JOB DESCRIPTIONPrimary responsibilities and duties are to function as both QC Manager and Construction Manager over all phases of construction on Victory Base Complex. The position is unique in my experience due to the fact Quality and Construction organizationsare exclusive to each other due to issues with execution. Fluor proposed this position to our client, USACE (US Army Corps of Engineers) to assist in getting the Construction Group “stood up” while still providing Quality oversight.
Our efforts have been successful on both fronts. We have managed to get the Construction arm on track and maintained quality in our execution. Project sizes vary from $15k to $250k in size. Currently supervising a staff of three in Quality, and six in Construction. Field work force currently numbers 260 persons comprised of Sri Lankan, Indian, Filipino, Iraqi, Nepalese, and Jordanian nationalities.
