About The Position

This is one field-based, dual-hatted position combining the duties of Project Superintendent and Quality Control Manager for TCS’s execution of the CBP Critical Repairs, Multiple Land Ports of Entry contract. It is a single hire, not two separate positions. The Superintendent / QC Manager reports to the Project Manager and is responsible for field readiness, sequencing, and coordination of TCS direct-hire craft resources and subcontractor site leads/foremen at each of 21 dispersed site work packages across Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, New Mexico, Texas, Washington, and Vermont, together with independent verification of workmanship, hold points, testing, deficiency closure, and turnover for both TCS self-performed and subcontracted work. This is a field-oriented role requiring near-continuous travel between active sites rather than a primarily office-based assignment.

Responsibilities

Coordinating field readiness, sequencing, and daily site logistics at the active work site, including access, staging, and interface with active CBP Land Port of Entry operations.
Providing field direction to assigned TCS direct-hire craft resources and coordinating subcontractor site leads/foremen; TCS direct-work resources and subcontractors retain their own crew supervision and production self-checks, while this position retains work-release, integration, and turnover authority.
Confirming site access, qualified personnel, approved materials/equipment, and hazard controls are in place before any task is released to mobilization; holding work that is not ready.
Providing field input to the Project Manager’s integrated schedule and rolling six-week look-ahead, including travel, coverage, and site-priority conflicts.
Coordinating site protection and activity-specific hazard controls (traffic/maintenance of traffic, excavation, lifting, fire-protection impairment, physical access control system cutover, and hazardous-material/demolition controls) before releasing work.
Traveling extensively and near-continuously among active sites across the assigned Areas of Responsibility; this position is TCS’s single field-based presence responsible for physical site coverage.
Contributing to the development of proposal technical approaches and cost estimations related to Quality Program implementation.
Crafting comprehensive Quality Control Project Plans encompassing Definable Features of Work, inspection criteria, and testing strategies, along with the creation of pertinent field documentation.
Upholding compliance with Submittal regulations, including maintaining meticulous logs, overseeing review/approval processes, and assessing technical submittmits as required based on specialized knowledge.
Assisting the project team in generating Requests for Information (RFIs) as needed.
Enforcing a 3-phase (Preparatory, Initial, and Follow-up) Quality Control process in the field, plus a completion/turnover verification stage, before work is released for Government acceptance.
Independently verifying workmanship, hold points, tests, and inspection evidence for both TCS self-performed and subcontracted work; QC verification is separate from performer self-checks.
Documenting field quality discrepancies and managing them through a Deficiency Log until resolution.
Establishing and guiding a team of subject matter experts to implement tailored QC programs effectively.
Collaborating with the field team to comprehend the timing and rationale behind quality inspection and testing "hold points," and strategizing for their successful execution.
Compiling targeted Daily Quality Control Reports, minutes of Preparatory and Initial Phase meetings, and deficiency reports, emphasizing inspected and tested work features and their outcomes rather than field productivity.
Providing updates on the status of quality program implementation and field progress directly to the Project Manager, with copies to the Program Quality Control Manager as applicable.
Drawing upon experience and expertise to assist the project team in resolving outstanding quality issues, offering troubleshooting and problem-solving support as necessary across all projects.
