Richard’s Story

A personal note from Kurt: I would be honored if you would take a few minutes and watch the following video on my dad, the founder of this company. It is a vignette of him a few short years after retirement, doing the things he loved. My dad had a long and very interesting career: he was a brilliant engineer, an inveterate entrepreneur, and the hardest working, most generous person that I have ever known. Growing up, he had high expectations of my siblings and I, something not always appreciated at the time. But now it’s clear that I am deeply in his debt. We value family here at Bangert, and that includes all that bless me by working here. Today, Richard, to my great sadness, is saddled with Alzheimer’s. His legacy is with us every day, and there are no words that can fully express my gratitude.

“I want to thank my son, Reid Bangert (Richard’s grandson), for making this video.” – Kurt Bangert

Our Vision For The Future

There have been few points in history when we have been on the precipice of profound change in the construction industry. Today we are at that precipice. More and more companies are looking to tackle their part of the staggering $1.7 trillion dollars of waste annually and the tech world is stepping up, with systems that have the promise of transforming age-old processes and the businesses our clients are driving forward into a bright new future.

From our perspective, these are exciting times, reminiscent of the era in which the company was started. New technologies like Sage Intacct Construction truly hold the promise of real business transformation.
