• Collaborate with project managers, superintendents, and design teams to clarify scope, identify value engineering opportunities, and mitigate risks.
• Develop and present clear, professional estimate summaries and bid proposals to stakeholders and clients.
• Perform constructability reviews and site visits as needed to validate assumptions and identify site-specific costs or constraints.
• Monitor competitive landscape and market pricing trends for labor, materials, and equipment to inform bid strategies and contingency planning.
• Support post-bid activities including bid reconciliation, change order pricing, and final subcontractor buyouts.
• Ensure all estimates comply with company policies, contract requirements, and safety/regulatory standards.
