The I&C Engineer manages the production of their own design deliverables (control system architecture, I/O lists, functional description specifications, control system specification, instrumentation general specification, instrumentation datasheets, hook-up drawings...) with respect to the technical and contractual requirements of the project, and within project schedule and budget.

The I&C Engineer is part of the project engineering team, which is led by one Engineering Manager / Technical Coordinator.  The I&C Engineer reports operationally to the Lead EIC Engineer or directly to the Engineering Manager / Technical Coordinator.  

ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES

For project execution:
The I&C Engineer has the following tasks:
• Production of instrumentation design deliverables, i.e instrumentation general specification, instrumentation datasheets, hook-up drawings, etc.
• Production of control design deliverables, i.e.  control system architecture, I/O lists, functional description specifications, control system specification, etc.
• Production of control system package specification/datasheets for inquiry, checking suppliers / sub-contractors’ offers (compliance with the inquiry), preparation of the technical comparison table based on the offers received, technical ranking of the offers, and participation to the selection of the sub-contractor / supplier together with the engineering manager, project buyer and project manager.
• Follow up and review of the engineering documentation provided by the suppliers / sub-contractors once purchase order has been placed (= review and approval of the control system detailed design produced by the control system sub-contractor, etc.)
• Coordination with the other engineering disciplines, such as:
Check and comment of mechanical equipment design related to instrumentation & control (for instance, if the equipment/package is provided with a local control panel).
Coordination with the electrical engineer
Coordination with the process engineer (comments on PID’s, process control philosophies etc.)
Participation to specific studies if required by the Contract (such as HAZOP, etc.)
• Support for the approval of the instrumentation & control design deliverables by Client / Consultant, reply to comments.
