    • Power requirements and infrastructure
    • Plenum and non-plenum spaces
    • Signal and transport formats (e.g., 3G, 12G, IP-based systems)
  • Apply ASG drafting standards, including cable color codes, labeling conventions, and documentation best practices.
  • Assist with the creation, reconciliation, and review of Bills of Materials (BOMs) to ensure alignment with design documentation.
  • Perform design quality reviews to identify missing equipment, discrepancies, or drawing errors prior to fabrication or installation.
  • Generate wire lists, cable pull sheets, and other installation-ready documentation from approved designs.
  • Maintain red-line changes and incorporate field updates into AutoCAD drawings as required.
  • Prepare final design packages for distribution to engineering, fabrication, and installation teams.
  • Support engineering and integration teams by addressing design-related questions throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Ensure all design documentation aligns with ASG standards, project requirements, and industry best practices.
