• Mentor Project Engineers/Project Managers through structured delegation and skill development.
• Model "calm under pressure" leadership that keeps teams focused and confident.

• Ensure clean, consistent project records that support decision-making and claims avoidance.
• Maintain job cost integrity in partnership with accounting—accurate, current, and decision-ready.
• Reduce friction by standardizing workflows and improving how information moves between field, office, and stakeholders.

KRA 8: Closeout Excellence & Turnover Readiness

• Close projects cleanly (operationally + financially), ensuring final billing and retention are managed professionally.

Performance Standards (What "Great" Looks Like)
