Gregg Davis, senior VP and CIO at Webcor Builders, a construction company based in San Mateo, Calif. has been involved in the technology industry for more than 20 years. As CIO of Webcor, Davis oversees the construction company’s entire IT department, dealing with everything from off shore software development, client consulting, virtual building design, and daily internal IT needs and planning. Davis has been with Webcor since 2001, when the technology consulting firm he founded in 1992, BridgeNet Information Systems, was purchased by the company. He’s been involved with the IT sector of construction for more than 12 years where he’s worked with clients to incorporate IT into their planning processes and developing business interruption and disaster planning during building design and construction. Davis is proving that IT is more than a support organization in modern construction companies. At every stage of the building process he’s used the IT department to bring about true added value for the company, making IT a vital partner in the business process. He’s especially involved with developing virtual building tools, leading the way to producing multidimensional models of projects and their complex systems. It’s through virtualization that he hopes to bring about even more value from IT, catching problems before they happen and creating efficient ways to view changes in the planning and implementation of construction projects.
