Key responsibilities include handling the project from the initial estimate through subcontract formalization, developing detailed conceptual cost estimates, and creating variance summaries as designs evolve. The manager must assemble presentation‑ready estimate packages, prepare bid documents, manage the bidding process, and make subcontractor award recommendations. Additional duties involve leading cost and budget presentations, responding to RFPs, facilitating value‑engineering sessions, reviewing contracts for critical clauses, and motivating preconstruction teams.
DPR Construction is seeking a Preconstruction Manager with at least eight years of healthcare construction experience. The role focuses on negotiated commercial projects in core markets such as healthcare, advanced technology, higher education, life sciences, and corporate office. The manager will collaborate closely with architects, engineers, owners, and subcontractors throughout the project lifecycle.
The ideal candidate is a flexible, detail‑oriented team player capable of managing multiple tasks, delivering quality work, and meeting deadlines. Strong listening and communication skills, creative problem‑solving abilities, and effective teamwork are essential. Required qualifications include proficiency with Microsoft Office, estimating software (WinEst, Timberline), take‑off tools (On‑Screen Takeoff), BIM platforms (Revit, Assemble), project management systems (CMiC), and scheduling software (Primavera), as well as eight plus years of commercial estimating experience, preferably in healthcare, a bachelor’s degree, a strong work ethic, and a “can‑do” attitude.
