  • Manage NCRs and quality events, ensuring proper registration, follow‑up, and closure.
  • Maintain and update the package register for quality events.
  • Oversee Snag List identification, tracking, and resolution prior to final acceptance of works.
  • Report regularly on site quality performance.

• Risk‑Based Quality Management & Verification

  • Support the implementation of a risk‑based quality approach aligned with Systems Engineering principles.

  • Support the definition and application of the project Gate Model (milestones, deliverables, acceptance criteria).

• Continuous Improvement & Lessons Learned

  • Capture, compile, and share Lessons Learned from site quality activities.
  • Contribute to the optimization of quality processes and surveillance strategies.
  • Collaborate closely with planning, interface, and change control functions.
