The MEP Systems Integration Manager (MEP SIM) is the Customer's senior on-site technical integration representative, ensuring that mechanical, electrical and associated infrastructure systems progress from construction completion through energisation, startup and commissioning readiness in an integrated manner. The MEP SIM provides technical oversight of MEP system interfaces and commissioning preparation.
