• Developed project plans based on inputs from sales, engineering, plant manager, installers and clients. • Lead the drafting/design team (both in-house and outsourced) in creating shop drawings that meet the requirements of the client as well as our production and installation teams.• Estimated the cost of credits/extras as required due to changes in schedule, scope and quality requirements. Negotiated these cost changes with suppliers, subcontractors and clients.• Create installation plans with our installers and clients, communicate the schedule with our production team and develop the sequence of required shop tickets to maintain said schedule. Review this with the drafting/design team and provide the support necessary to ensure it is met.• Review the project site conditions to ensure installation runs smoothly. Regularly review product installation as it progresses to ensure conformance with project specifications and client expectations. • Co-ordinate our servicing subcontractor activities with our installation personnel, the client and other subcontractors on the project site.• Created an estimate program tailored to Coreslab’s new Total Precast Structures brand as the old program was not adequate for total precast. This program segregated all products and site activities to provide clarity and ease of review/revision for downstream users.• Produced and continue to develop a project management handbook based on policies, procedures and best practices created as our projects evolved. This includes standard operating procedure for each step in the project process and links to all required document templates within this process.• Created a specification for the Total Precast Structures brand. This specification outlines the minimum levels of finish quality that can be expected on our products as well as the other minimum standards which are to be met (tolerance, experience, shop drawing specs, etc.).

Reporting to the District Sales Manager, Ontario Region, responsible for managing sales of steel deck to deck installation contractors within Ontario.• Exposed Nucor to nine new (300% increase) customers within the first four months of employment resulting in an increase in steel deck estimate volume of 125% (5,429,207 sq ft vs. 2,415,400 sq ft) between June and September of 2014 over the same period of 2013.• Increased steel deck sales volume among existing customers by 120% (392,035 sq ft vs. 177,876 sq ft) between July and September of 2014 over the same period of 2013.• Performed estimating duties after only two weeks with the company when one of the estimators quit without notice. This resulted in the acquisition of the largest school project of the year to date. The joist portion and the deck portions of the estimate were accurate to within 1% (57 tons estimated to 57.421 tons actual for the joists and 50,500 square feet estimated and 50,227 square feet actual for the deck).• Researched the steel deck market (GTA) to determine what contractors were performing the installation of deck and should be targeted, what product types were required and what the prevailing market prices were.• Prepared a marketing plan based on the results of my market research activities. This plan includes product, price, competitor and customer analyses, a SWOT analysis and an action plan covering the next six months.

Reporting to the Sales Manager, responsible for managing the sales of precast concrete hollowcore & solid slabs, bleachers, beams, columns, walls and stairs.• Sold several high profile and large scale projects including the Ron Joyce Stadium at McMaster University, the Pan Am Games Aquatics Centre and Field House, the Hillcrest Reservoir and the York-Durham Southeast Trunk Sewer System. Each of these projects involved specialty products not typically provided by Coreslab and therefore required special attention to detail to ensure we met all technical specifications and special care to ensure our clients that we were capable of exceeding their expectations.• Due to successes with the above mentioned projects, appointed as lead on the tendering of the Tim Horton’s Stadium project, the largest and most valuable in Coreslab Ontario’s history. Led a team including external and internal engineers to develop the most efficient design, installation personnel to develop the erection plan and estimators to ensure the most accurate quantity take-off was completed. Worked closely with senior management and accounting personnel to apply the most appropriate mark-up considering the scope, complexity and duration of the project. Liaised with our client throughout the entire process to ensure we met all of the stringent requirements of the project programme provided by the owner.• Reviewed quotations and applied the required mark-up having considered the project type, scope and duration as well as our history with the customer all while ensuring it was consistent with Coreslab’s overall sales strategy. Negotiated price and schedule for prospective projects with the goal of meeting the customer’s requirements without compromising Coreslab’s position.• Engaged architects, engineers, contractors, building inspectors and students in lunch-and-learn presentations/seminars. Each presentation was tailored to suit the particular audience addressed based on their level of knowledge.

Reporting to the Sales Manager, responsible for material and labour estimates of structural products on a wide assortment of construction projects.• Quickly and accurately performed quantity estimates on precast concrete projects ranging from $5,000 - $11m. These projects ranged across the construction spectrum from ICI and residential to infrastructure including schools, hotels, condominiums, stadia, arenas, single family residences, water treatment facilities and bridges.• Often visited client’s offices and jobsites to obtain tender documents, reviewing all drawings and specifications and providing concise information to our installation company so they could price effectively.• Estimated costs of materials, labour and overhead on major projects. Collaborated with in-house engineers to develop the most economical designs on design/build and preliminary design estimates and with production departments to ensure project schedules could be met.• In collaboration with the plant manager, created system for estimating solid precast products without having to obtain the labour inputs from him. This streamlined the process significantly at a time when the volume of estimates was becoming overwhelming. Also worked closely with the plant manager and the accounting department to develop and consistently update a database of material costs. • Created an estimate program using Excel to generate quick budget estimates. The program would use a few key inputs such as project type, size and location and would return a result based on a comparison to estimates completed to date.• Due to product knowledge and communication skills was quickly selected as Coreslab’s representative at industry tradeshows throughout the GTA.
