- Plan and lead pre-construction strategy meetings and make recommendations to the owner and the consultant about procurement options
- Prepare site logistics plans, construction management plans, trade package strategies, early works plans, and sequencing options
- Assist with preparation of Division 01 General Requirements documents and make recommendation for project-specific considerations
- Visit site to review options for renovation projects and assist with preparation of feasibility studies
