Summary:

The Superintendent is the company’s representative on MDC sites. A Superintendent is assigned the responsibility and authority for daily coordination and direction of all project activities, so that the work is done safely, on schedule, within budget, and in compliance with the company’s quality standards and contract documents. To accomplish this, he or she must have a plan and vision on how to construct the project and to ensure that all daily and weekly construction activities are aligned and set up accordingly.

The Superintendent and Project Manager work hand in hand as one team to compliment and supplement one another, so that the sum of their efforts is greater than their individual efforts. The Project Manager will generally concentrate on long-range project planning and procurement, which should enable the Superintendent to concentrate on the daily and short-range execution of activities.
