Responsibilities and Involvement
I came on this project as a 1099 freelance project manger for DF3 Capital a small residential developer. I joined the project post acquisition and groundbreaking. My involvement in the schedule started at steel erection. The project was unique due to the developer and general contractor becoming partners in the asset.
