  • Implement the Companys quality control program, lead preparatory meetings before each major feature of work, and manage inspections, testing, commissioning, punch-list completion, as-built documentation, and final acceptance.

  • Familiarity with contract requirements, reporting, procurement procedures, and other requirements associated general contracting construction projects.
  • Experience coordinating with owners, government agencies, third-party construction managers, inspectors, commissioning authorities, and other project stakeholders.
