  • Cost and Estimating Management: Lead estimating teams through the development of preliminary estimates and GMP proposals by engaging partners, aligning scope, detailing assumptions, while integrating cost, schedule, phasing, and procurement considerations.
  • Safety, Environmental, and Quality Management: Ensure safety and environmental compliance while implementing a robust quality program with structured reviews to validate and improve design deliverables.
  • Constructability, Value Engineering, Construction Planning and Coordination: Develop construction strategies and evaluate design alternatives to optimize cost, schedule, safety, and quality, while facilitating constructability reviews and resolving design issues.
  • Business Development and Pursuit Coordination and Support: Support project pursuits by shaping teams, scopes, budgets, schedules, and technical strategies to align with client requirements and proposal commitments.
  • Construction and Close-out Coordination and Support: Provide continuity from preconstruction into construction by supporting change management, permitting, documentation, and final closeout activities including commissioning and turnover.
