Create scalable quality metrics, KPIs, dashboards, and audit systems to measure program effectiveness and project compliance.
Lead root cause analysis initiatives and corrective/preventive action programs to minimize deficiencies, rework, and operational risk.
Partner with project executives, operations leaders, project managers, superintendents, and field teams to ensure quality standards are integrated throughout all phases of construction.
