1. Project Background & Objective
Client's R&D laboratory and office facility operates highly complex, critical infrastructure supporting sensitive scientific research and corporate operations. To ensure maximum uptime, regulatory compliance, and asset longevity, we require a temporary, highly skilled Maintenance Engineer.
The primary objective of this role is to audit, optimize, and expand our existing Preventative Maintenance (PM) program. This individual will bridge the gap between field maintenance and data systems, converting technical documentation and historical work order data into actionable, detailed maintenance procedures.
2. Scope of Services & Key Responsibilities
The Consultant will work under the direction of the Plant Engineer to execute the following tasks:
Asset & Work Order Audit
Review existing and historical work order data within the Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) to identify procedural gaps.
Cross-reference current asset registries with physical field inventory to ensure critical equipment tags are accurate.
PM Procedure Optimization & Development
Author, revise, and standardize detailed PM job plans and step-by-step procedures for critical utility and facility equipment, including but not limited to:
HVAC Systems: Air Handling Units (AHUs), HEPA filtration loops, and VAV systems.
Exhaust Systems: Lab chemical fume hoods, bio-safety cabinet exhaust fans, and stroboscopic exhaust stacks.
Plant Utilities: Chillers, cooling towers, boilers, and compressed air systems.
High-Purity Utilities: Reverse Osmosis / Deionized Water (RODI) purification and distribution systems.
Integrate safety requirements into all procedures, including Lockout/Tagout (LOTO), Job Hazard Analyses (JHAs), and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) specifications.
Compliance & Quality Integration
Ensure all written procedures comply with local regulatory bodies, Roche global engineering standards, and applicable Good Manufacturing/Laboratory Practices (GxP).
Incorporate clear "pass/fail" criteria, calibration check-points, and data collection parameters within the PM steps to ensure Good Documentation Practices (GDP) can be maintained by executing technicians.
