M & E Coordinator

⚙ What Does an M&E Coordinator Do? “M&E” = Mechanical & Electrical (sometimes “MEP” if Plumbing included). An M&E Coordinator ensures that the mechanical, electrical (and sometimes plumbing) parts of a building project are planned, executed, coordinated, and delivered correctly. Key Responsibilities / Job Scope • Review and coordinate M&E drawings, shop drawings, technical specifications. Ensure all submissions, revisions, materials, samples, and method statements are approved by consultants/authorities. • Liaise with consultants, clients, contractors & sub‑contractors to resolve technical issues and ensure works match design & specification. • Coordinate with other trades (architectural, structural, plumbing, fire safety) so M&E installation fits into overall site work & sequence. Avoid conflicts and clashes. • Monitor and supervise installation of M&E works (HVAC / ACMV, electrical, lighting, plumbing, fire‑protection systems, etc.). Ensure quality, safety, adherence to codes. • Testing, commissioning, inspections: ensure systems function correctly and are safe before handover. • Track project progress: schedule, timelines, site coordination, reporting progress, flagging delays or technical issues. • Ensure compliance with regulations, codes of practices, building standards, safety requirements. • Manage documentation: approvals, submission of drawings & materials, maintaining records.
