- Assist with discipline man-hour budgets; plan work to schedule and report progress, risks, and needed changes to the project manager.
- Perform studies, load calculations, and equipment selection appropriate to the project design; review work for technical accuracy before QA/QC.
- Respond to contractor and supplier questions during bid and construction; review shop drawings and submittals.
- Conduct site visits to monitor progress and observe installed construction; comment based on design specifications, owner expectations, and codes.
- Maintain detailed records of communications with clients, contractors, vendors, and team members; contribute to lessons learned.
- Support training and mentoring of designers and EITs; maintain continuous learning on codes, software, and industry trends; assist PMs as needed.
