Senior Contract Administrator
7 days ago
A Senior Contract Administrator in a heavy civil construction and progressive design-build project is responsible for developing and implementing structured processes to manage changes to the project scope, budget, timeline, and resources, ensuring minimal disruption and maintaining project goals. This role requires a blend of technical construction knowledge and strong "people-side" change management skills due to the complex stakeholder environment of PDB projects.
Key Responsibilities:
- Develop and implement change management strategy:
Apply a structured methodology and set of processes (e.g., formal change requests, impact analyses, approval workflows) to support the adoption of required changes across the project lifecycle. - Identify and document changes:
Recognize potential changes (e.g., design modifications, unforeseen site conditions, regulatory updates, client requests) and ensure they are formally recorded through a change request or change order system. - Conduct impact analysis:
Assess the potential effects of proposed changes on the project's cost, schedule, quality, safety, and resource allocation, often in coordination with designers, contractors, and clients. - Facilitate the approval process:
Manage the review and authorization process with relevant stakeholders, including senior management and the client, to ensure alignment with overall project objectives before implementation begins. - Coordinate implementation:
Ensure approved changes are integrated into the project plan and executed effectively. This involves collaborating closely with project managers and various subcontractors to ensure all aspects are updated and everyone involved is notified and coordinated. - Communicate effectively:
Serve as the primary point of contact for change-related information, ensuring transparent and consistent communication among all stakeholders to manage expectations and minimize resistance. - Monitor and track progress:
Define and measure success metrics, monitor change progress, track issues, and maintain meticulous documentation and change logs for all alterations for reference and accountability. - Mitigate risk and manage resistance:
Identify potential risks and anticipate and manage resistance to changes, developing strategies and providing support/training to help teams adapt to new processes or designs.
Qualifications and Skills:
- A bachelor's degree in a relevant engineering field, construction management, project management, commerce, law or a related field is required.
- Significant change management experience in large infrastructure, heavy civil construction projects delivered under a progressive design build or alliance model is essential
- A strong understanding of construction processes, contracts (especially PDB contract clauses for handling changes), technical drawings, and relevant software/technology (e.g., BIM, project management software).
- Exceptional communication, leadership, problem-solving, and negotiation skills. Emotional intelligence and adaptability are also crucial for managing diverse stakeholders and unexpected challenges.
- Professional certification, such as PMP or a specific change management certification, is desired.
This role is critical for navigating the inherent complexities and frequent changes in heavy civil PDB projects, ensuring alignment and successful project outcomes
