Prebuild Control by International Construction Data

Background

John Spencer is a 40-year veteran in the construction industry. His first survey crew chief job was on the initial construction phase of the DFW airport. He then worked on the Alaska pipeline as a survey crew chief from 1973 to 1976. John started his first construction staking business in Fairbanks, Alaska, at the age of 24 and surveyed throughout the state. For the next 20 years his business grew both in Alaska and Texas where he used the latest technology and a growing practical experience in a wide range of highway and commercial construction projects.

In 1984, John developed RoadRunner, one of the first combined road-building and dirt quantity measuring software programs available for the new PC platform. RoadRunner was a giant leap forward compared to the conventional method of staking and quantity measurement central to road building. Several state highway departments employed the software to enhance productivity of their crews.

John Spencer and International Construction Data, Inc. continue to bring the construction industry into the 21st century with cutting edge methods to assist builders, construction managers and project owners in finding cost effective ways to run their jobs smoothly, quickly and efficiently.
