- Coordinate with building management and client representatives regarding site access, deliveries, freight elevator use, shutdowns, noise restrictions, and after-hours or weekend work.
- Plan and manage construction in occupied spaces, including phased turnover, dust control, protection of existing finishes, and maintenance of safe access for tenants.
- Maintain daily logs documenting site activities, conditions, manpower, deliveries, and schedule progress.
- Review drawings and subcontractor scopes, identify conflicts or gaps early, and collaborate with the project team to resolve issues and avoid unnecessary change orders.
- Maintain strong working relationships with subcontractors, ensuring clear expectations, accountability, and fair treatment.
- Organize site logistics, temporary facilities, utilities, material staging, and deliveries; identify long-lead items and coordinate timely procurement with the project manager.
- Coordinate inspections, testing, and building system startup, and manage punch lists and closeout through owner and architect acceptance.
- Collaborate with the project manager and site operations team throughout the life of the project.
