  • Quality Control & Installation Oversight: Ensure installation meets approved shop drawings, specifications, and quality standards; identify fit, finish, or constructability issues in the field; prevent reworking through early detection and proactive coordination; document issues with photos and written feedback.
  • Plant & Project Team Communication: Provide real-time feedback to the plant and project management team regarding field conditions impacting fabrication, product adjustments or refinements needed, and installation challenges or improvement opportunities; participate in coordination calls as needed with PMs, engineering, and production.
  • Schedule & Coordination: Coordinate installation activities with other trades and the general contractor; communicate site readiness issues (access, power, floor conditions, sequencing); track progress against schedule and report delays or risks early; assist PMs with look-ahead planning and milestone tracking.
  • Safety & Compliance: Enforce job-satisfaction requirements and company policies; participate in site safety meetings and inspections; ensure crews follow all OSHA and site-specific safety rules.
