• Assist in resolving construction problems such as productivity gaps, work interfaces, and manpower requirements; advise senior supervision and project management of potential problems, work interferences, and schedule difficulties, and help resolve them as required.
• Maintain liaison with other departments, including Purchasing, Quality Control, and Engineering, to ensure all required materials, equipment, and inspections support craft activities and the project schedule.
• Conduct pre‑job and continued planning meetings to ensure all project team members understand contract terms and conditions, clauses, schedules, and any unusual requirements.
