Meet Oscar Armendariz
Owners shouldn't have to take the contractor's word for it. Obedient Technology puts experienced owner-side project and construction managers on your project: people who work for you, not the GC, and who document every decision.
I founded Obedient Technology because I kept watching the same thing happen: owners funding capital projects without the front-end discipline, cost controls, or field representation to protect their investment, and finding out too late.
I'm an owner-side project manager and construction manager with 15+ years of direct industrial experience, including work for Coca-Cola, International Paper, and Smurfit Westrock. I currently serve as the owner's construction manager on a large-scale data center build, and I've coordinated contractor workforces of more than 100 people on a single project. I've led teams of up to 60 and delivered on time and under budget because of disciplined planning, not luck.
I work exclusively for the owner. Not the contractor. Not the engineer. The person whose capital is at risk and whose plant has to run when it's over.
Today, Obedient Technology puts that same standard on your project. Every project manager and construction manager we place is vetted against how I would do the job myself: owner-side, documented, and honest when something isn't right.

Four Disciplines on Every Project
These are the four things that determine whether a capital project succeeds or fails before the first contractor ever mobilizes.
Front-End Loading. We define the scope, lock the estimate, and build the schedule before money moves. A well-executed FEP-3 phase is the single highest-return investment on any capital project.
Cost and Schedule Control. We track every dollar against the approved budget by discipline, review every invoice against the Schedule of Values, and update the schedule weekly. The owner always knows where the project stands, not at the end when it's too late.
Accountability. We work for you. We review contractor work, challenge engineering deliverables, enforce safety programs, and document every decision in writing. Nothing hides.
Communication. Daily field reports during construction. Weekly written status updates. Monthly owner meetings. And immediate notification, the same day, for anything that changes the budget, the schedule, or the scope.
