• Coordinate with suppliers to ensure timely delivery of materials and equipment, while maintaining an up-to-date schedule that aligns with project timelines.
• Continuously monitor work progress and ensure alignment with project timelines and deliverables, including documentation. Report updates to the project manager, identifying potential delays or supply chain issues.
• Ensure subcontract systems, materials, and documentation are delivered to the correct locations and on time, handling any issues related to inventory or supplier delays.
• Serve as a point of contact between internal supply chain, project teams (PMO), suppliers, and subcontractors, ensuring alignment on delivery schedules and requirements.
• Address any issues with suppliers or deliveries, such as late shipments, damaged goods, or order discrepancies, and implement solutions to keep the supply chain and project on track.
• Maintain accurate records of all communications, orders, and deliveries. Provide regular status updates to the supply chain and project managers regarding POs, supplier updates, and potential subcontract or project delays.
• Ensure all supplier agreements, deliveries, and procurement activities comply with company policies and industry regulations.
