Data center and energy · Now offering
Specialized construction support for data center, energy, and infrastructure projects that need disciplined coordination, scheduling, and execution, from a San Antonio general contractor.
What is data center and energy construction?
Data center, energy, and infrastructure projects are built around power, equipment, and dates that are hard to move. The construction includes site and civil work, concrete, structure, and coordination of specialty trades, and the controlling items are usually utilities and long-lead equipment, not the walls.
Trusted offers construction support for these projects: preconstruction, design coordination, permitting guidance, site work, construction, and closeout. We are a general contractor, not a designer or an equipment supplier, so we work with your design team and specialists and keep the schedule honest.
See how we handle site work and concrete, industrial buildings, and ground-up construction. And bring us in early: preconstruction is where the schedule and budget get real.
How we support
Every project has its own scope and specialists. Here is where Trusted fits.
Clearing, grading, and excavation that prepare the site and the pads on it.
Forms, rebar, placement, and finishing for slabs, pads, and structural pours.
Steel-framed buildings and metal shells, framed and enclosed on schedule.
Drainage, underground utilities, and coordination with providers and specialty trades.
We coordinate with your architect, engineers, and specialty trades. Specialized scope outside general contracting stays with the right specialists.
The data center and energy process
The same disciplined process we use on every project, tuned for schedules that are tied to power, equipment, and delivery dates.
Tell us the project, the site, and the date that matters. We tell you what is realistic, in plain numbers, and where you may need other specialists.
First callWe coordinate with your architect, engineers, and stakeholders early to improve constructability, budgeting, and execution before construction begins.
Early coordinationBudgets, phasing, and a schedule built backward from your key date, with long-lead equipment and utilities flagged first.
Before contractPermit guidance, then clearing, grading, drainage, and utilities that make the site ready to build.
Getting startedConcrete, structure, and trade coordination under one superintendent and one project manager, with weekly reporting and no surprise change orders.

What is included
These projects are a chain of dependent steps with hard dates attached. We manage each link and the handoffs between them.
Evaluating a site or a project concept? Call us early. We will help you test the schedule and budget before you commit.
Access, drainage, utilities, and approvals reviewed before you commit to the land.
Clearing, grading, drainage, and underground utilities prepared to plan.
Slabs, pads, flatwork, and structural pours placed and finished to spec.
Steel framing and enclosure, dried in on schedule.
Specialty trades and equipment deliveries sequenced against the schedule.
Punch list, inspections, and closeout documents.
Cost and schedule
Every project is different, so we do not quote a price per square foot from a web page. These are the factors that move the number and the date most, and the ones we price first.
Utility availability, capacity, and connection lead times often control the whole schedule.
Soils, grading, drainage, and access shape earthwork, concrete, and sequencing.
Electrical gear, cooling equipment, and other specialty items can take months to arrive.
Delivery and energization dates drive how work is staged and what is ordered first.
Controlled access, safety requirements, and site logistics add planning and coordination.
Review cycles and inspections set the start date and the pace of the work.

TIPS awarded contractor
Trusted holds TIPS awarded contractor status through The Interlocal Purchasing System. For qualifying clients, that means we can be hired directly for data center and energy projects, because we have already been publicly vetted.
Qualifying clients can hire us directly, without running a public hard-bid process, which helps when a delivery date is driving the schedule.
Our contractor status has been publicly vetted through TIPS, so the procurement groundwork is already done.
TIPS changes how you hire us, not how we build. You still get real preconstruction, scheduling, and cost control, with one point of contact.
Common questions
Data center construction is the building of facilities that house computing, storage, and network equipment. These projects revolve around reliable power, cooling, security, and a tightly sequenced schedule. The work includes site and civil work, concrete, structure, and building systems, with long-lead equipment driving the timeline.
Data center and energy support is a service Trusted is now offering. We provide construction support for data center, energy, and infrastructure projects that need disciplined coordination, scheduling, and execution. Tell us about your project, and we will tell you plainly how we can help and where you may need other specialists.
We support site and civil work, concrete and foundations, steel and building shells, and construction coordination for energy and infrastructure projects. If your project has specialized scope outside general contracting, we coordinate with your design team and specialty trades.
Capacity is often tied to a customer, a power connection, or a financing milestone, and equipment can take months to arrive. A plan that works backward from the energization or delivery date, with long-lead items ordered early, protects the whole project.
Trusted is a general contractor, not an architect or engineer. Through design assist, we coordinate with your architect, engineers, and stakeholders early to improve constructability, budgeting, and execution before construction begins.
We review utility availability and routing early, coordinate with the design team and utility providers, and sequence site work and building construction around them. Power and utility timing often controls the overall schedule, so it is part of preconstruction.
It depends on the size, the site, permitting, utility connections, and equipment lead times. During preconstruction we build a working schedule that includes those controlling items, so you have a realistic plan before you commit.
There is no single price per square foot. Cost depends on the site, the power and cooling design, the structure, and the equipment. We provide a preliminary budget with the assumptions spelled out, and the first conversation costs nothing.
