Ensuring integration of logistics plans with interface constraints, utility diversions, and phased handovers, particularly in live or sensitive operational environments.

Stakeholder & Authority Coordination

Supporting approvals and permits related to interfaces and logistics (road closures, diversions, utility connections, working windows, etc.). Ensuring clear communication of interface requirements to all stakeholders, including constraints affecting operations, safety, and public impact.

PMIS, Reporting & Documentation

Maintaining interface and logistics data in the project PMIS (e.g. Aconex or equivalent), ensuring accurate and up-to-date records, action tracking, and document control. Preparing periodic interface and logistics status reports, dashboards, and KPIs for Parsons PMC and client management. Recording, maintaining, and updating interface agreements, minutes of meetings, decisions, and approvals to ensure traceability and auditability.

HSSE & Compliance

Ensuring all interface and logistics activities comply with project HSSE requirements, local regulations, and Parsons PMC procedures. Identifying and helping mitigate interface-related HSSE risks (e.g. conflicting work fronts, traffic management, simultaneous operations, live utilities). Promoting a proactive safety culture among contractors in relation to logistics, access, and interfaces.
