• Collect Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and site-specific safety plans from all subcontractors.
• Call in Safety Consultant visits (minimum 1/month, target 2/month); document and close out findings.
• Maintain OSHA postings, first-aid kits, and emergency route maps in the site office.
• Report injuries immediately and manage OSHA visits per procedure.

Schedule & Coordination

• Lead weekly subcontractor coordination meetings and issue meeting minutes.
• Track daily manpower, photos, and progress through Procore.
• Coordinate long-lead material delivery to maintain schedule.

Consultant & Inspection Management

• Review consultant reports, document completion with photos, and obtain final sign-off letters before closeout.

Quality & Cost Control

• Review drawings for conflicts before buyout; issue RFIs as needed.
• Conduct preconstruction meetings for each trade.
• Perform daily site walks to confirm quality and adherence to plans.
• Verify field work aligns with budget targets and notify PM/VP of any cost impacts.

Compliance & Documentation
