• No conflicts of interest (e.g., family members or financial interest with the construction contractor).
• Ability to maintain strict confidentiality of procurement-sensitive information (including Government cost estimates).
• Commitment to ethical behavior per FAR Part 3; must always identify as a “Contractor” (non-Government employee) and report solely to the NPS/DSC.
• Full administrative and technical support from ASR’s home-office team.

Responsibilities

• Observe and document daily construction progress, workmanship, quality, and conformance with contract documents, plans, specifications, building codes, and safety standards.
• Prepare and upload a detailed Daily Report for every day of on-site construction activity, including photographs with legends, dimension notes, and descriptions.

• Review, verify, and manage all administrative documentation (submittals, RFIs, certified payrolls, schedules, payment requests, quality control reports, O&M manuals, etc.) using ASR’s Construction Management software.
• Monitor contractor compliance with the Accident Prevention Plan (APP) and all applicable safety requirements; document safety issues immediately.
• Perform and document preparatory, initial, and follow-up (3-phase) inspections for designated work items.
• Assist with drafting scoping documents for contract modifications, proposal reviews, and negotiation documentation (notes submitted within 1 business day).
• Strictly follow communication protocols: All concerns, observations, or issues must be reported only to the NPS DSC / Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR). The CMR must never provide opinions or direction directly to the Park, Region, or Construction Contractor.
