General Application · American Housing Corporation

The American Dream is built, not inherited.

I'm David T Phung, a construction-delivery operator and product owner. Over eight years I've delivered $125M+ in construction on schedule, built and scaled a production facility from the ground up, navigated city-to-federal permitting, and owned a platform serving a million users. American Housing is industrializing the home, and that is the cross-functional problem I've spent my career solving.

Why AHC, Why Now

We already agree on the hard part.

AHC didn't start with a house. It started with a thesis about production. So did I. These are the convictions I'd bring to the factory floor on day one.

01

Abundance over scarcity

AHCSave the American Dream through all-out production: more homes, faster, for families.

MeMy career is getting things built on schedule: $125M+ in construction delivered, a production line scaled 460%. I turn plans into finished, occupied buildings.

02

The physical world is the hard part

AHCA kit-of-parts you can mass-produce, flat-pack, ship intermodal, and assemble in days.

MeI build in the physical world. I stood up a production facility from bare equipment to 1,400 units a week, and delivered base buildings and tenant improvements to the millimeter.

03

Beauty is a requirement

AHCHomes designed for families and engineered for scale. Quality is not negotiable.

MeI am an architect by training who delivered luxury retail for Louis Vuitton and Balenciaga: craft, materials, and precision under strict seasonal deadlines.

In AHC's words
  • Save the American Dream through all-out housing production.
  • Designed for families. Engineered for scale.
  • The American Dream is built, not inherited.
  • United We Build.

Superpowers, Mapped

Five layers. One builder who's touched all of them.

AHC is vertically integrated, from land to factory to truck to front door to software. My background isn't adjacent to that stack. It's distributed across it.

  1. Layer 01

    Land & Entitlement

    AHC buildsBuy land, clear entitlements, and unlock sites for production.

    I bringOwner's representative through feasibility, entitlement, and permitting. I have cleared city, county, and federal approvals in a single review cycle, where three to four are normal, saving 7 weeks and $50-70K.

  2. Layer 02

    Building Systems / Kit-of-Parts

    AHC buildsA proprietary kit-of-parts engineered for mass production and repeatable assembly.

    I bringArchitecture degree plus eight years of delivery. Luxury tenant improvements for Louis Vuitton and Balenciaga at millimeter accuracy, plus core-and-shell base buildings. Fluent in drawings, specs, tolerances, and MEP coordination.

  3. Layer 03

    Factory & Production

    AHC buildsAn Austin factory with custom automation turning panels into flat-packed homes.

    I bringI built a food-production facility from the ground up: equipment, utilities, and line layout. Then I scaled it from 250 to 1,400 units a week (+460%) with SOPs at every station and 98%+ on-time-in-full.

  4. Layer 04

    Logistics & Assembly

    AHC buildsIntermodal shipping to anywhere, then on-site assembly in days, not months.

    I bringOperations and supply chain: $1.1M in contracts negotiated, landed costs cut from 18% to 11%, plus installation sequencing, equipment procurement, commissioning, and facility turnover.

  5. Layer 05

    Alamo, the software platform

    AHC buildsOne platform orchestrating underwriting, site planning, factory, and assembly.

    I bringProduct Owner of a platform serving one million users across the US, Canada, and the UK. I led a 10-engineer release train to 99.98% uptime and consolidated 12 APIs (-60% reconciliation), aligning engineering, finance, and operations on one schedule.

Proof of Work

Four projects. Real numbers.

Not a wishlist. The work I have actually delivered, and how each one maps to building homes at scale.

Manufacturing · Operations · 2023-2025

Built a production facility

Founding team at Happy Friday Coffee. Stood up a food-production facility from bare equipment, utility connections, and line layout, then scaled the line and ran the construction-to-operations handoff.

For AHC: AHC's factory challenge in miniature: stand up a line, write the SOPs, and scale throughput. I have done exactly this.

Owner's rep, land to occupancy

Day One → Day Ninety

What I'd actually build.

Not a wishlist. Concrete contributions mapped to your stack, in the order I'd ship them.

  1. Weeks 1-2

    Walk the line

    Walk the Austin factory and a prototype rowhome end to end, the way I commission any project. Document the real production graph, station by station, as the source of truth.

  2. Weeks 2-6

    Instrument production

    Bring SOPs and on-time-in-full discipline to the line, the same playbook that took my production facility from 250 to 1,400 units a week.

  3. Weeks 4-8

    De-risk the pipeline

    Apply an entitlement and permitting playbook for new markets: run approvals in parallel rather than in sequence, the way I cleared three agencies in one cycle.

  4. Weeks 6-12

    Tighten the software loop

    Bring a product owner's discipline to Alamo: align engineering, finance, and operations on one delivery schedule and consolidate the data sources.

  5. Ongoing

    Own delivery end to end

    Run the work owner's-rep style, from land to occupancy, with standardized frameworks and executive reporting across markets.

✦ ✦ ✦

Exceptional fit. Let's build.

Your top priority, Construction delivery, maps straight onto work I've already shipped.

Where I'd start
  • Run AHC projects from land to occupancy: feasibility, entitlement, permitting, commissioning, and turnover.
  • Bring SOP discipline and on-time-in-full metrics to the line, the playbook that scaled my facility from 250 to 1,400 units a week.
  • Tighten landed costs and the assembly sequence, from procurement to installation to commissioning.
  • Bring a product owner's release-train discipline to Alamo and consolidate its data sources.
Let's make it real
The ask

United We Build.

If any of this resonates, I'd love to build with you. I'm ready to walk the factory, get my hands on the kit, and ship from day one.

From land to occupancy, I get things built.
