Job Description:
Ready to put your skills to work on Technical or Engineering projects? Are you
great with people and have willingness to work hard to get the job done?
Parsons is seeking a candidate with a desire to enhance the fabric of our
community.
Role :
The job has two main phases. The first being preparing the pre-tender cost to
complete for a transportation project that had commenced but has been on hold
for a few years and is restarting. This will include interaction with the
wider team to glean the information required and referring to best practice
and historical data to accurately estimate the costs. This cost to complete
estimate will be used in project approvals. Post award the role will shift to
post contract award commercial and QS duties.
Performs a variety of standard estimating activities (individual or as part of
a team) on an assigned project/program. The Estimator at this level has
experience in applying standard estimating practices, techniques processes and
procedures, and demonstrates familiarity in applying company policies and
assigned project/program practices and procedures. Typical responsibilities
are focused on a variety of ancillary estimating tasks. Although the incumbent
may perform some higher-level estimating assignments, this work does not
encompass a sufficient amount of his/her time to warrant exempt status.
Responsibilities:
Prepares material takeoffs on assigned contract, project, or program from
engineering drawings, plans, and specifications. Reviews takeoffs prepared by
others to check for completeness, appropriate definition, and accuracy.
Prepares detailed breakdown structures (WBS) for contracts, projects, or
elements of a program sufficient to define the scope to be delivered. Defines
the specific scope intended by the contract documents, project development
requirements and/or the program element components, systems and subsystems.
Prepares and summarizes the bases of estimate (BOE) development, including
estimate scope, estimate method of development, pricing utilized, labor,
material and equipment rates included in the estimate, assumptions and
exclusions, escalation, parametric comparisons using previous estimate data
from similar projects, estimate quality control (QC) review and results, and
estimate conclusion and recommendation. Delivers a complete and comprehensive
estimate of probable cost based on the proposed contract documents inclusive
of contract terms and conditions. Defines, details and estimates the cost of
contract general conditions and job cost in compliance with the planned
execution to accomplish total contract delivery.
Utilizes parametric historical estimate data to develop a reasonable estimate
of probable cost, based on high level of scope definition and preliminary
intent for a capital asset in relation to an order of magnitude (PM)
development. Defines intended scope, function and output of a specific system,
service or asset using the basic "top down" WBS development approach.
Utilizes the "bottoms up" approach in the development of probable contract
cost, and compares that cost with data from previous contracts similar in
nature when the estimate task required detail development. Develops scope
sheets and request for bid or quotation from potential service providers,
inclusive of internet, telephone and/or written provided data.
Assists the Estimating Leads for historical data and estimate database
management with the accumulation, evaluation, and documentation of cost data
retrieved from completed discrete design and/or construction contracts,
inclusive of work activity, delivery means and methods, productivity, activity
durations, supervision and craft man-hour utilization.
Reviews contract documents to access contract risk and significant exposure to
estimated cost if potential risks are experienced. Assigns reasonable maximum
cost and schedule exposure resulting from potential risks.
Provides technical guidance to lower-level Associate Estimators. Collaborates
with small estimate teams comprised of other Estimators and Associate
Estimators with the outcome being a final deliverable that meets Customer and
Client requirements and expectations.
May deliver quality controlled estimates for the project/program assigned.
Performs other responsibilities associated with this position as may be
appropriate.
Qualifications:
* Bachelor's Degree in Quantity Surveying or similar course from a recognized university.
* A minimum of 10 years relevant experience in large scale infrastructure projects and involving typical estimating activities. Previous experience using estimating database supported software.
