Prepare bid packages, solicit pricing, and compare subcontractor proposals for scope gaps and exclusions. Review drawings for inconsistencies, constructability concerns, and code compliance. Produce floor plans, elevations, kitchen and bath layouts, and as-built drawings for permits and project execution. Help apply for permits and join preconstruction meetings with owners, project managers, and designers. Maintain estimates and cost databases in Buildertrend and track changes between revisions.
