Dave Lancour Bio

Dave Lancour – Bridging the Gap Between Technology and Construction With over two decades of hands-on experience in residential and commercial construction, and a formal education in Computer Science and Cybersecurity Analysis, I bring a rare and powerful blend of field-tested knowledge and tech-savvy insight to every project I manage. My journey began in the trades — swinging hammers, setting cabinets, and managing remodels from the ground up. That real-world experience gave me a deep respect for craftsmanship, communication, and what it takes to move a job from concept to completion. But I didn’t stop there. Driven by a desire to do more than just build — to build better — I pursued a degree in computer science with a focus on secure systems and process optimization. Today, as a construction project manager, I specialize in integrating technology into every layer of the jobsite: from digital plan reviews and field documentation workflows, to AI-powered schedule forecasting, drone-based progress tracking, and real-time collaboration platforms. I don’t just use tools like Procore, Bluebeam, and Excel automation — I customize and optimize them to suit each team’s unique needs. My goal isn’t to replace boots-on-the-ground know-how with tech, but to enhance it, ensuring that every superintendent, subcontractor, and estimator can operate at their best with fewer bottlenecks and more clarity. In an industry that’s often slow to adapt, I bring a proactive, forward-thinking approach that respects the jobsite while embracing innovation. I speak both languages fluently: the language of tradespeople and the language of tech — and I know how to translate one to the other in a way that actually works. Whether it’s automating mundane tasks, streamlining communication between field and office, or implementing AI-driven insights into traditional workflows, I help companies build smarter, safer, and more efficiently — without losing the soul of the project
