Coordinate bid communications and support subcontractor proposal development

Participate in scope review meetings to clarify inclusions, exclusions, and gaps

Assist in reviewing subcontractor proposals for completeness and alignment

Support constructability reviews and coordinate input across stakeholders

Identify risks, procurement challenges, long-lead items, and schedule impacts

Assist with logistics planning, project phasing, and site coordination

Contribute to value engineering efforts and propose practical alternatives

Prepare preconstruction deliverables, including budgets, estimates, schedules, and reports

Track action items, design decisions, and deadlines

Participate in meetings with owners, architects, consultants, and internal teams

Support project transitions from preconstruction to construction

Visit project sites as needed to assess conditions and constraints
