Roles

Field Engineer

a construction engineer who works on the jobsite, tracking field conditions, materials and extra work and turning them into project records

Your job, minus the screen work

You check layout, quantities and quality, and you receive what shows up at the gate. Every delivery and every extra-work event also has to land in the ERP, the project system and the payables, usually after hours.

Where your week goes

  1. Posting delivery receipts on Friday, if the week allows
  2. Answering AP when invoices cannot match missing receipts
  3. Fighting a short shipment signed for clean
  4. Pricing extra work rows with no source
  5. Catching unapproved materials after they are installed

What an agent takes over

  1. Receipt posting

    A gate photo becomes a receipt against the right PO line the same day.

  2. Damage and shortage reports

    Supplier notices go out the same day with photos and track until credit arrives.

  3. Extra work pricing

    Each event gets a source, a price from your rate tables and a change event.

  4. Submittal check

    Deliveries are matched to approved submittals at the gate.

What stays with you

  • Counting and inspecting the load, and noting exceptions before signing

  • Layout and measurement

  • Judging whether damage matters

  • Deciding with the PM whether an event is extra work
