    Wayne Campbell

    Project Director, Design

    Webcor


    Wayne Campbell has over three decades of experience in the AEC industry, with a focus on facilitating the design process and team collaboration for large aviation and healthcare projects. Starting his career as a programming specialist in architecture, Wayne climbed the ranks to Design Principal and BIM Manager for notable design studios. His move into the construction profession over 15 years ago enriched his portfolio, and now as Webcor's Project Director for Design, he is a champion for multi-disciplinary collaboration for complex design-build projects.

    Wayne plays a crucial role in guiding the design process, acting as the link between Webcor and the designers, engineers, and other consultants. His aim is clear communication that ensures everyone is on the same page for a well-coordinated design, balancing the workflow with the project’s aspirations, technical requirements, budget, schedule, quality, and performance goals. Wayne’s commitment to innovative problem-solving and his embrace of a collaborative work environment have been central themes in his career. This was demonstrated most clearly during the delivery of the award-winning SFO Harvey Milk Terminal 1 Boarding Area B project, as Design Manager for the Austin-Webcor Joint Venture. With Wayne’s extensive background in both architecture and construction, he has mastered the art of balancing creative vision with practical constraints, ensuring open communication and partnership-driven behaviors are at the backbone of a successful project culture.

    Richard Sasser

    Project Director & Area Manager, Aviation

    Austin Commercial


    Richard Sasser has led a distinguished, 42-year career with Austin Commercial, dedicating 15 of those years as an Area Manager. In the last two decades, he has adeptly managed complex design-build and CMAR projects within various sectors, including aviation, technology, healthcare, and commercial development. Notably, Richard has been an integral part of the San Francisco International Airport's evolution since 2015, ensuring the Austin-Webcor Joint Venture (AWJV) achieves superior quality and client satisfaction on major capital projects.

    At the helm of AWJV, Richard was pivotal in the successful delivery of the award-winning SFO Harvey Milk Terminal 1 Boarding Area B project. His leadership and mastery of progressive design-build methodologies helped the team not only achieve but exceed the project's objectives, including earning several ‘firsts’ in the industry. The project’s extraordinary success is the best example of how Richard’s commitment to production, driven by collective feedback and innovation, can result in a series of collaborative triumphs. Richard is passionate about fostering team cultures that resonate with project goals and community values, emphasizing trust, mutual respect, diversity, empowerment, and accountability. His proudest moments are when colleagues and stakeholders feel pertinent to the project’s realization, as part of an inclusive and highly functional team.

    None of our projects are created or built on an island. Every project has 3rd party stakeholders including, permitting agencies, regulatory agencies, local municipalities, neighbors, and interested parties, all of whom can have a negative impact on the results of your project. All while the project team has little control over getting their support. Learn how Jeanne Kuttel, former Manager, Division of Engineering for the California Department of Water Resources, and her project team(s) have used partnering to help develop working relationships with 3rd parties so they support the success of their project(s). This is a powerful story that could make or break many projects that face requirements and resistance from many different 3rd parties.
