Responsibilities

The Project Manager coordinates and directs a project team’s engineering, design, procurement, and construction efforts to meet a customer’s project objectives in accordance with the terms defined in the contract applicable to the work. The Project Manager provides, endorses, and enforces the applicable project principles, practices, and guidelines to ensure efficient and safe use and allocation of the team’s and the firm’s resources. The Project Manager exercises judgment and experience when applying these principles to ensure that enough alternatives are considered by the team and that optimal solutions are achieved with schedule and budget constraints. It is the Project Manager’s responsibility to work with team members and management to identify team and project execution weaknesses and strengthen those areas with process and personnel improvements. The Project Manager must have a consistent bias for action for project performance and resolute decision making. The Project Manager may have multiple simultaneous project and client assignments.

The Project Manager is also responsible for cultivating new work with clients with which the Project Manager has a working relationship. The Project Manager will continuously pursue additional opportunities to provide customers with engineering, design, and construction services.

Project Responsibilities

The Project Manager has direct responsibility to ITAC’s customers for the engineering, design, procurement, and construction services and deliverables for which ITAC is under contract to perform. The Project Manager is responsible for ensuring sufficient quality reviews (e.g., interdiscipline and constructability) are built into the project team’s execution plan. The Project Manager is responsible for ensuring that the project team meets all established scope, budget, and schedule commitments with quality services and deliverables. The Project Manager is also responsible for maintaining positive client relations, considering the interests of both the client and ITAC fairly and equally. The following summary does not necessarily include all the project management responsibilities:

• Scope - The Project Manager is responsible for the overall ITAC scope of the project. In many cases the Project Manager will develop the scope documents although these may be developed by others. The Project Manager is responsible for using the correct documents (from the ITAC network) and assuring that these documents meet their intended purpose. Scope documents include:
  • Scope of Work – defines project deliverables and schedules
  • Discipline Narrative/Project Execution Plan – defines the details of the discipline design
  • Specification – defines the details equipment or programming effort (when applicable to your discipline)
  • The purpose of these scope documents is to communicate the project objectives to the Client, Project Manager, and design team. These documents must have enough detail to allow the discipline design team to proceed in the absence of the lead engineer. These documents must specify the deliverables and schedule.
• Schedule – The Project Manager is responsible for developing and maintaining the project schedule as defined in the scope documents. The Project Manager must ensure proper resources are assigned and the project is proceeding on schedule.
• Budget – The Project Manager is responsible for tracking and maintaining the project budget as defined in the proposal and project estimate. The Project Manager must ensure that the task codes are defined for weekly cost reports. The Project Manager is responsible for handling change requests with the client and ensuring ITAC is paid for work performed.
• Quality – The Project Manager is responsible for the overall quality of all project deliverables. The Project Manager is responsible for ensuring quality control checks of all deliverables are performed.
• Execution Plan – The Project Manager is responsible for the development and execution of the Project Execution Plan, identifying and communicating areas of risk and delays in that execution plan.

At all times during the execution of the project, the Project Manager is responsible for maintaining the scope documents, schedule, budget, and quality, and is responsible for helping the discipline leaders develop and follow the project execution plan. Throughout the execution of the project, the Project Manager is responsible for reconciling all scope, schedule, and budget issues by maintaining the proper project documentation (e.g., CRA, telephone confirmations, meeting minutes, needs lists). All conversations and issues involving the scope, schedule, and budget are to be discussed with the project team and then documented. The Project Manager must assure that the proper information is available for the project to proceed efficiently (on schedule and on budget).
