Configuration Manager

You will be assigned to working within the client delivery team taking responsibility for the full completion from current status and as found condition of the delivery status with taking delivery of the robust Configuration Management process application and the final delivered requirements inline with the regulatory and businesses processes across the multiple and diverse class 1, 2 and 3 systems (active and passive) to the final handover preparedness and where appropriate to the point of the final acceptance working group sign- off stages, with no or an informed agreed forward actions plan inline licensee commitments if required.

You will be responsible as the Configuration Manager for a range of key construction projects closures within both the Power and Defence (client) industries.

You will be responsible for the delivery of the key requirements including:

• Register of managed baselines (having been through gap analysis and confirmation process to ensure the correct baselines are being established and managed).
• Baseline owners register (baseline interfacing to support owners accountable for the quality of the content held within the baseline).
• Integration with project area to ensure all baselines can be mapped, understood, and information is accessible, and accurate when required.
• Integration with the project lifecycle delivery package and engineering teams to ensure that the baselines are updated, maintained at project delivery/handover is robust and successful.
• Facilitate, Manage, Mediate, Support and Resolve blockers and issues encountered.
• Show presence, establish working relationships and techniques to gain completion success.
• Provide status and report visibility, of successes, needs and closure strategies.
• Establish, implement and maintain formal audit processes to check that Configuration is being managed internally and externally across the project.
• Establishment and maintain the agreed standards to be followed by the site teams and support the delivery improvements to gain the successes targeted, and report accordingly status and blockers, with were possible providing solutions balanced with governance.
• Identification of the Baselines, and gaps that need to be captured and managed to completion.
• Configuration management - procedure development, enhancement and integration with the Change Process.
• Integration with Information and Knowledge Management plans (Baseline basis of final design information, parameters, settings Mapped to storage locations).
• Integration and impact assessment with other License Conditions (10, 12, 36, 23, etc. to name by a few).
• Support configuration control of documentation generated by the internal engineering and project team.
• Establish the As Found Condition for correction an completion on completion ready for handover preparedness.
• Support the management of the document management system being used.
• Provide oversight of the contract deliverables and interfaces within the defined handover processes and procedures established.
