Direct the Document Control Clerk on upload package preparation and folder placement; escalate unresolved technical or document control issues to the Document Control Lead or Project Engineering Manager.

Key Deliverables:

Project distribution matrix; approved Microsoft Teams taxonomy for engineering; engineering Master Document Register alignment; approved transmittal packages; Issued for Construction release records; published engineering deliverables in Hexagon SDX with baseline flags; comment resolution matrices; metadata model; archived superseded drawings.

Key Performance Indicators / Service Level Agreements:

Ensure Master Document Register registration within 24 hours (team standard). Engineering internal quality assurance turnaround: recommended three business days. Upload/publish validated engineering deliverables to Hexagon SDX within 48 hours of final internal approval. Ensure engineering deliverables meet naming, versioning and metadata standards prior to publish (target 100 percent compliance). Coordinate to meet 10%, 30%, 60% and 90% milestones and Issued for Bid / Issued for Construction upload schedules.

If in doubt
