Primary Objective

Lead and oversee prefab/modular construction projects from initial design coordination through factory production, transportation, on-site installation, and final handover — ensuring delivery on time, within budget, to quality/safety standards, while maximizing the efficiency advantages of prefabrication.

Key Responsibilities

1. Project Planning & Pre-Construction Phase

• Collaborate with clients and manufacturers to review/optimize designs for manufacturability and modular breakdown.
• Develop detailed project schedules that align factory production timelines with site readiness and installation sequencing.
• Prepare and manage budgets, including off-site fabrication costs, transportation, craneage, and on-site assembly.

2. Coordination of Off-Site Fabrication

• Act as primary liaison between the construction firm and the prefab/modular manufacturing facility.
• Monitor factory production progress, review shop drawings, BIM models, and QA/QC processes in the plant.
• Manage change orders and design revisions to minimize factory re-work.
• Ensure modules meet specifications, building codes, and client requirements before release from factory.

3. Logistics & Transportation Management

• Plan and coordinate module transportation (permits, routing, escorts for oversize loads, timing to avoid site conflicts).
• Schedule deliveries to align with site staging and crane availability.

4. On-Site Installation & Assembly Oversight

• Supervise module setting, walls, and panels to make sure schedule is maintained
• Coordinate subcontractors/trades for on-site integration (foundations, slabs, envelope closures).
• Manage site logistics, crane operations, and temporary facilities during module erection.

5. Budget, Cost Control & Financial Management

• Track costs across factory production, transport, and field installation.
• Approve invoices, manage change orders, and forecast cash flow.
• Achieve or improve target gross margins by reducing waste, rework, and schedule slippage.

6. Schedule Management & Progress Tracking

• Maintain and update master project schedule.
• Conduct regular progress meetings (factory, site, client).
• Proactively address delays (weather, supply chain, design changes).

7. Quality Assurance, Safety & Compliance

• Ensure adherence to building codes, modular certification standards, and local regulations.
• Oversee safety programs at both factory and site (often different protocols).
• Manage inspections, testing, and commissioning of prefab components and final building systems.

8. Communication Management

• Serve as main point of contact for owners/clients, architects, engineers, and the plant.
• Provide regular status reports and forecasts.
• Lead project meetings and resolve conflicts between factory, transport, and field teams.

9. Project Closeout
