No recruiting pipeline. No training burden. Just certified, owner-side expertise on demand.

Supply is broken.

The AEC labor market has a supply problem your project pipeline cannot wait out. Owner-side roles are the tightest seat in the market.

Demand won't wait

2.3M

Worker shortfall

Three paths. Three very different bills.

Same role. Same project. The economics diverge fast.

Technology leadership, fractional or full-time.

CTO Chief Technology Officer

Owns the technology stack, vendor strategy, and engineering capability. Bridges the gap between field operations and platform decisions.





CAIO Chief AI Officer

Governs AI adoption across the firm. Sets policy, vendor diligence, model risk, and the line between assistive and autonomous use.

CIO Chief Innovation Officer

Runs the pilot-to-production pipeline. Turns scattered experiments into a portfolio with budget, metrics, and a kill list.

Most AEC firms need senior technology leadership.

A CTO to set platform direction, a Chief Innovation Officer to run pilots, a Chief AI Officer to govern adoption; but they can't always carry a full-time C-suite hire.

We place either.

The KPR Difference

We don't run keyword searches against LinkedIn. We place AEC-fluent technology operators who can read a project schedule and a model card.
