Consult with clients, suppliers, contractors, and other stakeholders to clarify project requirements, develop estimates, and resolve pricing issues.
Build and maintain a database of suppliers, contractors, and subcontractors, negotiating competitive pricing to support project profitability.
Collaborate with internal teams to obtain the information and resources required to develop accurate estimates.
Maintain and manage a centralized cost-estimating database and ensure historical project data is incorporated into future estimates.
Review completed projects by comparing estimated costs with actual costs and identifying discrepancies.
Recommend improvements to estimating procedures and processes to minimize cost variances and improve accuracy.
Monitor cost trends and provide insights to support cost control, operational efficiency, and continuous improvement.
Perform additional duties as required to support business objectives.
