HERNDON, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Suffolk, one of the largest and most innovative construction enterprises in the country, has announced the opening of its new office in Herndon, Virginia. Northern Virginia has increasingly become a hub for the data center sector, and significant construction has been planned for the region over the next decade. The experts on Suffolk’s Mission Critical Center of Excellence team – with their collective delivery of more than 50 data center campuses totaling over three gigawatts in 30 states – are well equipped to meet the demand.
Operations in Virginia will be led by Charles McCarthy, National Chief Operating Officer of Mission Critical at Suffolk.

Suffolk has expanded several community partnerships in the region. This includes developing pre-apprenticeship programs with a client to ready individuals for mission critical construction by creating onsite lab curriculum and partnering with local educational institutes to empower the next generation of construction leaders. Suffolk’s additional community relations efforts include a partnership with Willing Warriors, a nonprofit that provides retreat stays and programs that positively impact wounded, injured and ill service members and disabled Veterans, at no cost to the participants.
