  • Prepare estimates using industry-standard tools, agree on costs for non-standard materials, and establish a consistent estimation process.
  • Report on costing progress, highlight gaps, and adjust efforts to meet proposal deadlines.
  • Participate in Price-to-Win meetings and assist Purchasing in building relationships with new suppliers.
  • Understand in-house and subcontractor manufacturing capabilities and support Purchasing in meeting diverse business volume obligations.
  • Recommend cost control and reduction strategies and actively support cross-functional team efforts.

Required Skills:

  • Proven experience as a Cost Estimator, with knowledge of cost estimating methodologies and industry standards.
  • Experience in design and fabrication drawing review, with the ability to read and understand Mechanical Engineering drawings.
  • Strong understanding of fabrication processes such as machining, welding, and bending, with a minimum of 5 years of related industry experience.
