● Work closely with estimators, designers, and project managers to coordinate accurate estimates and budget information.
● Ensure estimators have the latest design, network, and client information required for pricing.
● Monitor changes to project requirements and coordinate design or network changes that may require estimates or budgets to be reviewed, ensuring potential cost impacts are communicated.
Issue Resolution
● Identify changes to client requirements and coordinate assessment of their impact on design, cost, programme, and network approvals.
● Support the resolution of pre-construction issues, delays, and conflicts, escalating technical, commercial, or programme issues to the appropriate manager or department.
