The Growing Alabama Construction Industry
Alabama is home to several large construction projects, including four billion dollar projects. Large projects like these offer many opportunities for contractors to take advantage of.
Novelis's $2.5 billion investment in an aluminum recycling and rolling plant in Baldwin County presents significant opportunities for Alabama contractors.
The extensive construction projects—including the plant itself and a new corporate center for advanced manufacturing—will require local expertise, potentially leading to increased contracts and business growth for contractors in the region. The project is expected to be completed in late 2025.
First Solar Inc.'s $1.1 billion investment in a new solar module manufacturing facility in Lawrence County is currently underway. The construction of the 2.4 million-square-foot plant will require extensive building and infrastructure work, potentially leading to increased contracts and business growth for local contractors. The project is expected to be completed by 2025.
The $2.7 billion I-10 Mobile River Bridge and Bayway Project includes building a new bridge over the Mobile River, replacing the interstate across Mobile Bay, and upgrading I-10 interchanges.
The planned bridge features a 2,550-foot-long main span structure crossing the 600-foot-wide navigation channel. High-level approach spans will connect to either side, ensuring a minimum 100-year service life and the ability to withstand the impact of a colliding vessel. Construction is expected to start in early 2025.
With such substantial investments in Alabama’s infrastructure, contractors have the opportunity to secure lucrative projects. However, managing the complexities of these large-scale undertakings requires meticulous financial tracking and reporting.
Construction accounting software can be a game-changer, providing contractors with the tools to streamline operations, improve profitability, and ensure compliance with industry standards.
