Own the cost, compliance, speed and capacity of the subcontracted labor base that executes CSA service, MOD and upgrade work. This role converts an unmanaged 1,300+ vendor tail into a tiered, contracted, competitively bid bench — and is measured on two outcomes: dollars out of subcontract cost, and days out of backlog-to-revenue. 

 

Bench Capacity and Sourcing 

  • Build and maintain a qualified subcontractor bench sized to forecast demand by trade and by region. 

  • Maintain 2–3 qualified subs per critical trade per region; eliminate single-source trades. 

  • Own the regional subcontractor AVL register. 

 

Bidding and Cost Control  

  • Run competitive bid events on the Building Connected platform; move subcon spend under active bid from 10% to over 33%. 

  • Build and maintain trade rate cards; eliminate project-level ad-hoc pricing. 

  • Own the regional productivity number and feed the bottoms-up productivity pipeline. 

 

Onboarding, Contracting and Compliance  

  • Onboard subcontractors against standard master subcontract agreements with insurance, EMR and risk vetting complete before mobilization. 

  • Drive onboarding cycle time from 90–120 days to under 14 days. 

  • 100% AVL and contract compliance; no work performed off-contract. 

 

Performance, Tiering and Safety 

  • Deploy and maintain Gold/Silver/Bronze tiering across the assigned base; route volume to Gold. 

  • Run quarterly scorecards on schedule adherence, rework, safety incidents and change-order rate. 

  • Own subcontractor safety qualification and incident follow-through with EH&S. 

 

Backlog Conversion and Cross-Functional Execution 

  • Participate in the MAU / Subcon war room cadence (twice weekly); own the subcontractor escalation path direct to subs. 

  • Partner with Operations, PMO, Finance and Legal to pull backlog revenue conversion from 6–9 months to under 3 months.
