• Collaborate closely with VDC directors and self-perform VDC teams to ensure general VDC services, deliverables, and schedules meet project objectives.
• Maintain strong working relationships with owners, subcontractors, and project teams to support effective coordination.
• Read and interpret owner requirements, BIM execution plans, and front-end scopes of work, ensuring all minimum project requirements are met.
• Develop composite models by assembling 3D content provided by designers and trade contractors, and create additional model content when it is not provided.
• Lead the implementation and adherence to VDC processes and standards across assigned projects.
• Manage the change process by updating all project models, and track and communicate schedule and budget impacts to operations teams in a timely manner.
• Provide BIM technical support and guidance to internal project teams, helping resolve modeling and coordination issues.
