Zach Bertschi, President
Zach Bertschi is determined to bring a service that reaches and enriches the lives of the people that make up the backbone of America. His history has been a constant building process of experience and knowledge to make this dream a reality.
Bertschi began his professional career with Midwest Construction Services, later named Avenia, as the Fleet Manager for multiple divisions assigning equipment, trucks, and trailers to each department. He was responsible for equipment tracking for multiple job sites that could include 100 plus units per site as well as managing the shop, mechanics, and internal maintenance.
Following two and a half years with Avenia, Bertschi joined the construction division at Titan Machinery; focusing on selling construction equipment to contractors in the tri-state area. There, he was introduced to the job bidding process and the operation practices of companies at the local level.
In early 2011, Bertschi began working for MVM Contracting as a foreman in the field, running a variety of crews and learning the intricacies of the business. As he grew within MVM he eventually took on the Construction Manager role. As a Construction Manager, he was responsible for bidding jobs, scheduling crews, obtaining permits, and progress billing.
