Why do Columbus data center builds bring in traveling crews?

Central Ohio grew from a small market to a major hyperscale region in a few years. The local low-voltage workforce did not grow as fast, so large phases rely on crews from other states.

Do you cover other Ohio sites?

Yes. All of Ohio and the rest of the Midwest are covered in our 7-to-10-day window.

Data Center Cabling Crews in Columbus, Ohio

The market

Central Ohio has become one of the fastest-growing hyperscale regions in the United States, with several of the largest cloud operators building campuses in and around New Albany, Hilliard and Dublin. It grew from a secondary market into a major build region in only a few years, and the local skilled-trades pool is still catching up.

Where we work

New Albany and the Licking County side of the region; Hilliard and Dublin to the northwest; Columbus itself; and other Ohio sites.

What central Ohio builds need from a crew

Traveling crews that can stay. Many phases here are long. Rotations of 21 on and 7 off keep the same people on site through a phase instead of a rotating cast.
Campus fiber. Multi-building campuses need high-count campus fiber between buildings — ribbon splicing and OSP work that runs in parallel with the halls.
Winter weather. Outdoor splicing through an Ohio winter needs heated tents and planning.
