Nova Group, Inc.
Overview
Primary Function:
We are seeking an experienced Electrical Estimator to join our team. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in medium-voltage electrical construction estimating, excellent analytical skills, and the ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously. The Electrical Construction Estimator will be responsible for preparing accurate take-offs and comprehensive cost estimates for various construction projects, ensuring that all estimates are competitive and align with project requirements. Typical Duties
Analyzing and comprehending government specifications, drawings, schedules, and all other project documents. Identifying technical issues in written format to submit pre-bid clarifications. Creating accurate, detailed take-off itemization of the electrical materials and equipment required. Communicating with suppliers, subcontractors and the internal team to formulate accurate estimates. Estimating labor, material, and production requirements to compute the overall cost of projects. Travel to participate at certain site visits to gather data for accurate estimation. Working with the estimate team to develop a schedule for project completion that effectively allocates resources to the electrical activities. Maintaining a database of updated electrical production rates and pricing, including the latest industry changes and current market pricing on commodities. Qualifications and Skills
Knowledge of electrical systems (particularly medium voltage), their typical components, and installation procedures to accurately estimate project scopes and costs. Strong math and analytical skills to compile and analyze cost data, and to calculate time, materials, and labor required for a project. Exceptional communication skills to clearly present electrical cost and interface in the entire estimate. Detail-oriented with the ability to understand complex blueprints, technical diagrams, and specifications to ensure accurate cost estimations. Problem-solving skills to adjust estimates and proposals in response to unforeseen project complications or changes in scope. Knowledge of electrical codes and regulations; familiarity with government standards is a plus. Experience with estimating software (HCSS preferred; Bluebeam and Microsoft Office programs). Teamwork and collaboration skills to work with estimators and other project professionals. Ability to conduct research to locate and contact suitable vendors, initiate early communication to outside services, perform and compare quantity take-offs, and provide updates on amendments or changes. Analyze vendor scope of work and quotations for compliance with requirements and prepare detailed comparisons of multiple vendor quotes. Educational and Experience
Two to four-year construction-related degree or equivalent combinations of technical training and/or related field experience. Experience in electrical construction estimating with proven estimating strategies and techniques, plus successful construction purchase orders and subcontract contracts are necessary. Organizational and decision-making/problem-solving skills are essential.
