xPL Assistant Project Developer

Position Description: Support and contribute to technical development of modular and prefabrication applications for projects. Understand and provide technical input and project controls analysis during preconstruction efforts to determine most beneficial application to specific projects.

Essential Duties & Key Responsibilities:

• Support technical implementation of xPL Offsite Manufacturing (OSM) through project specific engagements identifying best fit offsite applications and establishing project controls specifically related, including cost, schedule, labor and estimation.
• Assist with review and evaluation of project specific designs, program intent, contractual obligations, and division of responsibilities and deliverables to support strategic implementation of offsite construction. Work closely with project and design teams to assess design, identify risks, and implement strategies for offsite construction.
• Support technical analysis related to architectural, structural, mechanical, electrical, and/or fire protection systems (et al) to provide project-specific strategic approach for implementation of offsite construction. Provide input to project teams for constructability, risks, examine details, perform quantity takeoffs and cost analysis, and recommend construction sequencing and logistics for specific identified product solutions.
• Assist with evaluating which offsite construction activities require design support and/or which can be addressed as means and methods. Support identification of opportunities for offsite construction within project design or project approach that could become xPL Offsite products and/or Self-Perform Operations (SPO) opportunities.
• Participate in determining fundamental direction of prefabricated and/or modular designs based on project requirements and design, material selections, and vendor availability utilizing DMFA (Design for Manufacturing and Assembly) approach.
• Conduct activities to assist with development of project-specific OSM Scopes of Work and responsibility matrices that support execution of OSM Strategy.
• Support development and implementation of bidding strategies for competitive bids and proposals including manufacturing Trade bid list development.
• Maintain set of offsite construction standard work methods and solutions (e.g., decision matrix, project roadmap, repeatable framework for implementing prefabrication) and contribute to continuous improvement of OSM processes for successful implementations.
• Support and understand key performance indicators (KPIs) associated with project outcomes including, but not limited to cost, schedule, safety, labor, productivity, quality, and sustainability.
• Assist Product Development team with creation of product details and digital assets through data gathering and onsite observations of offsite implementations.
• Begin to establish relationships and become familiar with internal and external stakeholders and increase understanding of new offsite manufacturing technologies and applications for use.
• Assist with providing early technical feedback on pursuit opportunities for design optimization for offsite construction including cost, schedule, and logistics.
• Support internal research and development (R&D) efforts for modular solutions not specifically part of a project or pursuit.
• Other activities, duties, and responsibilities as assigned.
