Project Manager
Oversees and coordinates project management activity related to planning and monitoring construction design from conception stage to final drawing completion. This includes reviewing construction plans and specifications on both small and large-scale projects with architectural and engineering firms. Provides administrative direction and oversight over construction control activities and project milestones. Monitors budget from planning through construction phases and makes frequent inspections of worksites to ensure compliance with contract requirements. Conducts and participates in partial and final inspections of completed work. This includes reviews on project progress, measuring performance and taking necessary corrective actions to maintain agreed upon schedule and cost. Since many construction projects are for repair and alteration type work, unique design capabilities and innovative techniques are required to work within the confines imposed by the existing facilities which are composed of masonry, structural steel, reinforced concrete and other materials, and involve coordinating aspects of mechanical, electrical, structural, architectural, sanitary, civil, and environmental work and completing administrative assessment reports. Develops work packages from maintenance and repair backlog and provides justification and supporting data for projects. Ensures construction and patient/public safety risks are appropriately managed during all phases of design (site investigation) and construction. Coordinates the preconstruction and safety meetings with contractor/s, contracting officer/s, facility safety officer and other interested parties. Reviews and approves submitted construction schedules and coordinates utility outages and disruptions with Medical Center activities to ensure that essential services are maintained with minimum interruption to patient care. Coordinates personnel moves both before and after the construction activities. Ensures the completion of technical design review for all projects developed in-house or by other design agencies based on project management timeframes. Recommends contract changes and assists in the contract modification process by developing or obtaining from the project Architect/Engineer the scope of the change and cost estimates, reviewing contractor proposals, negotiating costs and time extensions, and requesting funding. Provides the necessary administrative coordination of resolution of contract disputes and provides evidence and testimony in court if deemed necessary. Work Schedule:
