ROSWELL PARK CANCER INSTITUTE – Buffalo, NY: Maintenance & Engineering Manager, 5/2009 – 5/2011
Promoted from Utility Operations Analyst to Engineering Manager to oversee daily operation, managed HVAC projects and re-commissioned the building automation systems (BAS) for the steam plant, and two (2) chilled water plants that served the campus that consisted of fifteen (15) medical/research building & IT Data rooms.
• Project management & MEP coordination of the $11,000,000 design build project to construct a new 3500 ton south chilled water plant that was required to supplement the existing 6400 ton north chilled water plant. I was given the responsibility of getting this project completed after just one month of employment. This new role included coordination of the final control system design, sequence of operation, equipment start-up and commissioning plan. Developed and implemented a detailed “Cut-over” plan for a live start-up of the new plant and its integration into the existing plants chilled water piping distribution system to allow for 100% campus operation of all building cooling requirements.
• Developed the final phase of the south chilled water plants by adding a 1400 ton plate heat exchanger to serve the MRC building required to fully off-load the north chilled water plant. This responsibility included developing the preliminary $750,000 project scope for budget approval and then completing the final equipment selection, piping isometrics, DDC control system design, commissioning &training.
• Responsible for implementing new control sequences and strategies for both the north & south chilled water plant varying loads. Worked directly with power plant engineers to get there “buy-in” and educate them on the new plants load requirements and system set point adjustments required to allow for reduced secondary chilled water loop pumping horsepower during varying loads. Developed standard operating procedures (SOP’s) for systems operation during all campus loads, cooling tower economizer winter cooling changeover, and emergency back-up from both plants to a single plant operation.
• Developed in-house design of several $250- 600,000 HVAC capital projects. Responsibilities included, design documents, budgeting, purchasing, ...
