Ensuring proper documentation and recording of defects, often using a defect management system.

Coordinating with the site team, subcontractors, and HDB officers to schedule and track rectification works.

Preparing before and after photos of completed works for progress claims.

Public Relations & Communication: CROs plan and coordinate public relations programs for the project, which involves preparing and distributing notices, circulars, letters, and flyers to keep residents informed about work schedules, progress, and potential disruptions. They also attend dialogue sessions with Resident Committees and Town Councils.

Administrative Support: They provide essential administrative support to the project management team, including filing, managing correspondence, preparing reports (weekly/monthly), and other ad-hoc clerical duties.
