For six years have been studying all the life-cycles of development for all types of software. Prior to applying for this position I was the head software developer with the Microsoft Development team that developed Windows 20. Responsibilities include managing each process of the software development stages and ensuring each member of the team performed at their highest level. Other responsibilities include keeping close contact with other departments to make sure that each of their needs was met. My experience gained in these areas will be a great asset when managing other development teams.
If the original design brief (Clients Requirements) are not detailed enough this can lead to issues when trying to evaluate the contractor’s tender submissions on a like for like basis as they may interpret the client’s requirements differently, this can lead to lengthy post tender negotiations and slow down contract award.

The underbidding of contracts to “outbid” other competing contractors is an open secret amongst contractors—at least to the knowledge of the experienced and high ranking contracting firms. This practice usually stems from the detection of flaws in construction designs, drawings, outlines and cost estimates. Contractors wielding intelligence about the make-up of such poorly structured projects move to profit on these flaws by first underbidding on the contracts to be awarded it then decide to include additional costs to the project via change orders later on in the project. This practice may also be due to the socially regarded norm on cost-effectiveness. Outsourcing corporations and governments often tend to confuse cost-effectiveness for pragmatism and thus may usually be inclined to award contracts to the lowest bidding contractor. Contractors then move to exploit this chance by requesting change orders which in most cases may not be necessary thus bulking on their profits.
In particular, space allocation is a potential risk of a conflict. The general contractor, hired by the customer has been in business for five years and has built over 10 custom homes. The general contractor has undergone several labor changes on previous contracts to include several sub-contractor changes and three different design architects. The general contractor manages his projects to balance time, cost, scope and quality to ensure all stakeholders’ expectations are met and acceptance of the customer is obtained. Because of the general contractors’ due diligence, labor changes were necessary to obtain the desired results. However, the general contractor continues to undergo business growth and still fine-tuning the desired labor force.
