Methods and Constructability Manager Full-Time

Role Description

Initial travel to Milan, Italy for 3 months then to site in Mozambique. Willing to work Camp site location with fix rotation.

Mission

As Methods and Constructability Manager must have knowledge and coordination skills for the working team on the following subjects:

• Constructability Analysis: Evaluate construction plans to ensure they are practical, cost-effective, and can be successfully implemented within the project constraints.
• Value Engineering: Explore opportunities for value engineering, finding ways to optimize construction processes, reduce costs, and enhance overall project efficiency.
• Collaboration with Design Teams: Work closely with design teams to provide input on constructability during the design phase and identify potential challenges or improvements.
• Methodology Development: Develop and implement construction methodologies that maximize efficiency, safety, and quality throughout the construction process.
• Identify potential construction risks and develop strategies to mitigate them, ensuring that the project progresses smoothly.
• Contribute to project planning by providing insights into construction sequencing, scheduling, and resource allocation.
• Provide guidance and support to the construction team, addressing any constructability challenges that may arise during the construction phase.

Further Tasks

• Provide the guidelines for the definition of construction execution plan and its strategies, such as subcontracting plans, logistic and constructability studies, during the earlier stages of the project.
• Participate in defining the overall project planning and scheduling for construction activities, with the support of the expertise of construction organization key positions.
• Ensure the application and, where not already arranged in the planning phase, the issue of suitable procedures for the definition of working methods and site regulations.
• Ensure that the activities are carried out within the planned time and costs, coordinating and instructing the construction team accordingly and intervening with corrective actions in case of deviations or difficulties.
• Analyze all information regarding the progress of the work, indicating the causes of deviations between the program and the work carried out and propose solutions and/or request instructions to overcome these problems.
• Ensure the implementation of recovery plans, if needed, including the re-planning of the activities and the reassignment of the scope of work to the subcontractors, or intervening with direct hiring personnel.
• Ensure the progress data gathering and analysis in order to prepare the work progress reports.
• Ensure effective interdisciplinary coordination verifying adequacy and consistency of construction strategies. Take necessary technical decisions in case of unresolved conflicts between disciplines, ensuring the optimization of construction sequences.
• Ensure and coordinate the mobilization and demobilization of the assigned resources, in accordance with the project planned time frame and project needs.
• Coordinate the execution of multidisciplinary construction activities and manage activities assigned to subcontractors, providing the guidelines for the execution of the works and monitoring the adequacy of manpower and equipment to face the construction activities.
• Give technical support to project management to evaluate any variation requests.
• Ensure the achievement of the established construction milestones, including the mechanical completion objectives.
• Manage the interfaces with the Client for all the matters relevant to construction activities.
• Manage the interfaces with engineering departments for drawings and materials availability.
• Ensure that the lessons learnt for construction are clearly identified, granting the monitoring of plants performances to capitalize experiences and identifying areas of improvement.
• Ensure the continuous monitoring of construction efficiencies and productivity factors.
• Ensure/manage the Mechanical Completion activity by “System and Sub-System” as clearly identified by Commissioning Manager, monitoring the schedule, Quality certification, punch list, up to final handover to Commissioning/Client.
• Define monthly construction work-front studies based on Engineering/Procurement data and Site conditions to support Subcontractors and Direct Hire manpower.
• Set objectives, measurable targets and clear responsibilities for all Supervision staff involved in the Project.
• Ensure the implementation of HSE procedures for construction and pre-commissioning.
• Ensure the implementation of site quality control plan.
• Ensure the management of construction budget through continuous analysis of monthly payments against the achieved progress and the budget assigned for construction activities and site services, ensuring the correct cash-flow to the all parties involved during construction activities.
• Report to the Project Director and Project Manager on matters relevant to Construction Execution.
• Ensure review of contractual documents construction related, interfacing with other project functions.
