Welcome to the future. Together with our clients at Massachusetts Institute of Technology Procon participated in the ribbon cutting ceremony for the John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center, developed as the first-of-its-kind Exchange Agreement between the General Services Administration and MIT.

Procon provided MIT construction management services for this $750M new facility which was part of a redevelopment project between MIT and GSA. The new facility at Kendall Square just outside of MIT’s campus was 10 years in the making and designed with the future in mind.

Not only will this be the home for the Department of Transportation to build the future of modern transit and develop a sustainable transit infrastructure, but the building itself is moving us into the future. The LEED Platinum building is expected to reduce emissions by over 50 percent from a typical building through the use of triple-paned glass, heat recovery chillers, EV charging, rainwater reclamation, a green roof, and dozens of other innovations all aimed at increased sustainability.

We are honored to be part of such an impactful project. It’s such a good feeling to see it come to fruition.

Procon Consulting, LLC (“Procon”), is on a multi-year growth trajectory and on pace to increase annual revenues by over 30 percent year-over-year (YOY) in 2023. (more…)

Procon is very excited to announce the launch of our new podcast “The Build Up.” The show will be hosted by Procon Consulting President and Co-Founder Kyu Jung. It will cover a range of topics relevant to the construction industry from new technology innovations, to advice for young professionals just starting out in their careers, and how we can play a role in building a more sustainable future. 

“This is something I’ve wanted to do for a long time,” said Kyu Jung. “I’ve always felt that there was an opportunity to leverage the communication platforms available to us in order to bring the conversations I was already having with colleagues and industry partners to a broader audience. This is the kind of dialogue and information sharing I wish I had access to when I was starting my career and I hope the content we produce is a valuable resource to those entering the field.”

The first episode features Procon’s Director of Technology Steve DeVito. Kyu and Steve discuss 360 Progress Monitoring, a process where 360-degree images are taken throughout a construction site at each phase of the construction process to allow for immersive documentation and virtual monitoring of construction progress. It’s a technology that’s been implemented by Procon for years but proved especially useful during the pandemic when access to job sites was more restricted. The technology proved so beneficial that the General Services Administration has now rolled it out to its entire portfolio of projects after the initial pilot project. 

Future episodes of The Build Up will be released monthly. The video version can be viewed on Procon’s YouTube channel and future episodes will also be available on Spotify and Apple Podcasts.

Procon, a leading construction management, commissioning, and technology solutions firm, was ranked No. 95 on ENR’s Top 100 Construction Management/PM-for-Fee Firms.

“Our spot on the ENR list is a result of our team’s entrepreneurial spirit, commitment to growing with our clients, and consistency in delivering solutions to keep owners and partners happy,” said President and Co-Founder, Kyu Jung, of Procon. “We are honored to be recognized along with so many other talented firms.”

ENR performs annual surveys of its key segments, and ranks companies within those areas. Procon first ranked in this category in 2018.
