Document Controller VA

A senior document controller runs the document management system for engineering and construction projects, so every drawing, specification and vendor document is the current revision, correctly numbered and traceable.

Responsibilities

  • Register, number and distribute drawings, specifications and vendor documents in Aconex, ProjectWise, SharePoint or the client's EDMS.
  • Issue and track transmittals to clients, contractors and consultants, recording receipt and review status.
  • Manage document review workflows, chasing reviewers and recording comments and approval codes.
  • Maintain the master document register and deliverables list, reporting progress and overdue items weekly.
  • Enforce the project numbering, naming and revision procedures and train the team on them.
  • Audit document control records and correct filing, metadata and superseded document errors.
  • Compile as-built, handover and archive packages at project completion.
  • Control access permissions so contractors and clients see only what they are entitled to.
  • Support audits and claims with document trails that show who received what and when.
  • Prepare document control procedures and templates for new projects.
