Support quantity takeoffs, pricing, subcontractor/vendor quotes, constructability reviews, site visits, and proposal development. Coordinate with Procurement for formal buyout and purchasing after award.
Cost, Schedule, and Contract Management
Own program-level cost control, budgeting, forecasting, project financial reviews, billing milestones, labor utilization, subcontractor performance, and change order management. Ensure proper documentation, contract compliance, flow-down requirements, and timely corrective action.
Federal Compliance, Safety, and Quality
Ensure compliance with applicable federal construction requirements, including EM 385-1-1, OSHA, Davis-Bacon, certified payroll, contract documentation, and USACE three-phase quality control where applicable. Support audit readiness and disciplined recordkeeping.
Customer and Stakeholder Management
Serve as a senior point of contact for government customers, Contracting Officers, CORs, end users, primes, subcontractors, vendors, and internal leadership. Represent VIRSIG professionally in project meetings, progress reviews, executive briefings, and customer escalations.
Operational Excellence
Develop and improve project management processes, templates, workflows, SOPs, reporting tools, and project controls. Support implementation of systems such as Procore or similar tools. Help build repeatable processes that strengthen VIRSIG's ability to scale.
