Support technical approvals, regulatory submissions, inspections, permits, and authority coordination activities. Participate in design review meetings, technical workshops, constructability reviews, and multidisciplinary coordination sessions. Review electrical models and clashes using BIM and digital engineering platforms. Support the resolution of interface issues between designers, contractors, utility providers, and project stakeholders. Ensure electrical works comply with project specifications, quality standards, regulatory requirements, and approved inspection and test plans. Review inspection records, testing procedures, commissioning reports, nonconformance records, and quality documentation. Support quality audits, technical reviews, corrective action processes, and contractor performance monitoring. Promote safe working practices throughout electrical design, construction, testing, and commissioning activities. Ensure electrical designs and installations comply with project HSE requirements and airport safety regulations. Support electrical risk assessments, safety reviews, maintainability studies, and constructability assessments. Ensure electrical systems are designed and delivered with operational safety, reliability, resilience, accessibility, and maintainability in mind. Prepare and review technical reports, design assessments, engineering recommendations, progress updates, and technical presentations. Maintain records of design reviews, approvals, inspections, technical queries, and engineering decisions. Provide technical input to project management regarding progress, risks, design issues,
