• Partner with design, construction, procurement, finance, legal, IT, security, workplace design, facility management, and other internal teams to align controls information with business priorities and decisions;
• Support procurement planning by integrating long-lead material requirements, bid packages, contract milestones, commitments, and market escalation assumptions into cost and schedule forecasts;
• Review architectural, MEP, civil, structural, and infrastructure scopes to confirm that design progress, quantities, phasing assumptions, and construction sequencing are accurately reflected in controls plans;
• Monitor contractor progress and reporting, validate supporting documentation, and challenge unsupported assumptions, incomplete schedule logic, or unexplained cost and productivity variances;
• Lead project controls reviews, schedule workshops, risk sessions, and forecast meetings, driving accountability for action items and corrective measures;
• Prepare project controls documentation required for internal operational reviews, audits, tax inquiries, asset transfers, funding approvals, and other corporate governance requirements;
• Develop, coach, and coordinate project controls staff and external resources, promoting consistent application of standards and continuous improvement across the program;
• Coordinate with legal, procurement, and project leadership on claims avoidance, dispute documentation, change substantiation, and commercial-risk reporting as required;
• Maintain complete, auditable program controls records, including baselines, forecasts, progress evidence, change logs, risk registers, and decision records;
• Ensure all Nashville campus projects operate with transparent, reliable controls in support of approved scope, budget, quality, schedule, sustainability, and long-term campus objectives.
