QA/QC & Testing Readiness (Field): Coordinate flushing, cleaning, pressure/leak testing support, equipment alignment access, labeling, torque markings, and safe access for inspection and pre‑functional checks.
Commissioning Support: Sequence field activities to meet pre‑functional, functional, and integrated testing schedules. Ensure trades and vendors have access, power, and safe conditions to execute testing; do not assume commercial testing scope or acceptance authority.
Instrumentation/Controls Access: Coordinate installation access, device locations, pull strings / conduit pathways, and enclosure clearances so I & C vendors can complete terminations and loop checks without rework.
Owner/Inspector Coordination (Field): Schedule field walk‑downs, retain records of field verifications, and route any scope/contract questions to the Project Manager.
