With the help of his wife and son Mike, Crossland began erecting metal buildings in the Columbus area. By 1979, he had established a relationship with J&M Farms by designing a 75,000 square foot steel building for their farm. Over the next few decades, the company worked on dozens more construction projects for J&M. In 1990, Ivan Crossland Sr., diagnosed with cancer, began to train his six sons to take over the company. While still acting as CEO, Crossland Sr. launched Crossland Heavy Contractors (CHC) with the help of his sons in 1993. The division specialized in bridges, plant work, and smaller civil projects.〔 In 1994, Crossland Construction won the bid for a $23.5 million job working on the Pittsburg State University Technology Center. The job generated further growth and notoriety for the company. In the same year, Crossland Construction opened up a branch in Northwest Arkansas.〔 Ivan Crossland Sr. died of cancer in 2002. His six sons assumed leadership roles in the company, with Ivan Crossland Jr. as CEO, and Bennie Crossland as president.〔 Crossland Construction built Arkansas’s first Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) certified building in 2004, the Blair Public Library in Fayetteville, Arkansas.
