  • Monitor document control processes and perform periodic quality reviews to identify missing, incomplete, outdated, or incorrectly filed records.
  • Maintain records in accordance with client retention policies, contractual requirements, and applicable public-sector records requirements.
  • Prepare and organize document packages in support of audits, financial or regulatory reviews, public records requests, project closeout, and other formal reporting requirements.
  • Support project closeout activities, including compilation, verification, and turnover of final project records, drawings, specifications, warranties, manuals, and other required documentation.
  • Develop document control procedures, standards, templates, user guides, and training materials.
  • Provide training and technical support to project staff, consultants, contractors, and other users regarding document management systems and procedures.
  • Track document processing performance and support program leadership with reporting related to document status, outstanding actions, and compliance with established procedures.
  • Promote consistent document management practices across the program and identify opportunities to improve workflows, system utilization, and information management.

Qualifications
Minimum Requirements
  • BA/BS degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, Business Administration, Information Management, or a related field plus eight (8) years of relevant document control, records management, or information management experience supporting capital construction projects, or demonstrated equivalency of experience and/or education.

Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience leading document control activities for large, complex capital improvement or facilities programs.
  • Experience supporting multiple concurrent construction projects within a program or portfolio environment.
  • Demonstrated experience using document management and project management platforms such asProcore, e-Builder, Oracle Aconex, SharePoint, Autodesk Construction Cloud, or similar systems.
  • Experience administering RFIs, submittals, change orders, drawings, specifications, transmittals, and other construction documentation.
  • Strong understanding of document numbering, naming conventions, version control, revision management, and document lifecycle processes.
  • Experience managing document repositories involving multiple consultant, contractor, design, and client organizations.
  • Public-sector, government, judicial, civic, higher education, or institutional capital program experience.
  • Familiarity with public-sector records retention requirements, audit documentation, and public records processes.
  • Experience supporting Design-Build or other alternative project delivery methods.
  • Experience preparing and managing project closeout documentation and final record turnover.
  • Experience developing document control procedures, workflows, standards, and training materials.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail, with the ability to manage large volumes of information across multiple concurrent projects.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills and the ability to work effectively with multidisciplinary project teams and client stakeholders.
  • Ability to identify document control risks, resolve information management issues, and maintain consistent standards across multiple project teams.
