CE 1.2.3 My area of work
I was assigned as the project engineer, and hence, it was my job to ensure that the project
does not lack in any sector and all the expected outcomes are being delivered. I had to manage
the site and assure that every individual is delivering and accomplishing their sector of jobs. I
developed the schedule of the project and relative activities of the project and executed LDs
(Liquid Damages) on vendors in case of failure to meet the project deadlines. I prepared the
documentation of the regular progress and growth of the project in manner to collect and store
the on-going growth of the project. I was very much aware of the given timelines for the
completion of project as per management instructions, budget allocations, and fulfilling the
customer satisfaction by complying with the standards for Yokogawa product. I started my work
by preparing detailed “Responsibility Assignment Matrix” which clearly defined the
participation and responsibilities of internal departments, vendors and sub contractors in
completing tasks for a project in a given time span. I also made “Project Execution Plan”
demonstrating each and every step, clearly showing the objectives of the project and how they
will be accomplished as per site conditions.
