Nice To Haves

One or more years of experience in HVAC or mechanical trades, building maintenance, facilities operations, building inspections, commissioning, or energy audits.
Ability to identify common MEP equipment types and read equipment nameplates.
Careful, consistent data entry and strong attention to detail.
OSHA 10 or OSHA 30 certification.
Prior work on asset tagging, equipment inventory, or facility condition assessment projects.
Familiarity with CMMS or EAM platforms such as ARCHIBUS, Maximo, or similar.

Responsibilities

Survey all major MEP equipment floor by floor, including boilers, chillers, air handlers, pumps, fans, water heaters, switchgear, panels, transformers, and backflow preventers.
Record nameplate data (manufacturer, model, serial number, capacity, voltage, year of manufacture) and equipment location in a standardized Excel inventory template or mobile data-collection app.
Install rigid metal asset tags carrying a unique ID and QR or bar code, following the client's naming convention, and confirm each tag scans to its matching inventory record.
Photograph each asset to show its nameplate, overall condition, and location, and name and file every photo so it links to its asset ID.
Rate the physical condition of each asset on a standardized scale, noting age, corrosion, leaks, abnormal noise or vibration, missing components, and visible deterioration.
Record field observations that feed facility condition assessment reports prepared to ASTM E2018 guidance, including estimated remaining useful life and repair or replacement needs.
Report urgent deficiencies and life-safety concerns to the project manager the same day they are found.
Check each day's data for completeness, duplicate IDs, and mismatches between tags, photos, and inventory records before leaving the site.
Reconcile field findings against existing asset lists and drawings supplied by the client, and flag equipment that is missing, removed, or unlisted.
Upload inventory data and photos to the shared project platform daily and keep organized records of all site work.
Coordinate site access with building managers, facility engineers, and security staff at occupied public buildings.
Give the project manager regular progress updates on assets surveyed, tagged, and outstanding for the project tracker.
Represent HES professionally to client staff, building personnel, and project partners.
Follow project protocols, inspection checklists, and data standards set by HES and the client.
Perform all field work in compliance with applicable health and safety standards, including safe practices around energized and rotating equipment.
