
MEP Systems Oversight
- Oversee installation and integration of critical infrastructure:Medium/low voltage power distribution (switchgear, transformers, UPS, generators)Cooling systems (CRAC/CRAH units, chillers, cooling towers)Structured cabling and ICT infrastructure
- Ensure redundancy configurations (N+1, 2N, etc.) are properly implemented.
Standards & Compliance
- Ensure compliance with local regulations and authority requirements (e.g., Singapore's Building and Construction Authority).
- Align construction with industry standards such as Uptime Institute Tier classifications and/or TIA standards.
Environmental, Health and Safety (EHS)
- Enforce strict safety standards due to high-risk electrical and mechanical works.
- Conduct regular audits, risk assessments, and toolbox meetings.
Quality Assurance / Quality Control (QA/QC)
- Ensure all installations meet mission-critical tolerances and specifications.
- Monitor inspections, testing, and turnover processes.
- Manage punch lists and defect rectification.
Testing & Commissioning Support
- Coordinate with commissioning teams for:Factory Acceptance Tests (FAT)Site Acceptance Tests (SAT)Integrated Systems Testing (IST)
- Ensure systems are ready for energization and operational validation.
Schedule & Cost Control
- Track progress against critical milestones (e.g., RFSU - Ready for Service).
- Identify risks to schedule and implement recovery plans.
- Support cost tracking, variation orders, and contractor claims.
Vendor & Contractor Coordination
- Manage general contractors, MEP subcontractors, and equipment vendors.
- Ensure proper sequencing and interface coordination between trades.
Documentation & Handover
- Ensure completion of as-built drawings, O&M manuals, and turnover packages.
- Support smooth transition to operations and facilities teams.
