PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

American Asphalt & Grading Co., Las Vegas, NV

01/2007 -10/2008

General Contractor- Construction

Contract Administrator (Commercial/Concrete)

Responsible for maintenance of all operations contracts and subcontracts;

analyzed significant/unique contract requirements, special revisions, terms

and conditions to ensure compliance with appropriate laws, regulations,

company policies and business unit procedures; monitored change

orders-reviews, processes and tracked all contractual documents; job cost

tracking, report maintenance, and billing/invoice processing; monitored credit

lines, collections, finance charges and account balances. Responsible for

client billings, liens, releases, and forecasting of cash flow; advised

management of contractual rights and obligations and provided interpretation

of terms and conditions.

Saved the Concrete Division $60K by producing job cost estimating and other

project manager results when the division lacked a Project Manager.

Protected our lien rights on projects that were not handled by coworkers and

caused the accounts to be over 120 days of being unpaid. Made accounts current

within 45 days except for those accounts that were already liened or in

foreclosure process.

Collected over 1 million of over 120 days aged accounts in a four month

period. These accounts were overdue to lack of account management and

reconciliation of other Contract Administrators and I was given these accounts

due to my account reconciliation skills.

02/2005 - 01/2007

General Contractor - Construction

Contract Administration Assistant

Logged and distributed contract documents to departments managers for contract

review and executing; processed and ordered jobs specific insurance (GL, WC,

Auto, Additional Insured), bid bonds, and payment and performance bonds;

prepared cash flow and 60 plus reports for upper management and investor

review; processed external contracts for approval and execution.

Improved the contract review process with implementing a procedure that made

all reviewers and handlers accountable for the contract once it was received

at our offices. This saved the company time and effort as contracts were

previously being misplaced.

Improved the insurance ordering procedure and the result was that we did not

miss items to be insured that we were contractually obligated to insurance.

Simplified the bid bond and payment & performance ordering process so that I

could contact the insurance/bond carrier directly to get our bonds in a timely

manner.

T & R Painting and Drywall, North Las Vegas, NV

06/2004 - 01/2005

Subcontractor - Painting, Drywall, and Insulation

Cost Control Administrator

Processed purchase orders and informed field superintendents of lot changes;

verified contract and purchase order

amounts per lot and phase; collected on extra work tickets from the developer

per customer option changes;

processed insulation, drywall, and paint options for housing developments.

Processed lot options each day than waiting for a pile to accumulate as they

had done in the past.

Made sure that the field superintendents collected on all extra work tickets.

This was done by making a running list each day and collecting this

information from the superintendents on a daily basis so I could contact the

customer the following morning to collect the appropriate paperwork, such as

work authorization forms.

Assistant Project Engineer

Prepared weekly payroll reports for 50 plus employees; prepared job cost

adjustments and maintained paper job folders;

assisted in managing projects ranging from 1 million to 5.6 million; assisted

in preparing as-builts and close-out documents.

Implemented a more accurate system of tracking as-builts and close-out

documents for all projects. This change helped save employee time if they had

to refer to as-builts or close-out documents in the future per a customer's

request.

Analyzed costs on projects and determine and research to see if items were

miscoded and needed to be coded to other job accounts to show the accurate

costs per each project by phase code and cost type.

I was able to provide copies to corporate if they were lost in transit to our

corporate office. This saved time for the employee so they did not have to

complete a new form.

Processed worker's compensation forms so that our corporate office did not

have to have a local representative available in the Las Vegas area, which

saved the company the cost of hiring a representative for the Las Vegas

market.
