About the Role
In this role, you independently commission defined BMS packages to Imperium standards. You configure controllers and front-ends (Trend IQVision and Tridium Niagara 4.15), prove performance through functional tests and trend data, and deliver complete, traceable evidence for handover. Your work improves reliability, comfort, and energy outcomes while reducing rework.
Responsibilities
- Deliver end-to-end commissioning for allocated systems, producing a complete Site Acceptance Test section with clean evidence and sign-offs.
- Configure and prove front-end and controller logic in IQVision and Niagara to Imperium naming and unit conventions, with alarms, schedules, trends, graphics, and verified backups.
- Test and document communications / network segments, resolving addressing and termination issues and issuing testing documentation.
- Execute functional testing and initial tuning, demonstrating stable control with before/after trend evidence.
- Keep documentation aligned with reality, updating points lists, cable schedules, redlines, and the Description of Operations as commissioning proceeds.
- Plan and run inspection and testing for your scope, closing non-conformance reports quickly and integrating results into the operation and maintenance pack.
- Engage stakeholders for your package, capture acceptance criteria, and run witness tests to confirm outcomes.
- Build, back up, and restore a small Niagara 4.15 station and a Trend IQVision package.
- Apply Imperium naming and unit conventions; configure alarms, schedules, histories, and graphics.
- Commission one controller ring or trunk; fix duplicate identifiers and termination issues; set and verify time synchronisation; attach screenshots or logs as evidence.
- Run point-to-point and functional tests; verify interlocks and safeties; tune simple proportional–integral–derivative loops with recorded parameters and trend plots.
- Install and terminate small cable runs to drawings; verify separation between separated extra-low voltage and low voltage; complete insulation resistance and continuity records.
- Maintain a concise requirements traceability matrix for your scope linking stakeholder need → Description of Operations or graphics → test case → evidence.
- Compile a complete Site Acceptance Test section for your package, including photographs, readings with units, backups, and witness signatures.
- Keep abreast of industry trends, technologies, and best practices.
- Maintain high standards of professional and ethical conduct, adhering to the Engineering Council’s ethical principles.
- Support a workplace culture of safety, continuous improvement, and environmental responsibility.
