Roles & contributions
  • Project Ownership

    Full lifecycle project ownership

    Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.

Project ownership and delivery context

Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.

Developed the line scope around equipment, pasteurization, utility and electrical interfaces. Used takt, FIFO, OEE and labor modeling to connect equipment choices with production demand, while construction sequencing, safety circuits and startup planning tied the design to live-plant execution.
