On smaller projects, the contractor might do all of the work himself. Or most of it, hiring out the rest and overseeing it. Large projects include engineers of all "flavors" who are supplied by the general contractor and also the subcontractors in the various specialty areas. But someone has to have the point and make the final decisions regarding the work and its quality, and the general or prime contractor has that task.
