• Project Kick-off and Scheduling: Once a project is awarded, the general superintendent is responsible for creating a detailed project schedule. This involves coordinating with the client, the sales team, and suppliers to lock in dates for concrete/material delivery, prep work, and finishing.
• Material and Equipment Management: They must ensure that all necessary materials (rebar, forms, curing compounds, etc.) and equipment (skid steers, trowel machines, pumps) are ordered, delivered, and ready on-site when needed. This includes negotiating with suppliers, such as White Cap, regarding pricing and delivery times. All quotes and pricing should be saved to the project folder to ensure accuracy.

• On-Site Supervision: This person acts as the main point of contact for the foremen and is a regular presence on assigned job sites to monitor progress, ensure quality control, and address any unexpected issues.
• Problem-Solving: When challenges arise—like a sudden rainstorm, equipment failure, or a last-minute change order from the client, the superintendent is the primary person responsible for finding a solution and minimizing the impact on the schedule and budget.
• Quality Control: They are ultimately responsible for ensuring that all concrete is placed and finished with the required specifications (e.g., PAG specs for public work, specific PSI for commercial slabs) and that the final product meets or exceeds client expectations.
• Daily Reporting: They review daily reports from the foremen, which track crew hours, materials used, and work completed. This data is essential for accurate invoicing and cost tracking
• Communicates daily with other superintendents to assess manpower, equipment, and all other needs for master schedule allocation.
• Team Leadership and Training: They are responsible for the professional development of the field staff, including foremen and crew leads. This could involve leading regular training sessions on new techniques, equipment, or safety protocols.
