Critical infrastructure projects we support
At LVI Associates, we hire across critical infrastructure projects that rely on specialized talent to meet strict safety, reliability, and technical demands across the full asset lifecycle:
Data centers and digital infrastructure
Rapid capacity growth has increased demand for technical, project, and commissioning talent. Shortfalls make it harder to support new builds, expansions, and lifecycle work.
Renewable Energy and Energy Storage
Solar, wind, hydro, and battery projects grow faster than the available workforce. This shortage affects build speed and limits expansion plans.
Oil, gas, and pipeline infrastructure
Pipeline, terminal, and refinery projects need specialists with strong safety and technical backgrounds. Limited talent increases compliance pressure and project delays.
Water and wastewater utilities
Treatment plants and pipeline systems rely on technical staff who understand regulatory and process demands. Shortages lead to compliance issues and reduced efficiency.
Transportation and logistics infrastructure
Rail, transit, highways, ports, and maritime assets need engineering and project talent to support upgrades and maintenance cycles. Hiring challenges push programs off schedule and raise cost.
Telecoms and fiber networks
Network expansion depends on specialists who can deliver fast build rates and stable operations. A tight labor market slows rollouts and strains existing teams.
Power and grid systems
Utilities struggle to find engineers and project staff who can manage aging assets and complex upgrade programs. Talent gaps slow modernization and raise operational risk.
Healthcare and hospitals
Hospitals require engineers and operations staff who support electrical, mechanical, and life-safety systems. A limited talent pool affects system stability and compliance.
Industrial and manufacturing facilities
Plants depend on mechanical, electrical, and control specialists to maintain uptime and support upgrades. Retirements and skill gaps increase failure risk and slow improvement work.
