Adam Cooper
With a foundation built on craftsmanship and a career shaped by complexity, Adam Cooper serves as Director of Procurement at Inherent Commercial—where his deep field experience, meticulous eye for detail, and strategic mindset ensure projects start strong and stay on track. From managing vendor relationships to sourcing mission-critical materials, Adam brings a steady hand and sharp focus to one of the most vital parts of the construction process.
Originally from Seattle, Adam studied at both Ivy Tech and Purdue before diving into the construction industry. One of his most memorable projects was a biochemical research lab at the University of Illinois—a high-stakes build that required precision planning, schedule control, and an understanding of both systems and structure. It was the kind of project where procurement wasn’t just a task—it was a difference-maker.
Adam lives in Pendleton with his wife and their beloved Heeler/Beagle mix. When he’s not sourcing critical packages or coordinating vendor strategy, he’s probably landscaping, doing carpentry projects, or detailing his car with showroom-level polish. He’s a bit snobby about his lawn (and proud of it), and if you hear “Here Comes the Boom” playing, he’s likely getting fired up for a challenge.
In his role as Director of Procurement, Adam is an integral part of Inherent Commercial’s growth—helping to establish new market locations and fostering trusted partnerships.
