The future is being built today, and Johnson Controls is making that future more productive, more secure, and more sustainable. We are harnessing the power of cloud, data analytics, the Internet of Things, and Design Thinking to deliver on the promise of intelligent buildings.

To implement this vision, we have developed CPO (Central Plant Optimization). CPO is a software product that helps central energy facility managers and operators save operational costs, reduce energy consumption, reduce water consumption, and lower carbon footprint. CPO is being used by universities, hospitals, airports, office towers, data centers, among other industries, to deliver reliable central utilities most cost-effectively.

Leads the process of system integration and commissioning for the Central Plant Optimization (CPO) solution for district energy plants across the globe. Partners with customers to meet the project implementation schedule goals. Guides control contractor teams to ensure quality and timeliness. Trains plant operators and other end-users to take full advantage of the CPO software solution and provides technical support during the warranty period.

How you will do it

• Assess central plants to prepare drawings and written scopes of work for new sensors, meters, and controls recommissioning that must be installed to be “CPO-Ready”
• Creates and executes integration test plans to ensure proper bidirectional flow of data and commands between CPO and the plant automation system, in partnership with the controls service contractor.
• Overseeing point mapping and programming of the local plant automation system to ensure smooth transfer between operating modes
• Validates system functionality analyzes command dispatch results and troubleshoots problems throughout the commissioning process
• Develops strong relationships with customers by leading regular progress meetings and training plant operators to earn their confidence in following the CPO commands.
