  • Manage, direct, and coordinate the activities of internal or contracted personnel or third parties who are providing services or performing on-site installations.


Process Oversight:

  • Track project milestones and deliverables, proactively identifying and mitigating potential delays or bottlenecks.
  • Ensure all equipment fit-outs and installations meet Prime Data Centers’ quality, budgetary, and timeline standards.


Stakeholder Communication:

  • Provide regular updates to customers and internal stakeholders on project progress, milestones, and any adjustments to timelines or budgets.
  • Document and report on project costs, comparing actual expenditures to budget estimates.


Compliance & Standards:

  • Ensure all designs and project plans comply with relevant regulations, industry standards, and Prime Data Centers’ internal guidelines.
