This internship offers hands‑on exposure to large‑scale industrial MEP systems, with a particular emphasis on electrical systems, system integration, and cross‑discipline coordination.

• Support the BSI MEP team in tracking and organizing electrical and MEP requirements throughout all project phases, from early design through construction and commissioning.
• Assist with reviewing MEP drawings, equipment data sheets, and contractor or supplier submissions for completeness and alignment with project expectations.
• Participate in supervised field visits to observe installation progress, verify basic electrical and MEP conditions, and document findings for the engineering team.
• Help coordinate communication between design, commissioning, quality, and construction teams by updating trackers, preparing meeting notes, and monitoring action items.
• Maintain organized documentation related to design updates, technical clarifications, and electrical/MEP system changes to ensure proper traceability.
• Support QA/QC and commissioning activities by helping prepare checklists, assemble documentation packages, and gather information needed to verify system readiness.
• Build familiarity with electrical system integration concepts (power distribution, grounding, controls interfaces) and general MEP coordination by shadowing engineers throughout the project lifecycle.
