Track project progress and follow up on outstanding decisions, approvals, submissions, and action items.
Work with project teams to resolve technical, design, permitting, and construction-related issues.
Coordinate workflows across design development, engineering, permitting, bidding, and construction.
Organize design reviews, client presentations, milestone submissions, permitting activities, and construction-phase services.
Serve as a primary point of contact for clients, providing project updates, addressing concerns, and maintaining clear expectations.
