Support project planning activities including sequencing, constructability reviews, temporary works considerations, and risk management. Assist with procurement activities including preparation of technical scopes, tender reviews, supplier evaluations, and subcontractor coordination. Provide technical support during construction including RFIs, site queries, design clarifications, change management, and NCR resolution.
