Construction Manager

This job posting is for a developing federal contract opportunity. Hiring for this position is dependent upon ISI being awarded this contract following a successful proposal.

ISI is seeking for a full-time onsite Construction Manager to provide Owner’s Representation services for a potential future opportunity supporting the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) at the Malcom Randall VA Medical Center in Gainesville, Florida, for the EHRM Infrastructure Upgrades and Data Center Construction project.

The project is expected to include construction of a new mission-critical data center; construction, renovation, and upgrades to nearly 60 telecommunications rooms; campus-wide Cat 6a cabling and redundant fiber-optic backbone improvements; underground telecommunications duct banks; and supporting electrical, HVAC, emergency power, fire protection, physical security, and other building-system work.
