Description

This position requires close, seamless collaboration with the larger Estimating and Preconstruction team members based in Kansas City (KC). This is an internally focused position with little to no external subcontractor or vendor contact.

Responsibilities

Internal Bottoms-Up Estimating: Develop detailed "bottoms-up" direct cost estimates, including material, labor, productivity rates, and equipment—for EIC scopes of work.

Design & Narrative Analysis: Thoroughly study, analyze, and understand design documents, engineering drawings, blueprints, technical specifications, and project narratives.

Quantity Take-offs (QTO): Perform highly accurate, detailed quantity take-offs from early-stage conceptual sketches through fully detailed construction drawings using software such as On-Screen Takeoff or Bluebeam.

Software Integration: Utilize and input take-off quantities, pricing data, and historical cost data into estimating databases and tools, with a solid preference for InEight Estimating software.

Basis of Estimate (BOE) Development:



Take an integral role in writing and organizing the "Basis of Estimate" (BOE) for assigned EIC scopes. Clearly outline core assumptions, clarifications, and exclusions, particularly where design documents are incomplete, vague, or in early stages (Class 5, 4, or 3 estimates).

Cross-Geographic Collaboration: Partner daily with remote project teams and Estimating/Preconstruction counterparts in the Kansas City (KC) headquarters & Regional Offices (RO’s) to ensure alignment on scope, methodology, and schedule.

Internal Team Reviews: Participate actively in internal project estimate reviews, validating quantity variances, design inconsistencies, constructability concerns, pricing structures, and potential scope gaps.

Value Engineering Assistance: Identify, analyze, and propose alternative construction materials, methodologies, or options to support value engineering and cost optimization.

Historical Database Support: Supp
