Project Manager – Technology & Construction

Deployments

Summary of Role

Our dynamic client is seeking an experienced Project Manager to lead complex technology

deployments within large-scale commercial and public facilities. This role requires a

unique combination of project management, construction/site coordination, technology

implementation, and client leadership.

The Project Manager owns projects from post-sale handoff through planning, site

readiness, installation, configuration, testing, training, go-live, and final closeout. Deployments often involve the installation and integration of IoT sensors, gateways, digital signage, networking/connectivity, mobile applications, and cloud-

based software within active facilities. Projects may require coordination with airport

authorities, facility teams, general contractors, electrical contractors, low-voltage

contractors, IT/networking teams, janitorial partners, technology vendors, and other

stakeholders.

The Project Manager is ultimately accountable for ensuring projects are delivered on

time, within scope, within budget, technically ready, and with a high level of client

satisfaction.

Key Responsibilities

Project Ownership & Delivery

 Own assigned projects from internal sales handoff through final client acceptance

and project closeout.

 Develop and maintain comprehensive project plans including scope, schedule,

milestones, responsibilities, dependencies, risks, budget, installation activities,

training, go-live, and closeout.

 Establish clear project milestones and proactively manage adherence to project

schedules.

 Maintain accurate project documentation, status reports, action items, decision

logs, and project records.

 Identify risks, delays, scope gaps, and potential roadblocks early and develop

corrective action plans before they impact delivery.

 Manage multiple concurrent projects across different customers, locations, and

stages of implementation.

 Drive projects forward independently rather than waiting for clients, vendors, or

internal departments to determine next steps.

 Ensure all stakeholders understand upcoming deadlines, dependencies,

responsibilities, and required deliverables.

Construction; Site Coordination

 Coordinate technology installations within active construction and operational

environments.

 Review project plans, floor plans, site drawings, installation layouts, equipment

locations, and other project documentation as applicable.

 Participate in site walks and pre-installation meetings to validate field conditions

and installation requirements.

 Coordinate with general contractors, electrical contractors, low-voltage

contractors, facility teams, IT teams, and other trades to ensure installation

requirements are incorporated into the overall project schedule.

 Understand construction sequencing and identify dependencies that may affect

technology installation or commissioning.

 Coordinate site access, badging, security requirements, escorts, work hours,

loading/access requirements, staging areas, and other site logistics.

 Confirm site readiness prior to mobilization, including power, network

connectivity, mounting locations, infrastructure, and required client-provided

resources.

 Coordinate installation schedules and ensure field teams have the appropriate

equipment, documentation, access, and information before arriving onsite.

 Monitor field installation progress and quickly escalate or resolve issues affecting

schedule, quality, safety, or scope.

 Manage punch-list items through completion and ensure outstanding installation

issues are formally tracked and closed.

Technology Implementation

 Manage technology deployments involving IoT devices, sensors, gateways,

digital signage, mobile applications, networking/connectivity, APIs/integrations,

and cloud-based software.

 Coordinate closely with Technology, Implementation, Configuration,

Operations, Client Success, Purchasing, and Support teams.

 Understand project technical requirements well enough to translate between

clients, contractors, field technicians, and technical teams.

 Coordinate network and connectivity requirements with customer IT departments,

including Wi-Fi, cellular, ethernet, firewall, security, and related infrastructure

requirements when applicable.

 Track equipment procurement, shipping, inventory, installation, activation, and

commissioning.

 Ensure hardware is properly installed, communicating, configured, tested, and

reflected accurately within the platform.

 Coordinate system configuration, user setup, data requirements, integrations,

dashboards, workflows, and other technical dependencies required for go-live.

 Manage testing and commissioning activities and ensure identified technical

issues are assigned, tracked, escalated, and resolved.

 Ensure projects transition cleanly from implementation into ongoing Client

Success and Technical Support.

Client & Stakeholder Management

 Serve as the primary client contact for assigned projects.

 Establish project governance, communication cadence, meeting schedules,

escalation paths, and stakeholder responsibilities at project kickoff.

 Lead client kickoff meetings, project reviews, construction/installation

coordination meetings, status calls, and closeout meetings.

 Communicate project status clearly, including accomplishments, upcoming

milestones, risks, decisions required, delays, and responsible parties.

 Build strong relationships with client executives, facility management, operations

teams, IT departments, contractors, and frontline stakeholders.

 Manage client expectations professionally while protecting project scope,

schedule, budget, and contractual requirements.

 Recognize potential changes in scope and ensure additional work is properly

documented, communicated, and approved before execution.

 Identify opportunities for future phases, expanded scope, or additional TRAX

solutions and communicate opportunities internally.

Cross-Functional Leadership

 Own the coordination between departments and ensure required information

moves between teams at the appropriate stage of the project.

 Establish clear owners and deadlines for project tasks and hold internal and

external stakeholders accountable for commitments.

 Escalate issues appropriately while bringing recommended solutions—not simply

reporting problems.

 Conduct internal handoff meetings before implementation and formal operational

handoffs following go-live.

 Ensure Sales commitments, contracts, statements of work, technical

requirements, and client expectations are understood by the delivery team.

Budget, Scope & Change Management

 Manage project scope, schedule, budget, resources, and technical performance.

 Monitor project costs and identify potential budget overruns before they occur.

 Review contracts, proposals, statements of work, and project requirements to

ensure delivery aligns with what was sold.

 Identify out-of-scope requests and coordinate change orders or scope

modifications as appropriate.

 Maintain documentation of client decisions and approvals that affect project

scope, cost, or schedule.

Quality, Go-Live & Closeout

 Develop and manage go-live readiness plans for assigned projects.

 Confirm hardware, software, configuration, integrations, training, documentation,

and support requirements are complete prior to launch.

 Coordinate user and operational training with appropriate TRAX teams.

 Conduct project closeout and ensure outstanding punch-list items are resolved.

 Ensure all final project documentation is organized and transferred to Client

Success and Technical Support.

 Conduct post-project reviews to identify lessons learned, process improvements,

and recurring risks.

 Track project performance against defined success criteria and delivery

expectations.
