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.
Aligned skid utilities, electrical supply and process connections, and coordinated supplier startup and operator training. The resulting recovery of approximately 104,000 gallons per year connected separation engineering with usable product yield and reduced loss to the wastewater stream.
