VDC Coordinator

Faith Technologies•Olathe, KS

About The Position

The VDC Coordinator establishes and executes model-based coordination processes for assigned projects, working closely with the Senior VDC Coordinator. The position supports projects and business groups across FTI, from coordination planning and startup through signoff, fabrication, and field handoff. Work may support EPC delivery, electrical construction, integrated delivery teams, or other FTI groups. The coordinator may establish and administer coordination processes, including project-specific BIM Execution Plans and workflows, while each engineer, designer, and trade partner retains responsibility for its own design, model content, scope, and approvals. This is a centralized, hands-on individual contributor role without direct reports. Project assignments and priorities are established by the VDC Director, with day-to-day support and workload alignment coordinated through the Senior VDC Coordinator. Design changes, scope decisions, contractual direction, and schedule commitments remain with the appropriate project leader or responsible project participant. The coordinator identifies stalled items and works with the Senior VDC Coordinator to escalate them through established channels. The position works between 7 AM and 5 PM, Monday through Friday, although work may be performed at any time on any day of the week to meet business needs. Travel is 10–20%.

Requirements

At least 3 years of BIM or VDC coordination experience in the architecture, engineering, and construction industry.
Experience supporting active construction projects is required.
Travel of 10–20%.
Ability to work between 7 AM and 5 PM, Monday through Friday, with work potentially required at any time on any day of the week to meet business needs.

Nice To Haves

Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management, Engineering, Architecture, Building Science, or a related discipline.
Relevant certifications or advanced training in BIM/VDC platforms, coordination workflows, or construction technology.

Responsibilities

Provide VDC coordination support to assigned projects and business groups from planning and startup through signoff, fabrication, and field handoff.
Develop and maintain project-specific BIM Execution Plans, coordination procedures, responsibility matrices, model exchange requirements, clash-testing standards, issue-tracking workflows, meeting cadences, signoff processes, and handoff requirements.
Set up and maintain the approved model coordination platform, folder structure, federated model, clash tests, issue categories, permissions, reporting structure, and model-publishing process.
Collect, review, combine, and maintain current design and trade models in the approved project coordination environment.
Run scheduled clash tests; organize results by system, area, priority, and responsible party; and identify constructability or installation conflicts.

Prepare for and facilitate assigned coordination meetings; develop agendas, document decisions, confirm action owners, and communicate follow-up requirements.
Administer and support general-contractor coordination workflows where FTI performs that role, including the federated model, clash matrix, issue log, meeting records, milestone tracking, trade signoffs, and project reporting.
Confirm project participants follow the approved BIM Execution Plan, coordinate system, file-naming standards, Level of Development requirements, model-exchange schedule, and publishing procedures.
Work with project teams, designers, engineers, and trade partners to resolve routing conflicts, equipment access, clearances, support requirements, penetration needs, installation sequencing, and building-system interfaces.
Monitor coordination zones, model-release dates, issue-closure targets, trade signoffs, procurement needs, fabrication dates, and field-installation requirements.
Communicate unresolved issues, missing models, late responses, design changes, scope gaps, workflow noncompliance, schedule impacts, and decisions requiring leadership involvement.
Maintain meeting notes, issue histories, model status, signoff records, workflow documentation, and supporting information.
Confirm coordinated model information and issue status are available to fabrication, layout, and field teams, and provide progress updates to the Senior VDC Coordinator and project leadership.
Perform other related duties as required and assigned.
