The APM shall assist all team members in planning, implementing, and coordinating activities to provide for the timely and economical completion of projects with high quality, good relationships and maximum profit.

The Assistant Project Manager’s first responsibility is to keep his or her superintendent equipped and motivated to carry out his or her responsibilities.

Project schedule from inception to completion. Control and coordination is the APM’s responsibility and shall be performed in conjunction with the PM and Superintendent and subcontractors to ensure commitments made on each project are fully achievable, realistic and completed.

Relationships - Cultivate and maintain good relations with clients, Owners, architects, engineers, subcontractors, suppliers, municipal authorities and other TEEL personnel with whom the APM will interface.
