Ensure contracts match with the bid set of plans, and ensure the approved set of plans matches with the bid set of plans.

Verify all permitting with the project engineer, and confirm all Call Before You Dig notifications are active and remain active.

Build a PDF budget for the foreman based on the proposal, and ensure all materials are on there, down to the cubic yardage. Send out job information sheets and plans to vendors, and shop the best prices for the project. If any materials with long lead times are on the list, communicate the time frame with the General Contractor.

Request project-specific traffic control plans, and ensure the dollar amount is within our budgeted duration and covers all areas that require traffic and pedestrian control.

Schedule the project job start with appropriate government entities, including the City of Las Vegas, Clark County Water Reclamation, Las Vegas Valley Water District, and so on. Ascertain that each foreman is requesting density, backfill, pipe, and all other inspections accordingly. If any inspections fail, ensure that they are communicating why it failed and what could be done differently in the future.

Coordinate with each government entity the finalization of each project scope, verify all inspections have met the minimum requirements, all required documentation has been turned in, and all fire hydrants, risers, manholes, and pipes have been properly flushed, cleaned, cameras, and corrosion protected.

In the duration of each project, I maintain all out-of-contract costs on either a time and material basis or send a proposed budgeted cost. These change orders are followed up biweekly and are tracked on an Excel spreadsheet. Once signed and approved, I make sure it's captured in our next billing cycle. I am willing to go more into depth in person.
