What iiCON Construction does

iiCON Construction (legal name iiCON Construction Colorado LLC) is a privately held commercial general contractor founded in 2014 and headquartered in Colorado Springs, Colorado. The company delivers full-service commercial construction—new builds, additions, and renovations—across government, military, education, commercial, industrial, and non-profit/faith-based verticals, operating exclusively along Colorado's Front Range with selective federal project work extending beyond the state (e.g., Department of the Air Force, Naval Air Station Fort Worth). Customers include the Colorado National Guard, USDA Forest Service, US Air Force Academy, Pikes Peak Community College, multiple K-12 and charter schools (Atlas Preparatory, Monument Academy, Fremont RE-2 district), and Cheyenne Mountain Zoo.

The core offering is design-build delivery, organized around a proprietary "C.O.R.E" process that integrates architects, estimators, and builders from project inception with real-time cost data, with the stated aim of compressing schedules, reducing change orders, and providing a single point of accountability. Service modules span preconstruction planning, K-12 construction, government/federal facilities, and industrial work. There is no software product, app, or API; the "technology" is a construction-management methodology rather than a digital platform. The firm relies on a network of external design and engineering partners (CSNA, CRP, FBT, RS&H, Kimley-Horn, MGA, YOW, Galletta architects and engineers) assembled per project.

The business model is project-based contracting revenue, priced per-project on a quote/bid basis with no publicly disclosed pricing. Go-to-market is direct enterprise/field sales driven by relationship-based business development, a high rate of repeat customers, and referrals, supplemented by content marketing, a regional newsletter, industry events, and ABC chapter participation. The company is founder/management-owned (Gregory Collier, President; Don Johnson, Executive Vice-President/Owner) with 11-50 employees, no disclosed outside funding, and reports more than $1.1 billion in cumulative completed-project value since inception.
