  Jason Seiler

  I am a construction professional with nearly 20 years of experience. I have a passion for learning and a passion for construction and it shows in my career timeline: •Took my first step into the world of construction in 2004 by becoming a Local 130 Apprentice Plumber. •Passed the Chicago Journeyman Plumber's License exam. •Was invited to become a Plumbing Project Estimator for one of the largest plumbing contractors in Chicago. •Pursued and received a dual Masters Degree in Business Administration (emphasis in accounting) and Project Management. •Accepted an opportunity to be Project and Business Development Manager for the growing plumbing division within a large multi-faceted mechanical contractor in the Chicagoland area. •Joined a large, national general contractor as a Project Estimator. •Championed several continuous improvement teams and helped implement new bid invitation software throughout the organization. •Published my first article in ENR Magazine in 2018. •Accepted a position as an Estimator for one of ENR's largest contractors – Barton Malow. •Data and Automation quickly exploded here at Barton Malow and I found myself working with our Transformation Team building Power Bi reports (which I had no idea how to do at the time) •I quickly realized that I had a passion for Innovation, Technological Improvement, Data, and Automations and Barton Malow was gracious enough to allow me to pursue that now as a Sr. Manager of Business Transformation. Since taking on this role I've led several initiatives and have seen my team grow from an army of one to 4 of us working to roll out Autodesk Takeoff, Historical Estimate Data Capture and Analytics, and other smaller endeavors. It's been an incredible journey and I'm proud to be a part of the construction industry both inside and outside of the trades. I'm excited to see what the future holds as we continue to embrace technology, data, and transformation.
