Need help with Estimates, construction cost analysis, Supplier coordination and project coordination ?
No worries, I've got your back!
WHAT I BRING TO THE TABLE
* Accurate and Reliable Estimates
I cross-check the quantities against the construction drawings to ensure there are no errors on calculations and ensure that the applied Units of measurements are accurate
*Flag discrepancies
I take pride in spotting discrepancies early by flagging it through RFI.
*Labor rate analysis
I analyze labor hours against industry production rates to benchmark subcontractor quotes. If a contractor's labor cost is too high, I use rate breakdowns to negotiate lower pricing. If it's too low, I catch it early so we avoid subcontractor default mid-project.
*Proactive Subcontractor & Vendor Procurement
I maintain an organized vendor database and active quote tracking logs. I don't just send out quote requests; I actively call and follow up with subcontractors to ensure estimates, lead times, and material availability are secured well before project deadlines.
*Variation & Change Order Management
I verify on-site scope changes and cost variances against original budgets. By reviewing change orders against original drawings and BOQs, I make sure we only pay for legitimate extra work and that client approvals are documented before tasks begin.
*Material Price Benchmarking & Sourcing
I research and compare material costs across multiple regional and overseas suppliers (including bulk imports). This ensures we get competitive pricing without sacrificing quality or risking lead-time delays.
*Tech & AI-Driven Efficiency
I combine traditional QS tools like Bluebeam, PlanSwift, and MS Excel with modern AI platforms (like ChatGPT) to automate daily task logs, draft professional vendor correspondence, and summarize site updates—freeing up the developer to focus on high-level growth.
*Daily Progress & Bottleneck Briefings
I highlight overdue tasks, pending permits, and critical decision points so the owner always knows what needs their immediate sign-off.
*Project Scheduling
Having knowledge on construction methodologies, I can give suggestions or ideas on how to keep jobs on schedule and within budget.
