Appointment setting for commercial contractors in Baton Rouge

An AI data center campus in West Feliciana Parish north of Baton Rouge with an initial 330 megawatts of utility capacity, built with Jacobs as engineering, procurement and construction manager.

Data center construction at this scale runs heavy on electrical and cooling work, and the site needs fire suppression, paving and access roads. Peak construction is expected to bring about 1,000 workers on site.

A three-story, 71,000-square-foot medical office building at the St. Elizabeth hospital in Gonzales, Ascension Parish, for women's primary care, cardiology, imaging, pharmacy and lab services, with a new facade, shared lobby, two elevators and more parking.

Imaging and clinic space mean mechanical, electrical and fire protection work through 2027, then flooring, post-construction cleaning and a new medical office janitorial contract when the building opens in early 2028; expanded parking adds paving work on the Highway 30 site.
