* As a Purchasing Agent with Polygon Northwest I ultimately procure all trades for the vertical construction of single-family and multi-family residential projects as well as some involvement with the horizontal development of residential plats. A day-to-day scenario in the office includes contract negotiations * contract execution * contract management (i.e. minimizing change orders) * product research * minor estimating * problem solving * project buy-outs * value engineering * insurance compliance * sustaining manufacturer and vendor relations * maximizing builder incentives * and miscellaneous administrative tasks. All in all, it is a lot of small tasks necessary to ensure I am procuring at the best possible value with an acceptable amount of risk.
