POSITION SUMMARY

Barton Malow is seeking a highly organized and detail-driven MEP Logistics Manager to support the construction of a mission-critical data center near Philadelphia, PA. This role is central to ensuring the seamless flow of materials, equipment, information, and field readiness across all mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) activities. The ideal candidate will bring deep experience in logistics planning, delivery coordination, site material management, and operational support within complex, fast-paced construction environments—preferably mission-critical or data center projects.

• Coordinate all MEP deliveries—including sequencing, offloading needs, staging, and material flow—to maintain uninterrupted field operations.
• Manage site logistics for MEP activities, including laydown areas, material storage, equipment routing, and site access planning.
• Schedule and facilitate training sessions for OFCI systems, equipment vendors, and MEP trades to support commissioning and turnover readiness.
• Maintain submittal updates for OFCI equipment and O&M manuals, ensuring accurate, timely documentation flow between vendors, design teams, and field staff.
• Drive issue resolution by tracking logistics constraints, working with subcontractors and vendors, and escalating risks as needed.
• Coordinate scheduling of service technicians with commissioning (Cx) teams and MEP leads to support startup, testing, and functional performance activities.
• Maintain and manage warranty logs for MEP systems and OFCI equipment, supporting closeout and post-turnover requirements.
• Collaborate with internal teams, subcontractors, and client representatives to ensure alignment on logistics requirements, constraints, and schedule priorities.
• Support MEP-focused planning sessions, pull planning, and schedule updates by providing real-time logistics and procurement status.
• Ensure all logistics activities comply with safety standards, quality expectations, and site protocols.

REQUIRED KNOWLEDGE, EDUCATION, EXPERIENCE, SKILLS, AND ABILITIES:

• Bachelor’s degree in construction management, logistics, engineering, or related field (or equivalent experience).
• Minimum 5–8 years of experience in construction logistics, preferably supporting MEP or mission-critical projects.
• Experience with data center or other technically complex construction environments strongly preferred.
• Strong understanding of MEP systems, equipment procurement processes, long-lead items, and vendor coordination.
• Proficiency with construction management software such as Microsoft Office, BIM360, Bluebeam, and scheduling tools.
• Excellent communication, coordination, and problem-solving skills with the ability to work across multidisciplinary teams.
• OSHA 30 certification preferred.
• Familiarity with QA/QC processes, system turnover documentation, commissioning workflows, and warranty tracking.
