RANDALL’s
Titusville Electrical Division
is seeking
a top-tier, career-driven
Electrical Design
Analyst
to support the successful estimating, planning, and delivery of
large-scale commercial electrical construction projects along the
Space
Coast of Florida
from our office in
Titusville.
Position
Summary:
The
Design Analysis Specialist is responsible for reviewing construction drawings,
specifications, design narratives, scopes of work, subcontractor proposals, and
quantity takeoffs to identify design conflicts, missing information, quantity
discrepancies, constructability concerns, and potential financial exposure
before and during construction.
This
position serves as the technical link between estimating, project management,
field operations, BIM/VDC, engineering, general contractors, design
professionals, vendors, and subcontractors. The primary objective is to verify
that the written scope, design documents, quantities, labor assumptions,
material requirements, and installation methods align before Randall Electrical
commits to pricing or construction.
The role
is intended to reduce scope gaps, prevent unplanned costs, improve change-order
documentation, and provide management with clear technical and financial
analysis.
Essential Functions:
Drawing and Specification Review
-
Review electrical, civil,
structural, architectural, mechanical, plumbing, fire-protection, and site
drawings affecting Randall’s scope.
-
Compare drawings against
specifications, addenda, narratives, bid forms, schedules, and
subcontractor proposals.
-
Identify conflicts between plan
views, details, one-line diagrams, schedules, sections, and written
requirements.
-
Confirm that
issued-for-construction documents contain sufficient information to price
and construct the work.
-
Track revisions between drawing
sets and identify resulting scope, quantity, labor, and cost impacts.
-
Maintain a design-analysis log
showing open questions, responsible parties, required responses, and
potential cost exposure.
Quantity and Takeoff Validation
-
Independently verify major
quantities, including:
-
Conduit
and duct-bank footage.
-
Trench
footage, width, depth, and excavation volume.
-
Concrete
encasement and flowable-fill quantities.
-
Conductors
and cable lengths.
-
Equipment
counts.
-
Grounding
quantities.
-
Manholes,
pull boxes, hand-holes, supports, racks, and accessories.
-
Confirm that material
quantities align with the described installation configuration.
-
Identify mathematical
inconsistencies, duplicated quantities, missing quantities, and
unsupported allowances.
-
Develop calculation sheets
showing the basis for each conclusion.
Constructability Analysis
-
Evaluate whether the proposed
installation can be constructed as shown.
-
Review access, sequencing,
equipment needs, excavation limits, crane and lift requirements, material
handling, and trade coordination.
-
Identify conflicts involving
elevations, clearances, routing, foundations, underground utilities,
structural steel, mechanical systems, and architectural features.
-
Evaluate whether proposed
production rates are reasonable based on site conditions and installation
requirements.
-
Recommend alternative
installation methods, prefabrication opportunities, and value-engineering
options.
-
Coordinate with field
leadership to validate labor and production assumptions.
Scope and Proposal Review
-
Review vendor and subcontractor
proposals before award.
-
Confirm that proposal
quantities, exclusions, clarifications, and assumptions agree with
Randall’s contract requirements.
-
Identify gaps between Randall’s
scope and subcontracted scope.
-
Prepare scope-comparison sheets
and bid-leveling documents.
-
Recommend clarifications and
exclusions needed to protect Randall.
-
Verify responsibility for
furnishing, installing, testing, surveying, inspecting, repairing,
relocating, hauling, disposal, and restoration.
-
Flag language that transfers
unlimited or poorly defined risk to Randall.
RFI and Design-Clarification Support
-
Prepare draft Requests for
Information for unresolved design conditions.
-
Include drawing references,
specification references, calculations, photographs, sketches, and
recommended solutions.
-
Maintain a log of RFIs
affecting cost, schedule, procurement, or field production.
-
Review design-team responses to
determine whether they constitute clarification, revision, or compensated scope change.
-
Notify project management when
an RFI response changes the contractual scope.
Change Management and Cost Support
-
Prepare technical backup for
potential change orders and requests for equitable adjustment.
-
Identify design changes,
quantity growth, differing site conditions, access restrictions,
out-of-sequence work, and directed acceleration.
-
Compare original bid
assumptions against revised requirements.
-
Assist estimators and project
managers with labor, material, equipment, and schedule-impact
calculations.
-
Maintain contemporaneous
records supporting entitlement and cost recovery.
-
Help distinguish between
base-contract work, coordination work, rework, and additional work.
Engineering and BIM/VDC Coordination
-
Coordinate design questions
with Randall’s BIM/VDC, estimating, engineering, and field teams.
-
Review coordinated models and
shop drawings for compliance with contract documents.
-
Confirm that modeled routes and
elevations align with field conditions and project requirements.
-
Identify when delegated design,
signed calculations, or professional engineering services are required.
-
Do not perform work requiring a
professional engineering license unless properly licensed and authorized.
-
Clearly separate internal
constructability analysis from licensed engineering design.
