Engineering and consulting firm Terracon has strengthened its digital strategy leadership with the appointment of a new director of product, reinforcing the company’s focus on technology-driven service delivery across infrastructure and development projects.
Frank Lazaro has been named to the role, where he will oversee product development initiatives tied to digital services, data delivery systems, and emerging technology adoption across project lifecycles.
The position is designed to align technical consulting capabilities with evolving client demands for more integrated and data-centric project execution.
In his new role, Lazaro will focus on expanding Terracon’s digital offerings, with an emphasis on improving efficiency in engineering workflows and enhancing data utilization across project phases—from early site selection through construction and long-term asset management.
His responsibilities include guiding product strategy for digital platforms used in environmental, geotechnical, materials, and infrastructure consulting services.
The appointment reflects increasing demand across the construction and engineering sector for tools that streamline project coordination, improve predictive analysis, and support more informed decision-making during design and construction.
Across the architecture, engineering, and construction (AEC) sector, firms are investing heavily in digital transformation strategies. These include the integration of data platforms, predictive modeling tools, and automated reporting systems aimed at improving project delivery outcomes.
As infrastructure projects grow more complex, consulting firms are increasingly expected to provide not just technical analysis, but also digital tools that support real-time collaboration and performance tracking.
This shift is reshaping hiring priorities, with greater emphasis on leaders who can bridge traditional engineering expertise with digital product development.
