  • Coordination: Lead regular design/model reviews; run Navisworks clash detection and coordination sessions; report, track, and close issues before they reach site
  • Ensure models are compatible and coordinated through sound knowledge of IFC workflows and interoperability between platforms
  • Information requirements: Translate EIR/AIR into deliverable model/data outputs; manage model audits, validation, and data drops
  • Training & adoption: Plan and deliver short, role-based training; coach project teams; track adoption and remove blockers
  • Site enablement: Ensure field teams have usable drawings, views, and model access via Dalux Box and Dalux Field
  • Programme & cost support: Feed coordination outputs into look-ahead planning; support 4D/5D where beneficial
  • Quality & handover: Define as-built and asset data requirements (e.g., COBie); ensure clean, verified O&M and handover packs
  • Supplier management: Align designers and subcontractors to Spencer standards; review deliverables and performance
  • Tooling & pilots: Evaluate and implement digital tools (e.g., Navisworks, Dalux); run pilots and scale proven workflows
  • Reporting: Maintain KPIs/dashboards on clashes closed, RFI trends, model/data quality, and training completion
