Work closely with vendors on product data, lead times, and substitutions.
Help maintain company standards for submittals, shop drawings, and material approval processes.
Lead project close out by leading the assembly of deliverables including as-built drawings, verifying that test results are complete and accurate and obtaining manufacturer warranties as required for project close out.

Ability to read and interpret complex plans, specs, and contract documents.
