Scalable Staffing Solutions for Data Center Construction in Emerging Markets

Overview

A leading energy infrastructure and engineering firm supports the construction and development of critical systems across industries, including the rapidly growing data center sector. Their efforts contribute significantly to highpower infrastructure in emerging markets like Salt Lake City, where energy demands are accelerating.

Challenge

The client needed to rapidly scale its project management and technical workforce to meet the explosive growth of data centers, particularly in markets with limited local talent pipelines. Their direct-hire-only model created challenges with retention and ramp-up speed, leading to project delays and costly turnover.

Solution

Kelly Digital Infrastructure (KDI) guided the client through a strategic shift from a traditional direct-hire model to a more agile, retention-focused Statement of Work (SOW) structure. This enabled them to deploy talent quickly while maintaining operational stability across critical project phases in regions like Salt Lake City.
