PRIMARY PURPOSE:
Completes engineering projects by organizing and controlling project elements such as scope development, cost estimation, detailed design, construction management, and project closeout meetings.
MAJOR DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
- From a problem description, develop high-level scopes including USER REQUIREMENTS that provide solutions to the problem.
- Once high-level scopes are complete, develop order of magnitude (OOM) cost estimates for various solutions.
- Present solutions to Executive Management and get preliminary approval of design concepts before writing the capital request.
- Once approved, develop detailed design parameters for project design
and implementation
- Identify project responsibilities, delegating phases and elements to the appropriate personnel
- Develop and control the full project plan lifecycle
- Assist or act as the construction manager to deliver on project objectives and procedures.
- Prepare schedule and necessary updates of construction activities and analysis of manpower and equipment required
