• Acquire a thorough understanding of, and assist in establishing, the Client's requirements for the dry mechanical scope relating to budget, quality, and schedule.
• Advise on and issue appropriate notices on behalf of the Client to relevant parties regarding procedures and other practical matters arising under the Contract Agreements.
• Create and maintain, for the purpose of daily active management of project delivery, three key tools: a. Action Item Log – for tracking key actions and associated "what," "when," and "who" required to maintain project progression. b. Milestone Management Log – for extracting key milestones from the project schedule to focus the team on the right course of action. c. Procurement Log – for tracking all major equipment and associated progress in delivery of Client/OFCI-provided items.
• Establish working relationships with architects, engineers, consultants, and vendors, and provide them (and maintain throughout the project) an overview of the Client's needs, goals, requirements, and schedule constraints.
• Work with the Client and Project Team to evaluate options and make decisions related to phased growth into the facility (e.g., MEP equipment, layouts, building expansion, etc.).
• Work closely with the Superintendents to ensure that a progressive and consistent safety culture is part of field execution. Ensure vendors and trade contractors promote a behavior-based safety plan and actively administer, manage, and audit in the field.

• Evaluate labor productivity reports from the Superintendent and conduct cost-benefit analyses of acceleration techniques (e.g., second shifts).
• Incorporate key milestones into deliverables owned by dry mechanical material vendors and include their commitment to those milestones during sourcing.
• Ensure all stakeholders are guided by the schedule rather than acting as constraints to achieving it.
• Routinely review schedule details and identify any flaws that may impact project completion. Propose mitigation plans for schedule recovery where applicable.
• Perform problem-solving tasks for any portion of the work that falls behind schedule, providing regular and transparent communication to the Client.

• Report to the PM on all matters requiring Client decisions that affect mechanical design, specifications, cost, schedule, or program. The PM will review these issues with the Client and make recommendations supported by analysis and data.
• Attend meetings with the Client, vendors, and trade contractors as needed to keep the project on track.
