Data center and hyperscaler construction

The largest construction wave in US history is being built by contractors. The safety burden is theirs too.

FranklySafe is not sold to Microsoft or Meta. It is built for the general contractor putting up the facility and the electrical and mechanical trades working live alongside 30,000 degree arc flash risk. Insights+, the AI layer that reads your entire program at once, reads every trade's record on the site as one.

Built for the site team. 100 to 500 workers on a project, with the enterprise view above it.

Where it is being built

The buildout has a geography. It runs straight through our corridor.

The South Central states from Texas to Alabama pulled $43.3 billion in starts over the trailing twelve months, the largest regional cluster in the country. ConstructConnect names Arkansas directly in the 2026 pipeline. Hover a lit state for its figure.

The hazard and regulatory load

The specifics are what justify the spend.

Who we serve on these projects

Three buyers sit on every one of these sites.

General contractors

Turner, Mortenson, DPR, Holder, Whiting Turner

They own the recordable rate the hyperscaler reads. They need one clean record across every trade on the site.

Specialized trades

Rosendin, EMCOR, electrical and mechanical contractors

The crews doing the highest energy work carry the arc flash and LOTO exposure and the training burden that comes with it.

The hyperscalers above

Microsoft, Meta, Amazon, Oracle, and the neoclouds

They do not buy from us directly. They set the standard everyone below them has to prove they meet.

If your current setup cannot show you the pattern before the incident, the next recordable is already forming in your data. Walk a site with us this week.

Fifteen minutes. No deck. We walk one of your sites and show you what the data is already telling you.
