The author is using one person who was involved in this action, Omri, to mean everyone who was involved, including his workers. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And he had his workers build]

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
