* **Coordinate procurement and contract administration**. Support the procurement of design consultants, vendors, and contractors, and manage contracts and consultant and contractor performance to ensure project requirements, deliverables, schedules, and budgets are met.
* **Oversee construction quality, safety, and compliance**. Conduct regular site visits and review project deliverables and construction work to verify conformance with approved plans, specifications, applicable building codes, and federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and City policies.
* **Plan and coordinate bureau and tenant moves**. Manage moves of varying sizes and complexity within City-owned and leased facilities, primarily office environments. Coordinate with bureau customers, City Technology staff, and other partners to support space transitions, minimize operational disruptions, and ensure furniture, equipment, and related installations are completed effectively.
