Manage site logistics: laydown areas, trailer placement (with Owner approval), crane picks, deliveries, temporary utilities, and pedestrian/vehicle traffic control, across both building and underground utility work areas. Verify installed work conforms to contract documents, approved submittals, and shop drawings; reject non‑conforming work and drive timely correction.
