Aerotek Services Helps General Contractor Scale Self-Perform Work Across Data Center Projects

Construction professionals wearing hard hats, safety glasses and high-visibility vests walk through an active jobsite with heavy equipment and earthmoving work in the background.

The Challenge

The client recently constructed a new distribution center and sought a trusted partner to manage their preventative and corrective maintenance programs, including their automated material handling system. This partner would be responsible for building the programs from the ground up, establishing maintenance routines without historical benchmarks. Additionally, several issues emerged as the client ramped up operations, increasing their need to offload their maintenance responsibilities as they focused on their core distribution business.

Industrial maintenance technician uses digital technology and connected equipment to perform electrical system monitoring and troubleshooting.

The Solution

Aerotek Services was selected as the fully outsourced maintenance provider — overseeing all deliverables outlined in the statement of work including staffing, compliance with site safety requirements, system uptime and more. This also included on-site management of 12 locally sourced automation and maintenance technicians. To proactively reduce labor expenses, UKG timekeeping technology was implemented to provide the client with visibility into technician work hours. Through quarterly business reviews with the client, Aerotek Services reported on established metrics and KPIs to ensure transparency, workplace safety and track progress.
