Resulted in minimized costs associated with rework.♦ Identified potential claim risks early; created and implemented a documentation plan that refuted and reduced a multimillion-dollar subcontractor claim by more than 70 percent.♦ Developed and implemented new documentation process that accurately assigned request for information (RFI) numbers with time and material vouchers, which significantly reduced the number of non-reimbursable change orders and allowed for better cost management.♦ Initiated design and conceptual estimates of owner-requested changes that generated ~$350,000 additional fee.♦ Attained more than 2 million man-hours safely worked without a lost time incident and received the Company Safety Excellence Award.♦ Visited the manufacturer, expedited paralleling gear equipment delivery by six weeks and at no additional cost in order to meet phase one schedule goals.♦ Developed creative solution to shave two weeks from the schedule through constructing a trench box beneath the paralleling gear housekeeping pad, which allowed installation of medium-voltage feeder cables prior to paralleling gear delivery and placement in order to meet phase one milestone completion date.

Oversaw electrical and special systems construction for multiple concurrent healthcare projects with minimal supervision, which led to a promotion as onsite manager for the company’s single largest project in San Diego. Managed materials and subcontractors, plus tracked and projected labor production and rates.Select Achievements♦ Leveraged strong relationship with nurse call system manufacturer to substitute and upgrade product post-bid to benefit all parties; resulted in facility receiving a superior product at reduced cost by allowing the manufacturer to showcase the hospital.♦ Negotiated equipment and subcontractor buyouts, resulting in a savings of 7 percent of the total budget.♦ Developed and implemented plan for prefabricating custom headwall components, which increased labor productivity and quality while mitigating rework costs.♦ Executed relocation of campus’ 12kV and 480V feeders safely, on schedule, and with minimal outages while meeting OSHPD’s redundancy requirements.♦ Estimated and negotiated more than $6 million in change orders and increased company revenue.♦ Nearly doubled expected profit due to successful contract management and change order negotiation.♦ Re-sequenced phasing of the electrical distribution system installation in order to meet hospital operational goals.♦ Maintained positive relationship with Construction Manager, leading to additional contracts.
