• Coordination of lighting, environmental controls, and integration of interactive/digital interpretive elements.
• Ongoing project management, weekly coordination meetings, risk‑management plan, and delivery of as‑built drawings and maintenance manuals.
• Mandatory compliance with state procurement rules, insurance requirements, and a 100‑day price hold.
