Identify design issues and project risks impacting SPO for concrete; generate solutions and collaborate with Preconstruction team to resolve.
Participate and contribute to Launch Matrix for each milestone estimate.
Generate labor productivity rates in coordination with historical data and project specific constraints.
Prepare comparison analysis to previous estimates and develop clear and concise messages to explain variances for each project stakeholder.
Provide pricing for value engineering, alternates, options, and special studies.
Develop, lead, or support assembly of estimate, bid or GMP documents required by and submitted to owner, coordinate requirements with contract agreement.
May supervise SPO concrete estimators, participate in hiring process, onboard new staff, and deliver timely performance feedback for direct reports, contribute to performance appraisals during annual performance cycle, utilize talent management systems, and identify appropriate training to help with development needs.
Define markups and labor rates based on project approach, backlog and level of risk.
Perform complex estimating activities working in collaboration with Self Perform Operations (SPO) concrete and Preconstruction managers to throughout preconstruction phase launch process.
Develop conceptual estimate and schematic level drawings to establish budget for self-performed concrete scopes of work.
Generate, coordinate, and manage Budget Control Reports (BCR) between each milestone estimate to manage cost events and value engineering opportunities. Provide variance reports for each milestone estimate to communicate scope development.
Review estimate for complete and accurate pricing within estimate or Guaranteed Maximum Price (GMP), reflect recent pricing data and Trades bids or budgets.
Provide input to constructability reviews coordinate with Operations team and provide feedback to Design team and client.
Conduct reviews of design documents for completion; assemble comments and requests for additional information needed to provide complete estimates.
Analyze project schedules for sequencing risk and prepare labor loaded schedules based on estimated days.
Develop and maintain vendor relationships in order to solicit competitive pricing.
