  • Support project managers and leadership with predictive analytics tools that combine  historical performance and real-time data .
  • Collaborate with Prefabrication, Estimating, and Field Operations to quantify performance gains and measure improvement initiatives.
  • 3. Data Governance and Integration

  • Establish and maintain  data standards, definitions, and governance protocols  for all project reporting.
  • Integrate construction management and financial systems into a  centralized analytics environment .
  • Work with IT to maintain secure, role-based access and ensure system reliability and data integrity.
  • Troubleshoot data connectivity and accuracy issues between NGCS, Power BI, and other platforms.
  • 4. Stakeholder Engagement and Training

  • Collaborate with department leaders to define reporting needs and translate business questions into clear analytics solutions.
  • Deliver  training and guidance  for project teams on interpreting dashboards and using analytics tools effectively.
  • Present insights and recommendations to management using concise, executive-level visualizations.
  • 5. Continuous Improvement and Innovation

  • Continuously enhance data systems by identifying automation, integration, and AI opportunities.
  • Research and implement emerging  Power BI and AI / ML capabilities  for advanced forecasting and risk analysis.
  • Standardize and document reporting processes to improve scalability across regions and clients.
  • Qualifications and Skills

  • Bachelor’s degree in  Data Analytics, Computer Science, Construction Management, Engineering , or related field (preferred).
  • 3–5 years of experience developing  Power BI dashboards ,  DAX measures , and  SQL-based data models .
  • Proficiency with  Power Query (M language) ,  SQL ,  Excel (VBA / Macros a plus) , and relational database design.
  • Familiarity with  Primavera P6 ,  Procore ,  Viewpoint / Spectrum , or similar construction / project controls systems is highly desirable.
