Job description

Position Summary:

We are seeking a highly skilled and analytical Construction Estimator with proven experience in preparing competitive and compliant estimates for federal construction projects, including design-build, design-bid-build, and Job Order Contracting (JOC) or SABER-type contracts. The Estimator must demonstrate mastery in assembly estimating, unit-based estimating, detailed estimating, GC bid estimating, and coefficient development for RS Means-based contracts.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Prepare accurate, detailed cost estimates using:
    • Assembly Estimating for major building systems and scopes.
    • Unit-Based Estimating utilizing RS Means and historical cost data.
    • Detailed Estimating based on construction drawings and RFP narratives.
    • GC Bid Estimating for competitive bids requiring subcontractor integration.
    • Coefficient Development for JOC/SABER/IDIQ contracts to ensure responsive, profitable factors based on RS Means unit line items and regional cost modifiers.
  • Develop pricing strategies for federal RFPs issued by agencies such as NAVFAC, USACE, VA, GSA, and others.
  • Attend site visits, perform scope validation, and identify project risks and constructability issues.
  • Issue RFQs to subcontractors and vendors; level and analyze received proposals for completeness and competitiveness.
  • Prepare all pricing documentation including bid forms (SF1442), cost narratives, schedules, bonding requirements, and wage rate compliance.
  • Use parametric estimating techniques for early-phase pricing when limited design information is available.
  • Maintain and update pricing libraries and cost history databases.
  • Track market trends, escalation, labor availability, and regional pricing variances.
  • Coordinate with internal teams on preconstruction, operations, and proposal development.

Required Qualifications:

  • Experience: Minimum 5 years in construction estimating, including 3+ years on federal projects.
  • Federal Experience: Demonstrated experience with government clients such as USACE, NAVFAC, VA, GSA, AFCEC, or similar.
  • Technical Skills:
    • Advanced knowledge of RS Means.
    • Proficient in coefficient development for IDIQ, SABER, and JOC contracts.
    • Strong background in assembly, unit-based, and detailed estimating.
    • Proven ability to lead or support GC competitive bid estimates.
  • Software: Microsoft Excel (advanced), Bluebeam Revu, RS Means CostWorks, and digital takeoff platforms like PlanSwift or similar.
  • Education: Bachelor's degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or equivalent experience.
  • Certifications (Preferred): OSHA 30, CPE, or equivalent.
  • Travel: Required for pre-bid site visits and client walkthroughs as necessary.
