• Assisting in facilitating effective communication between the demolition contractor, Diavik project teams, and other on-site contractors, particularly regarding on-site logistics and interfaces.
• Verifying all on-site work against reported progress for accurate payment verification purposes.
• Identifying and reporting any deviations from project drawings, specifications, or contractual requirements observed in the field.
