Tendering & Civil Engineer

Tendering & Estimation (Pre-Construction):

• Tender Document Analysis:

  • Thoroughly review and understand complex tender documents, specifications, drawings, and Bills of Quantities (BOQ) for civil engineering projects (e.g., roads, bridges, buildings, water infrastructure).

  • Analyze contractual terms and conditions to identify potential risks, ambiguities, and opportunities within the bid.

• Cost Estimation & Pricing:

  • Prepare detailed and accurate cost estimates for all project components, including materials, labor, equipment, subcontractors, overheads, and profit margins.

  • Obtain competitive quotations from suppliers and subcontractors, ensuring up-to-date market pricing.

  • Develop cash flow projections and financial models to support bid submissions.

• Bid Preparation & Submission:

  • Formulate comprehensive and competitive tender proposals, ensuring strict compliance with all tender requirements and submission deadlines.

  • Prepare technical submissions, detailed methodologies, work schedules, and project execution plans as part of the bid.

  • Coordinate actively with internal departments (e.g., procurement, legal, planning) and external stakeholders during the entire tender preparation process.

  • Participate in pre-bid meetings and conduct site visits to gain a clear understanding of project scope and site-specific conditions.

• Risk Assessment & Mitigation:

  • Identify and assess commercial, technical, and contractual risks associated with each tender.

  • Propose robust strategies for risk mitigation and contingency planning within the bid proposal.

• Post-Tender Activities:

  • Participate in post-tender negotiations and provide necessary clarifications.

  • Analyze reasons for successful and unsuccessful bids to refine future tendering strategies.

II. Civil Engineering (Project Execution & Management Support):

• Design Review & Optimization:

  • Review and provide expert input on civil engineering designs, ensuring strict adherence to relevant codes, standards, and best practices.

  • Propose value engineering solutions to optimize costs and improve efficiency without compromising quality or safety.

• Technical Support:

  • Provide critical technical expertise and support to project teams during the execution phase, particularly regarding quantities, specifications, and variations.

  • Assist in resolving technical queries and on-site challenges effectively.

• Quantity Surveying & Billing Support:

  • Assist with accurate quantity surveying, measurement, and verification of work completed on site.

  • Support the preparation and verification of client bills and subcontractor payments.

• Site Coordination & Supervision (as needed):

  • Occasionally visit project sites to monitor construction progress, understand challenges, and validate quantities for tendering purposes.

  • Liaise with site teams, clients, and consultants as required.

• Documentation & Reporting:

  • Maintain accurate records of all tender submissions, correspondence, and project-related documentation.

  • Prepare regular reports on tendering activities, success rates, and relevant market trends.
