I Have over 24 years of experience in document management in engineering and construction projects and shut down plants in the oil and gas industry, most recently in the research, development and innovation (R+D+i) activities of the petroleum technologies activities. My main strengths are the establishment and operation of Electronic Document Management Systems (EDMS) to ensure successful management of engineering, vendors and subcontractors documents, from the kick-off meeting, during project execution to the final closeout. I have developed several different types of document control systems for various projects in all life cycle for an engineering project (conceptualization, feasibility, planning, detail design, execution, testing and commissioning, operation and closeout). In doing so I have gained experience in every one of those phases, even related to proposal preparation, contracts, execution and handover of final project information/documentation (closeout dossier) to Clients.
