Description/Duties The Construction Supervisor class reviews and evaluates public works construction projects as the projects transition from the project design/preconstruction phase to the construction phase for constructability and biddability to ensure each project can both be constructed and bid as designed and to address/mitigate/resolve scheduling and construction issues; reviews project plans and specifications to identify and resolve construction issues that may impact the project's schedule, costs, or construction quality and to proactively identify and implement corrective measures in the field to mitigate/resolve the issues; analyzes and settles project construction schedules to identify and address constraints; works with client departments and outside agencies to coordinate construction activities; and discusses/communicates significant project changes/decisions with the assigned project manager. The Construction Supervisor class assesses and determines whether contractors' work is viable; negotiates with contractors regarding contract compliance, additional work requests, and project schedules/potential delays; reviews contractor requests for additional payments and time extensions and communicates/coordinates with the assigned project managers; reviews and approves traffic control plans for projects; and leads project close-out procedures for entire projects. This class also supervises and coordinates the work of the construction inspection staff (Construction Inspector Is/IIs and Construction Inspector Trainees); trains the inspection staff on construction and inspection methods and safety procedures; reviews the project construction schedules for feasibility; and drafts written policies, procedures, goals, objectives, and standards related to construction and inspections.
The Construction Supervisor class supervises the Construction Inspector II class which is primarily responsible for performing quality assurance inspections and administering City contracts, serving as a field resource for both City staff and contractors/developers, and assisting in the training of new/lower-level inspection staff but does have full supervisory responsibilities. The Construction Supervisor class also differs from the Engineering Designer and Civil Engineer classes that oversee the other project phases and have total project responsibility for assigned projects. This class is supervised by a Supervising Engineer or Deputy Engineer through meetings and reports concerning project status and overall results achieved. This class is FLSA exempt.
