• Ensure all field and design documentation is processed and stored in ICON’s designated project management systems (Procore, Smartsheets, etc.).
• Support the development and maintenance of project schedules, coordinating design deliverables with construction milestones.
• Assist field teams with interpreting drawings, verifying dimensions, and ensuring that work aligns with design intent.
• Participate in site walks and quality reviews to confirm that design and construction coordination issues are promptly addressed.
• Help identify potential constructability challenges and propose proactive solutions in collaboration with the Project Manager and Construction Manager.
• Work closely with ICON’s Design, Construction, Procurement, and Print Operations teams to ensure efficient project delivery.
• Facilitate clear, consistent, and professional communication between internal and external stakeholders.
• Support project closeout by compiling as-built documentation, warranty information, and turnover packages.
