1- Purpose of the Role (Job Summary)
Lead mechanical, electrical, and ELV estimation for data center EPC bids. MEP is 60–70% of contract value, so this role drives both bid competitiveness and margin, including OEM pricing strategy for long-lead plant.
2- Key Responsibilities and Accountabilities
· Own the complete MEP estimate per tender: equipment, installation, subcontracts, commissioning support, and spares.
· Direct the discipline estimators to one estimate basis, boundary matrix, and assumptions log.
· Drive OEM budget pricing for long-lead equipment — generators, UPS, switchgear, transformers, chillers, CRAH/CRAC/fan-walls, busway — including delivery and escalation terms.
· Read tender documents for DC-specific drivers: redundancy topology (N+1/2N), tier requirements, liquid cooling,



EPMS/BMS scope, and phased fit-out.
· Adjudicate MEP subcontractor quotes and normalize supply, installation, and commissioning splits.
· Maintain MEP benchmarks: cost/MW by topology and geography, cost per kW by system, and installation norms.
· Prepare MEP risk registers, exclusions, and contingency recommendations.
· Lead MEP value engineering with design; quantify alternates for topology, plant selection, and phasing.
· Hand as-sold estimates to delivery, then reconcile against actuals and update norms.
3- Key Performance Indicators
· As-sold vs final MEP cost variance within ±5%.
· At least 2 compliant OEM quotes per critical equipment class.
· 100% on-time MEP estimate delivery per bid plan.
· Benchmark database refreshed quarterly.
· Value-engineering savings identified and accepted per bid.
4- Qualifications & Certifications
· Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical or Mechanical Engineering (mandatory).
