Participate in Factory Acceptance Tests (FATs) and verify equipment performance against design and contract requirements
Track delivery schedules for long-lead items, manage punch lists, and verify installation alignment, clearances, and load-out requirements
Develop and maintain a Master Test Index and coordinate all testing—from compartment air tests and alignment checks to dredge system performance trials
Author and review test procedures covering dockside and sea trial events: propulsion, electrical load balance, control system integration, drag arm operation, bottom door sequencing, and pump-ashore performance
Monitor and document system readiness using TMMG’s standardized Test Readiness Review (TRR) process and ensure all tests align with class, flag, and owner acceptance criteria
Participate in and document Dock Trials, Builder’s Sea Trials, and Dredge Performance Trials, verifying measured results against contract guarantees
Ensure compliance with all ABS, U.S. Coast Guard, and environmental regulations relevant to vessel construction and testing
Monitor ESG’s implementation of environmental controls for dredging equipment—turbidity discharge, overflow management, and wash water containment
Participate in HAZIDs, Job Safety Analyses (JSAs), and risk assessments associated with dredge system testing, high-energy systems, and deck operations
Compile and manage technical documentation for all major systems: equipment manuals, vendor data books, test records, and spares inventories
Support ESG and Dutra in developing operational readiness deliverables, including maintenance plans, spare parts listings, and crew training outlines
Validate system readiness for delivery and assist with commissioning reports, closeout documentation, and warranty tracking post-delivery
