• Coordinate with the design and planning teams to ensure constructability and early identification of conflicts or risks in design.
• Develop technical content for procurement packages, including scope breakdowns, specification sheets, and BOQ-based comparison templates.
• Conduct technical evaluations of supplier and subcontractor quotations, including conformity checks against project specs.
• Collaborate with the procurement department to assist in cost benchmarking, bid tabulations, and identification of best-value offers.
