• Drawings & docs: Print/mark up shop drawings/as-built sets, maintain document control (revisions, transmittals), and prepare method statements with engineers.
• Materials & procurement: Track material submittals/approvals, delivery schedules, and store checks; coordinate with suppliers for timely call-offs.
