• Build bottom-up estimates using crew-based productivity, equipment rates, labour agreements and material pricing
• Develop construction methodologies with the engineering and planning teams, e.g. cut-and-cover vs. mined, top-down vs. bottom-up station construction, elevated guideway erection methods
• Solicit, level and analyze subcontractor and supplier quotes with Technical Procurement
• Work with design partners on design development, value engineering and constructability reviews
• Identify cost risks and opportunities and feed into the bid risk register and contingency analysis
• Support estimate reviews with senior management and consortium partners, defending assumptions and pricing
• Maintain clear basis-of-estimate documentation and support handover to the project team after award
