Where these jobs slip, and what we do about it
Infrastructure projects rarely fail on the work itself. They fail in three predictable places.
| 1 | Handoffs between trades We self-perform civil, structural, electrical, cabling and commissioning, so most of those handoffs happen inside one company, on one schedule. |
WHAT WE DO ABOUT IT The cabling crew waits on the electrician, who waits on the general contractor to release the room. Every handoff is somewhere a week can disappear, and no single party owns it. |
| 2 | Long-lead material Procurement usually sits with whoever is not carrying the schedule, so racking, switchgear and cooling equipment land after the crews do. |
WHAT WE DO ABOUT IT We run procurement ourselves on fit-out work. On the Wisconsin warehouse that meant electrical, lighting, racking and door hardware were on site before the crews were. |
| 3 | Closeout written from memory We close out as we go: row by row on cabling, unit by unit on commissioning, so the records exist when the work does. |
WHAT WE DO ABOUT IT Work gets built and then documented afterwards — port maps reconstructed, test records missing, acceptance stalled on paperwork for a building that is physically finished. |
Three ways to bring us in
Not every client needs the same thing from us. Most of our work takes one of three shapes.
| Trade package | You already hold the general contract. We self-perform a defined scope inside your schedule — cabling and racks, electrical, racking and automation, or commissioning — and report to your project manager. |
| General contractor | You want one party to hold the build. Permits, trades, sequencing, procurement, inspection and closeout all sit with us, and the owner deals with one team from survey through final acceptance. |
| Service and commissioning | The equipment already exists. We restore, install, integrate, test and verify it, then hand over the port maps, as-builts and test records that let you accept it. |
