You've Never Been Satisfied with "Good Enough."
You didn't get into this to manage one piece of a project. You got into it to change how the world gets built.
At Accenture Construct, that's the job. You'll help deliver the data centers, power grids, rail networks, factories and public infrastructure that keep communities moving — smarter, safer and more sustainably.
You'll work alongside people who think big and act bold: project managers, engineers, technologists and strategists who pair real-world delivery with AI. And you won't be handed a slice of it. We take on whole programs, from early strategy through construction and handover, and we stand behind how they land.
Because “good enough” builds the past. You're here to build what's next.

THE WORK:
- You’ll develop a standardized cost reporting framework for reviewing and validating Colocation Developers’ base building construction costs, preparing estimate evaluation reports based on ROM, Schematic, or Construction pricing.
- You’ll review and validate project scope against predefined demarcation matrices, highlighting deviations, cost impacts, and assumptions or exclusions from developers, AEs, GCs, and Clients.
- You’ll develop reports aligned with Clients’ Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) categories and provide summaries of Site & Shell / Increment 0 / Increment 1-N construction phasing.
- You’ll analyze developer data center construction costs against market intelligence and parametric benchmarks, factoring in Value Engineering cost options for Client consideration.
- You’ll review developer security costs against Client benchmarks and capture all supporting assumptions and exclusions.
- You’ll track design changes between estimate revisions, reporting on cost and schedule impacts.
- You’ll coordinate with in-house commodity teams to leverage current market intelligence for accurate cost evaluations.
- You’ll liaise with Client stakeholders and partner teams, including Energy Location Services (ELS), Central Estimating, and others to align on estimating and program costs.
