Coordinate with the GC, electrical contractor, and low-voltage contractor to sequence IT work with the overall construction schedule.

Coordinate carrier/ISP service entrance, demarc location, and circuit delivery dates.

Design, Documentation & Change Management

Review IT/low-voltage drawings, submittals, RFIs, and shop drawings; provide responses or route to engineers.
Track and evaluate change orders affecting IT scope, cost, or schedule.
Maintain the IT project schedule, RAID log (risks, actions, issues, decisions), and budget tracking.
Ensure accurate labeling and as-built documentation are delivered at closeout.

Testing, Acceptance & Handoff

Review cable certification and fiber test results (e.g., Fluke reports); require remediation of failures.
Lead punch-list walkthroughs for IT spaces and cabling.
Coordinate network equipment installation and turn-up with internal IT and vendors.
Drive final acceptance, warranty documentation, and handoff to IT operations.

Stakeholder Communication

Provide weekly status reports to IT leadership and project stakeholders.
Escalate risks and issues early with clear options and recommendations.

Required Qualifications

7+ years of IT project management, with at least 3 years managing IT infrastructure for new construction, build-outs, or major renovations.
Hands-on knowledge of structured cabling, fiber, low-voltage systems, and data center/telecom room design.

Ability to read and interpret architectural, electrical, and low-voltage/technology drawings.
Experience working directly with General Contractors, electrical contractors, and low-voltage subcontractors.
