The job mission focuses on: Ensuring compliance with project specifications and standards. Managing a quality management system (planned, controlled, traceable, auditable). Overseeing quality from pre‑construction to closeout

Company Description:

Urcoisa - An International group specialized in architectural design and construction management.

1.    Job Mission 

Ensure, from pre-construction through project closeout, that the works comply with project specifications, applicable standards, and regulatory and contractual requirements through a planned, controlled, traceable, and auditable quality management system; enabling “First Time Right” delivery, reducing rework, and ensuring a seamless handover to the client with complete quality documentation (dossier/turnover package).

1.    Full Project Lifecycle Scope (Full Construction Phases) 

• Pre-Construction: Analysis of specifications, regulatory requirements matrix, definition of the Project Quality Plan (PQP), ITP matrix, checklists, inspection points (HP/WP/IP), and acceptance criteria by discipline.
• Construction: Execution of ITPs, inspections, testing, non-conformance control (NCR), corrective actions (CAR/PAR), recordkeeping, calibrations, and metrological verification; coordination with HSE for work windows and permits.
• Commissioning / Performance Testing: System-specific protocols (MEP/HVAC/Fire Protection/BMS/Elevators), FAT/SAT, TAB, flushing, energizations, integrated testing, and system releases.
• Handover and Closeout: Quality dossier (data book), O&M manuals, warranties, certificates, validated “as-built” drawings, punch lists, closeout audits, and lessons learned. 

2.    Key Responsibilities

• Project Quality Plan (PQP): Develop, implement, and maintain; align ITPs, checklists, and acceptance criteria by discipline.

• QA/QC Governance: Establish submittal workflows, inspection protocols, control point matrices (Hold/Witness/Inspection Points), and document traceability.
• Precast Concrete: Inspection of molds, reinforcement, curing, finishing, and tolerances; review material certificates and strength test results.
• Reinforcement Steel: Review pour certificates, diameters, bends, overlaps, cover, storage; perform sampling and testing when applicable.
• Earthworks / Embankments: Control of materials, Proctor, densities (NTC/ASTM), layers, slopes, and drainage; slope stability monitoring.
• Pile Drilling and Foundations: Record drilling logs, bottom cleaning, slump/temperature, theoretical vs. placed volume, integrity checks (e.g., CSL) when applicable.
• Civil Works / Structures / Retaining Walls: Elements compliant with drawings, tolerances, concrete (f’c), curing, joints, waterproofing, and drainage.
• Survey Control: Axes, elevations, topographic as-builts, and approvals before casting/mounting.
• Roofing and Waterproofing: Substrate preparation, slopes, overlaps, leak tests (flood or electronic), system warranties.
• Carpentry, Interiors, and Finishes: Mock-ups, tolerances, leveling, joints, sealants, adhesion/cleanliness tests, punch lists.
• Façades, Aluminum, Windows, and Metalwork: System certifications, air/water/structural testing (where applicable), seals, fastenings, and anchors.
• Electrical Installations: Duct/tray approvals, continuity and insulation testing (megger), load testing, protection systems, grounding, labeling.
• Mechanical / Plumbing Installations: Hydrostatic/pneumatic testing, flushing, passivation, alignment and rotation of equipment, vibration checks.
• HVAC: Static pressure, duct tightness, functional testing, TAB (balancing), noise and vibration control.
• Fire Protection (FPC): Piping tests (hydraulic), alarms, detectors, fire pumps, integrated testing.
• BMS / Automation: Point verification, control logic, system integration, and communication protocols.
• Equipment (Elevators and Others): FAT/SAT, safety tests, manufacturer and authority certifications.
• NCR / CAR / PAR Management: Record, perform root-cause analysis (5 Whys / Ishikawa), plan corrective/preventive actions, and verify effective closure.
• PPI Audits and Verifications: Annual/monthly plan, checklists, reports, follow-up on findings, and action effectiveness.
• Quality Dossier / Closeout: Compile data book by package/system, test reports, certificates, O&M manuals, warranties, as-builts, and client approvals.
• Cross-Functional Coordination: With PM, Construction, Safety, Procurement, Design, Subcontractors, and Client to ensure “Right First Time” delivery.
• Executive Reporting and Dashboards (Power BI/Excel): QA/QC progress, RFT, NCRs, release milestones, risks, and trends.
