Project Manager assigned to Lam ResearchNotable Project – Retrofit of a newly purchase building which include 30,000 sf of office and cubicle tenant improvement and a 10,000 sf Fitness Center. For the office TI, starting with architect’s conceptual layout, refined it to include break rooms, printer areas, and mail stations; chaired all progress review meetings with Lam stakeholders; led bid walks, and participated in the bid review and GC selection; total responsibility for the construction coordination; for the fitness center, I am especially proud to have reduced the equipment budget from $238k to $79k by re-purposing of Lam owned equipment, purchase refurbished equipment, and purchase new to complete the equipment package. Another favorite accomplishment is the online search for a reception desk that is complimentary to the Fitness Center theme. The architect loved the selection. This resulted a savings of $10,000 versus using our furniture vendor proposal at a cost $14,000. The Fitness Center is now ready for Grand Opening. The cost of both projects is $7.5M.
