Integration and Commissioning Manager

1. Coordination and Interface Management

• Maintain and own the I&C and SCADA Interface Register for all packages (turbine‑generator packages, balance of plant, switchyard, communication and TNB grid/SCADA).
• Critically review interface definitions, identify gaps, and formally instruct the EPCC Contractor to resolve inconsistencies in line with contractual obligations.
• Lead regular interface meetings (weekly/biweekly) with EPCC Contractor and their Sub Contractors to identify clashes, responsibilities and due dates; issue clear action lists and follow up to closure.
• Ensure alignment of control philosophies, I/O lists, communication architectures and signal lists between turbine suppliers, XD BOP, Anhe and TNB requirements.
• Act as the Employer’s technical authority for cross-system integration matters and interface disputes.

2. Commissioning Assurance and Witnessing

• Review and approve the EPCC Contractor’s commissioning strategy, procedures, and detailed schedules for I&C and SCADA systems.
• Witness key commissioning stages including pre-commissioning, loop checks, functional testing, energisation, synchronisation, and trial operation.
• Verify commissioning readiness prior to critical milestones (energisation, first synchronisation, COD).
• Ensure all systems are tested in accordance with approved procedures and contractual acceptance criteria before certification.

3. Technical Review and Clarification (I&C and SCADA)

• Review key I&C and SCADA deliverables for integration aspects: control philosophies, P&IDs, I/O lists, communication block diagrams, network topology, HMI/SCADA screen list, alarm list and event list.
• Check that interfaces between PLCs/DCS and SCADA (plant SCADA, TNB SCADA / RTU) are consistent in both hardware (ports, cards, cabling) and protocol (IEC 60870‑5‑104, Modbus TCP, IEC 61850, etc.).
• Coordinate resolution of technical queries (TQs) between parties, ensuring responses are technically sound and consistent with contract and TNB standards.
• Ensure proper implementation of interlocks, protections, fail-safe logic, and redundancy requirements.

4. FAT / SAT and Commissioning Coordination

• Prepare or review integrated FAT/SAT procedures for I&C, PLCs, protection interfaces and SCADA (including communication and data point testing to TNB).
• Ensure that all cross-vendor tests are clearly defined, witnessed where required, and documented.
• Support site teams during commissioning and trial runs to troubleshoot integration issues.
• Verify that all integration tests, including TNB SCADA data point verification and telecontrol functionality, are successfully completed.

5. Compliance with TNB and Contract Requirements

• Verify that all I&C and SCADA interfaces comply with TNB grid code, SCADA/telecontrol requirements and project technical specifications.
• Track TNB comments on submissions, coordinate consolidated responses from EPCC Contractor and vendors, and ensure timely re‑submission and approval.
• Oversee compliance with SEDA requirements where applicable (e.g., renewable energy reporting, metering interfaces, performance verification for FiT/REPPA frameworks).
• Support the Employer in securing approvals required for energisation, synchronisation, and commercial operation.

6. Documentation and Configuration Management

• Maintain updated integration drawings and lists (communication architecture, I/O and signal mapping, addressing tables, time synchronisation scheme) reflecting agreed solutions.
• Ensure as‑built I&C and SCADA documentation from the EPCC Contractor and vendors is consistent and complete before takeover (including licenses, passwords, network diagrams and configuration backups).
• Ensure EPCC Contractor meets contractual requirements related to integration, commissioning, and performance guarantees.
• Review and certify completion of commissioning milestones and readiness for Taking-Over Certificate (TOC) and Commercial Operation Date (COD).
• Provide technical input into contractual notices related to delays, non-compliance, or defects in integration and commissioning.
• Maintain detailed records to support claims, variation assessments, and dispute resolution if required.

7. Progress and Risk Management

• Identify integration-related risks (late deliveries, open TNB comments, missing I/O, protocol incompatibility) and highlight them early to SMEC and the Owner with mitigation actions.
• Provide concise weekly updates on I&C/SCADA integration status, key issues and required decisions from Owner/SMEC.
• Provide independent progress assessments to the Employer, including readiness for key milestones and COD.
• Interface with lenders’ technical advisors (LTA), Independent Engineer, and regulators on commissioning status and compliance.
• Promote safe commissioning practices in line with Malaysian regulations and international standards.

Required Qualifications and Experience

• Diploma or Degree in Electrical, Electronics, Control, or related Engineering discipline.
• Minimum 10 years’ experience in I&C / SCADA for power/utility projects.
• Hands‑on experience with PLC/DCS based control systems, plant SCADA and communication protocols (IEC 60870‑5‑104, Modbus TCP/RTU, IEC 61850, DNP3 or similar).
• Proven experience in FAT/SAT, commissioning and troubleshooting of I&C and SCADA systems on site.
• Familiarity with relevant IEC/IEEE/ISA control and SCADA standards and utility grid/SCADA requirements.
• Extensive experience in FAT, SAT, commissioning, and system integration across multi-vendor environments.
• Working knowledge of FIDIC contracts and contractual enforcement in project execution.
