Experience Overview:
My construction experience includes commercial, retail, industrial, and institutional building as well as residential multi-family from 1 to 10 stories and single-family construction. During the last 18 years I’ve gained knowledge from groundwork up to finish trim and punch-out starting out as a Carpenter, Foreman, then Superintendent; later as Project Manager, Estimator and Business Owner. I have been in the construction industry all my life as my family has been in the Earthwork business since the late 1960's. With this experience I have developed my skills to work in a variety of sectors as referenced in the enclosed project list.
Estimating and Scheduling are strengths that I continue to develop, as these are two areas that can make or break a company. I have done quite a lot of conceptual, hard-bid and construction management estimating, budgeting and planning. I am proficient with Timberline estimating software, having completed both intermediate and advanced Timberline class training. I have schooled both at Auburn University and Jacksonville State University in Building Science, Business and Accounting.
Project Management makes up a large part of what I have done all my adult life. Over the years I have worked closely with several Fast-Track general contractors which taught me much about conformity and scheduling. After several years working for a mid-size company in South Florida, I also grew a new appreciation for systematic approaches to construction management and QC excellence. I have used Primavera management and scheduling software as well as a variety of other software for various applications.
My fundamental approach to estimating and project management is simply to stick to the basic ideals of Planning and Execution. In the field or in the office, one does not work well without the other. I have worked hard to ensure there is no area of building in which I lack experience and/or knowledge; and in any areas that I feel I am weak I continue to educate myself. Most trades items I have done personally, from compaction testing to setting the required speed and pressure of a door closer. This experience allows me to deal with subs and vendors on a direct knowledge basis. This eliminates many problems stemming from unfamiliarity with the building process and its components.
Future Goal
To continue producing profitable and rewarding projects for a company while continuing to
learn and expand my own skills in this challenging market we are now in. I would like to obtain a position with a solid growth company that allows the potential for future advancement. I feel my experience in the industry will bring a lot to the table as far as being a productive asset for the long-term growth of a company. Please feel free to call me at your leisure to schedule a meeting or for more information about me or the projects I have been involved in. References available upon request.
Sincerely,
Billy Bonds
