    • Assist in the creation of logistics plans and accurately translate them to direct project costs.
    • Compile detailed award packages to pass on to the purchasing team after estimate approval.
    • Consult with architects, subcontractors, and material suppliers to discuss and formulate estimates, effect cost reductions, and resolve issues.
    • Actively research, solicit and develop sources/vendors for compiling and maintaining accuracy of cost information.
    • Maintain current trends in and changes to existing construction codes to ensure complete bids from subcontractors and material suppliers.
    • Attend client and/or team meetings to discuss estimates, answer any questions, and resolve any issues regarding pricing and estimates.
    • Ensure a complete review of plans and drawings, identify items that have been omitted, and ensure appropriate accounting for such items in the overall estimate package that represents the full scope of the project.
    • Maintain client relationships throughout the project life cycle, ensuring client satisfaction with the project.
    • Analyze completed projects to compare estimated costs to actual costs and determine the reason for any discrepancies.
    • Review and thoroughly understand all RFP documents, drawings, and specifications required to build a complete estimate.
    • Organize/conduct walk throughs coordinated with subcontractors to gather information on the existing conditions of a site.

    Computer Systems
