Alaskan Realities:Barriers to Project Completion &Unique Construction Problems

Alaskan Realities:Barriers to Project Completion &Unique Construction Problems

Site costs -- little infrastructure in place

High cost of Heavy Equipment mobilization and repair.

High cost of Quality Control -- Inspections

Coordination of very tight construction and delivery season:

• Long lead time for production  and delivery of  product - windows, cabinets, etc.

• Limited availabily of barges due to competing business  (Fishing industry)

• Costs and scheduling "Connex" storage and shipping containers                

Transportation and upkeep of "core" crew - specialty crews

Shortage of qualified manpower (electricians, etc.)

(Mitigated with training of local workforce)
