Job Description

Immediate W2 contract position available in Richland, Washington.

Estimated Duration: 11+ months

Job description:

Provides technical and support services (and in some instances direct oversight and governance services) to Electrical Enterprise Risk Projects, that will ultimately allow the Project Manager to execute project deliverables with quality, safety, on schedule, within budget, and in the most effective manner possible.

They are considered an authority and expert in their applicable field with supporting field experience and knowledge of best practices and current code requirements. They have, and leverage, skillsets that challenge the quality of the execution strategies and validate readiness of the project to deliver successful execution of projects and/or deliverables that improve project schedules, reduce project cost, and/or reduce or eliminate project risks. They work directly for the CPM Manager or RMM Manager and with Project Managers of Enterprise Risk projects.

Anecdotally, when Enterprise Risk Project(s) are refueling outage critical path(s), this position is leveraged to find ways to save Energy Northwest critical path hours (thousands of dollars), reduce outage durations (millions of dollars), and preclude risks coming to fruition that extend outage duration (tens of millions of dollars).


Principal Accountabilities:

Technical-

Iterative review of key project documentation with the intent to identify, where appropriate, strategies can be refined and/or resources can be applied to improve schedule performance, result in better quality, and/or result in a more efficient use of resources.

Key project documentation includes, but is not limited to: Project Schedule (both work management and project lifecycle schedules) Implementation Means & Methods (both EN and Vendor) Risk Register, Work Orders & Associated Documentation (weld records, ASME Section XI repair and replacement plans, field sketches, etc.) Quality Control Inspections & Hold Points, Test & Commissioning Plans, Clearance Orders & Turnover Strategy, Materials, Tools & Specialty Tooling, Resource Load Boards (including mobilization and demobilization strategy).

Responsible for the remediation of identified WOTs that lack quality, contain incorrect references, introduce error traps, and/or contain poorly written instructions.

Responsible for identifying activities and/or processes that would benefit from a mock-up.
Responsible for providing input and guidance on making said mock-ups effective and impactful.
Responsible for communicating personal Operating Experience and identifying industry and/or similar Operating Experiences associated with project activities. Responsible for developing response strategies that should be considered for each Operating Experience example.
As needed, serve as the ASME PIC for Section XI Repair & Replacement Plan work scope.

Governance – Responsible for maintaining broad knowledge base of associated codes, standards, innovative technologies, technical skillsets (ex: welding, rigging, soldering, etc.), implementation strategies (ex: crew placement, turnovers, etc.), and general industry trends as related to the Enterprise Risk Projects being supported.

Oversight –
Responsible for providing timely and candid feedback to the Project Manager(s), Oversight Manager(s), and Department Management on all aspects of a project strategy, implementation plan, or any other facet that supports successful execution of a project.
As needed, provide oversight of shop or field activities, ensuring activities are progressing against the approved project strategy, providing coaching as needed to preclude changes in the plan.
As needed, serve as the designated person in charge of project activities on the shift opposite of the Project Manager. Such instances may require oversight of crews greater than 50 individuals.

Support –
