What Asplundh Construction does

Asplundh Construction is a privately held utility infrastructure construction services company that evolved from Asplundh Service Co. (founded in the early 1960s) and now operates as a subsidiary of Asplundh Infrastructure Group (AIG) within the broader Asplundh family of companies. The firm self-performs construction and maintenance across electric power delivery, natural gas, civil, and emergency restoration disciplines, serving investor-owned utilities, federal agencies such as Bonneville Power Administration, municipal utilities, electric cooperatives, and developers throughout the United States.

The company's core service portfolio spans five integrated lines: Power Delivery (distribution, transmission, substations, street and intelligent lighting, fiber, and renewable/storage integration), Gas Services (pipelines, distribution mains, regulator stations, bare main replacement, trenchless technologies, leak detection, meter and regulator replacement), Civil Services (foundations, grading, structural support, condition assessments, retrofits), Emergency Restoration (24/7 storm and disaster response), and Engineering & Design (multi-disciplinary engineering, LiDAR-based transmission routing, substation planning, and Engineer-Procure-Construct delivery). Underlying technology assets include the AVMS Live real-time GPS fleet tracking system used for restoration coordination, LiDAR data analysis for engineering design and transmission line routing, and advanced engineering modeling tools integrated through the EPC delivery model.

Asplundh Construction generates revenue through project-based professional services contracts priced via custom quotes tied to scope, complexity, and customer specifications, typically structured as multi-year engagements. Distribution is via an enterprise field-sales motion with a single point of contact under the 'One Asplundh' approach, which orchestrates work across the family of companies. The firm is headquartered in Horsham, Pennsylvania, employs 1,001–5,000 people, operates nationwide, and is family-owned, leveraging union partnerships, scalable workforce capacity, and a safety-first culture to compete for both planned utility capex and cyclical storm restoration work.
