Having accurate costs before putting boots on the ground is essential for successful EPC project delivery. I enjoy working with my hands and calculating requirements for construction projects. With a wealth of knowledge in electrical systems, I've tackled hands-on electrical field work, from machine installs to repairs and building needs, all up to NEC code. I've successfully juggled parts, labor, and project management to budget for industrial/commercial power distribution and control systems ranging from building automation to lighting. Additionally, I've pioneered enhanced preventative maintenance programs to increase uptime on machinery to avoid any unplanned downtime. We used infrared cameras to identify problems in machinery and power distribution. As a natural leader, I train apprentices on installations, building repairs, and other electrical tasks, passing along knowledge to the next generation. As an electrical estimator, I oversee project estimation, budgeting, and subcontracting for a wide variety of projects, including renewable energy, wastewater treatment, and various industrial process and utility projects in the food & beverage market. My role is pivotal in expediting the estimating and subcontracting process. ▪️ Review design documents to estimate accurately for project scope and completeness▪️ Network with subcontractors to increase proposal submissions, securing reliable partners▪️ Maintain professional relationships with subcontractors for clear communication and timely responses▪️ Track estimates and bids so that project progress aligns with planned timelines and costs▪️ Determine cost impacts of design changes, providing accurate and timely assessments▪️ Communicate potential issues to design and construction teams, preventing delays and cost overruns▪️ Review contractor proposals for completeness, covering all project aspects▪️ Conduct scope reviews with teams for alignment and understanding of requirements▪️ Coordinate with departments and attend meetings, fostering collaboration and communication▪️ Compile cost information in Excel, presenting clear financial data for leadership approval Please connect with me or reach out with any electrical estimation questions.
