  • Prepare conceptual and detailed budgets from all levels of documents ranging from napkin sketches, schematic design, design development, and a bid set of documents.
  • Manage multiple projects simultaneously in different stages of development.
  • Lead teams of estimators during the bid process, ensuring proper coverage of the scope of work and taking responsibility for bid dates, compiling bid information on bid day, properly qualifying the project, and compiling the proposal for the client.
  • Lead the bid team in making sure that the appropriate trades and, more importantly, the appropriate Subcontractors within those trades are being targeted for pricing to ensure proper bid coverage is obtained.
  • Review the bid set of documents and identify critical components of the Project that need focus from the bid team as well as operations to make sure proper planning is performed during the bid. This includes meeting with operations and discussing phasing, logistics, and overall construction sequence for the Project.
  • Maintain contacts in the industry and keep apprised of market conditions that may affect L.F. Jennings’ product offerings, including pricing and scheduling factors.
  • Report to the VP level directly within the department.
