Full Job Description

The Estimator - Mission Critical coordinates complete, qualified estimates and proposals for ALL 5'S Specialty Scopes: structural ceilings, ACT, interior/exterior panel systems, hot isle/cold isle containment (HACS), raised access floors and security fencing.

General Responsibilities

Coordinate all aspects of assigned estimates and proposals, including document review, quantity takeoff, labor, material, equipment, vendor and subcontractor pricing, logistics, schedule, risk, and final proposal preparation.
Review structural, architectural, civil, mechanical, plumbing, electrical, low-voltage, specifications, reports, addenda, and other contract documents applicable to the assigned scope.
Develop the estimate plan, milestone schedule, responsibilities, bid coverage strategy, and internal review dates in coordination with the project team.
Supervise, delegate work to, and develop Junior Estimators as assigned; review takeoffs, pricing, scope coverage, and estimate documentation for completeness and accuracy.
Build and maintain productive relationships with clients, general contractors, design professionals, suppliers, subcontractors, manufacturers, and internal operations teams.
Perform other duties that may not be listed here but are part of the role's assigned responsibilities.

Estimate Development and Preconstruction

Conduct an initial bid-document review and develop a thorough understanding of the project, delivery method, bid requirements, scope boundaries, schedule, site constraints, and commercial terms.
Prepare detailed quantity surveys and takeoffs that capture all labor, material, equipment, accessories, waste, freight, taxes, escalation, supervision, logistics, and temporary-work requirements.
Establish labor crews, production rates, work hours, equipment needs, access assumptions, sequencing, and means-and-methods considerations with input from field and operations leadership.
Solicit suppliers and subcontractors early enough to obtain complete coverage; issue clear bid invitations, answer scope questions, track responses, and follow up on missing or incomplete quotations.
Evaluate and level quotations for scope completeness, exclusions, alternates, lead times, freight, taxes, escalation, warranty, bonding, and compliance with the contract documents.
Develop clarifications, inclusions, exclusions, assumptions, alternates, value-engineering options, and bid qualifications that accurately communicate the proposed scope.
Maintain current drawing, specification, addendum, bulletin, and revision control throughout the estimate and incorporate all changes into takeoffs, pricing, and proposal documents.
Build the estimate in ALL 5'S job-cost format using standard cost codes so the approved budget can be transferred to operations and compared with actual production.

Bid Finalization and Offer Handoff

Review labor productions, equipment productions, material pricing, subcontractor pricing, indirect costs, risk allowances, and estimate strategy with the Chief Estimator before final approval.
Complete estimate reconciliation, scope checks, quote leveling, subcontractor comparisons, schedule review, and final document audit before submission.
Prepare accurate, professional proposals and scope letters that comply with bid instructions and clearly present pricing, alternates, clarifications, exclusions, and schedule assumptions.
Participate in client scope reviews, bid interviews, post-bid discussions, value-engineering exercises, and estimate revisions as requested.
Lead the estimate-to-operations handoff for awarded work, including scope, budget, cost codes, production assumptions, quotations, buyout recommendations, long-lead items, logistics, schedule, risks, and outstanding decisions.

Qualifications

3 to 7 years of relevant construction experience, including at least three years of estimating or preconstruction experience.
High school diploma or equivalent required; degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, or a related field preferred. Equivalent relevant experience will be considered.
Experience estimating data centers, semiconductor facilities, hospitals, laboratories, advanced manufacturing, or other mission-critical/technically complex projects preferred.
Experience with raised-access flooring, containment, structural ceilings, security fencing, accessories, coordinated overhead systems, or comparable specialty scopes.
Ability to interpret owner standards, architectural and structural documents, MEP/controls drawings, security requirements, equipment layouts, BIM coordination information, and commissioning or turnover requirements.
Working knowledge of phased turnover, long-lead procurement, secure-site logistics, controlled environments, delegated design, seismic supports, and mission-critical quality expectations.
Experience with digital takeoff and estimating platforms such as Bluebeam, On-Screen Takeoff, BuildingConnected, QuickBid or comparable systems preferred.
Understanding of Scheduling software such as MS Project and/or Primavera P6

Skills and Abilities

Ability to work accurately at a fast pace under multiple deadlines while maintaining professional composure and timely follow-up.
Develop and maintain long-term client relationships that support repeat business opportunities.
Strong organization, time management, analytical ability, and attention to detail.
Understanding of drawing reviews, specification reviews and front end document reviews.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to present estimates, explain assumptions, and resolve scope questions with clients, vendors, and internal teams.
Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Excel, Outlook, and Word and fluency reading, quantifying, and analyzing construction drawings and specifications.
Ability to develop and evaluate labor productions, material pricing, equipment costs, supplier quotations, subcontractor coverage, logistics, schedules, and commercial risk.
Desire to teach and mentor Junior Estimators, Project Engineers, and field employees and to learn from operations and completed-project results.
Positive attitude and willingness to adopt new estimating technology, digital takeoff tools, cost databases, and process improvements.
