• Provide clear updates on outstanding BIM actions and required stakeholder decisions.
• Enforce project naming conventions, classification systems, coordinate systems, and approved data structures.
• Coordinate with design teams regarding model corrections, technical queries, and design modifications.
• Confirm that infrastructure models align with approved drawings, specifications, and construction requirements.
• Support the extraction of drawings, schedules, quantities, sections, and technical information from coordinated models.
• Assist site supervision teams in interpreting BIM information and resolving model-related construction issues.
• Identify digital delivery risks early and recommend practical solutions to reduce delay and rework.
• Maintain secure and accurate digital records throughout the project lifecycle.
• Attend Day 1 onboarding at an AECOM office as a condition of employment.
