• Deliver systems on time, on budget, meeting or exceeding customer expectations.
• Validate the scope of the project and the budget.
• Determine internal manpower requirements.  Determine external resource requirements, solicit bids from approved sources, and generate purchase orders as required.
• Keep a copy of a Microsoft Project timeline for each project.  The timeline should remain current for both internal and external customers and should track both line builder and final assembly deliverables.
• Use Project Tracking Reports to maintain a current listing of hours remaining for installation, launch support, and correlation.
• Comparison of the original proposals to customer purchase orders.  Changes will be documented, Project Change Requests processed, and issues resolved.
• Capture and compare ‘actual labor’ and ‘budgeted labor’ by project. 
• Document all facets of the project by creating a virtual binder using the OnBase document storage capability.
• Attend customer meetings, and at customer locations, as required.  Attend internal kick-off meetings, and customer kick-off meetings.  Clarify customer responsibilities, expectations and timelines.  Communicate and review progress with the customer as needed.
• After design is completed, conduct a design review with the same individuals that were involved with the initial technical feasibility review. 
• Responsible for the technical direction of the installation.
• Maintain an ‘open actions list’ for all active projects.
• Assist Project Engineers during the installation, as needed.
• Perform the installation when feasible and assist Project Engineers as needed
• Schedule material and resources required during the installation (for example, bodies in station, electrical/PLC assistance, skilled trades, safety training, contracted services, etc.)  Coordinate the installation of the tunnel structure, power drops, network drops, etc.
• Communicate project status
• Provide feedback on hardware and software performance during install.   Use Team Track to document the issues and follow-up with engineering for a resolution.
• Responsible for the identification and successful resolution of all roadblocks to achieving buyoff.
• Provide mentoring, as needed, to the Project Engineers that are working on their projects
• Instill proper methodology and work habits in field teams during all phases of installation.
• This position has a field installation focus but requires participation in all aspects of project activity as directed by the Director of Field Operations. 
• This role will not be managing the projects, but will be responsible for the overall quality of installations.
• Develop documentation required to define proper installation procedures for most applications.
• Mentor new field personnel and will be responsible for identifying training and development needs for the entire installation team.
• Work closely with the Project Manager and Project Engineer to ensure the effective and efficient installation of products as they relate to the project scope and definition.
• Provide key OTJ training and real world experience during the development phase of new Project Engineers and subcontractors:
  • Coordinate PE/subcontractor schedule to be involved in project phases designed to build knowledge and real world experience.
  • Provide training to PE/subcontractor during down time to build skill level where needed.
  • Qualify PE/subcontractor performance.
• Provide technical solutions and expert advice to all field personnel.
• Perform buyoff of systems prior to transferring the project to the Field Services team:
  • Ensure all documentation is in order.
  • Ensure systems are fully functional.
  • Ensure data integrity.
• Assist PMs with integration buyoff to ensure system is setup as completely as possible.
• Attend project kickoffs and other project meetings, as needed.
• Ensure systems are configured correctly by applying technical knowledge and expertise.
• Support and develop documentation as required for products.
• Develop tools to assist project engineering during installation and support.
• Provide training on new tools and applications.
• Support release of Helix and provide support and training to field personnel.

Benefits of Role:

•   Project Coordinator role is designed as a stepping stone between Project Engineering and Project Management.  The Project Coordinator typically will have fewer projects, but will take a much more active role in the on-site project coordination and installation of all the projects. 

Measures of Accountability:

•   Tracks and reports on projects to customer’s requirements.

• Closely follows the progress of installations and ensures that they meet or exceed customer’s requirements. 
• Anticipate problems in the project’s progress, launch support and training and notifies appropriate team members for input and resolution. 
• Monitors the project margins and reports delays in installation or other customer-related issues to Director of Field Operations.
