Foreman-led PEMB crews. You keep the scope; we run the crew.
Field-proven crews deployed across all 50 states. Built for hyperscale data centers, industrial facilities, and the most demanding erection schedules in the country.
Call now(772) 285-6009Alpha Labor supplies PEMB erection crews nationwide — on site within 24 hours. When the schedule's tight and you need bodies who actually know pre-engineered metal building, we ship them. No generalists. No rookies. Every erector is hired, vetted, and field-tested on PEMB — the only work we do.
We supply foreman-led PEMB crews as the employer of record. You hold and accept the erection scope and set the sequence, our foreman directs our crew day to day, and we bill hourly labor rather than a lump-sum contract.
Fill gaps, cover a specialty task, or hit a date your own crew cannot reach. Slots into the team you already have.
A self-contained crew under one or two of our foremen, taking a building, an area, or a phase of your scope.
Full-site and campus deployments across shifts, with multiple foremen and an Alpha field operations manager on the ground.
Same model in all three. You hold the scope; we run the crew. See the full scope and compliance answers →
We are the only company in the United States that hyperfocuses on pre-engineered metal building erection manpower at national scale. Generalist staffing agencies spread across 100 trades. We go all-in on one.
PEMB erecting companies that work with us don't get a generalist labor pool. They get the most experienced, credentialed, PEMB-specific erection workforce available anywhere in the country. From four-man supplemental crews to 300-person deployments on hyperscale data center builds, Alpha Labor is the only call you need to make.
2M+ hours and zero recordable injuries. That's not luck — it's a hiring filter, a daily jobsite standard, and a non-negotiable culture. Our 0.71 EMR (2026) runs well below the 1.00 industry average — a safety record that protects your schedule and lowers the risk you take on when our crew is on your site.
Every PEMB erector is tiered and assessed before deployment — Level 1 through Senior Foreman. We don't send warm bodies. We send people who know the difference between a girt and a purlin, can read an erection drawing, and execute without supervision.
We don't just send people — we make sure your project is healthy. Field operations managers with 10+ years in PEMB oversee every deployment. When you tell us your problem, we already know the answer. We've lived it.
Rigid frames bolt to anchor bolts bay-by-bay. Purlins, girts, eave struts, and cable bracing lock the structure into square before the next bay goes up.
On paper, yes — we're a staffing company. In practice, that's where the resemblance ends. Traditional staffing throws bodies at the wall until something sticks.They send you ten people and you're lucky to keep four. The other six wash out in a week, and your schedule slips while you re-interview.
We send you ten. You keep ten.Every crew we put on a job is intact, vetted, and led by a foreman who's run this exact scope before. No training on your dime. No babysitting. No turnover. You get the throughput of a subcontractor without locking yourself into a sub's contract — the speed, the accountability, and the muscle to hit a date the original schedule said was impossible.
If your GC needs bodies, call anyone.
If your GC needs erectors who can hit the date, call Alpha Labor.
Multi-building data center campuses from slab to skin. Tilt, PEMB, hybrid — whatever the shell system, we've staffed it on an active data center site. Tier-III, Tier-IV, edge, colo. We've been on all of them.
Data center GCs live and die by the handoff date to the electrical and mechanical trades. We stage, sequence, and erect to hit that date — not the one on the original schedule.
Badged, backgrounded, briefed. Our foremen know what a confidential site looks like, what doesn't get photographed, and how to keep a 200-person deck clean.
Data center builds almost never end at Phase 1. We staff for the next phase while still finishing this one — same crew, same leadership, no re-onboarding cost.
The 60′ × 100′ building you just scrolled through is 0.035% of one of our average data center scopes. We lead with it because you can see it in one screen. Everything we actually do, you'd have to fly over.
Every scope below, executed hundreds of times. No generalists. No learning curve on your schedule.
Primary and secondary structural steel, anchor bolts to ridge cap. Butler, Nucor, BlueScope, Varco Pruden, Chief, Robertson-Ceco.
Request CrewIMP wall and roof installation — vacuum lifter operation, crane coordination, joint sealing to commissioning spec. Hyperscale data center experience.
Request CrewStanding seam, R-panel, and exposed fastener systems. Correct fastener patterns, proper lapping, ridge detailing that seals.
Request CrewLiner panels, metal wall panels, insulated wall systems installed plumb and to spec. Full scope or individual task.
Request CrewSingle and double-layer blanket insulation, vapor retarders, and specialty systems for energy code compliance.
Request CrewFlatwork and site concrete crew support. Same vetting standard, different substrate — for when you need production on the slab.
Request CrewIMP installation on a hyperscale data center is not the same as hanging panels on a warehouse. Tighter tolerances. More complex sequencing. Vacuum lifters, crane coordination, and joint sealing to commissioning spec.
Our IMP crews have worked production schedules on hyperscale builds across the country. We know OCIP enrollment, site-specific safety inductions, and how to onboard fast into a GC-controlled site.

Started Alpha Labor on a simple read of the business: the crew and the customer want the same job to go well, and someone has to make the numbers meet the reality. Erector, then PM, then estimator — Matt has lived all three, and that's where his instinct for efficiency comes from.
Twelve years in PEMB, start to finish — started as an erector and worked his way up to running data center deployments with 1,200+ workers onsite. As VP he leads operations company-wide: the field-tested operator behind every Alpha Labor program.
25 years in commercial banking and managing private equity funds — a career spent making money behave and risk stay honest. As CFO, he keeps Alpha Labor's financial house in order so the crews can focus on the steel.
13 years in major PEMB construction. No-nonsense, get-it-done — the operator you want running the show behind the curtain on every Alpha Labor deployment.
Certified Anti-Money Laundering Specialist turned operations leader. PMP certified. Spearheads all office operations and ensures Alpha Labor exceeds its operational goals.
From welder to Senior PM. Knows PEMB and structural steel inside-out — the kind of leader crews follow because he cares about both the work and the people.
In the PEMB industry since the early 1980s with US and Caribbean projects to his name. Florida-licensed GC since 1996; brings decades of land-to-finish field expertise to every Alpha Labor deployment.
Started in the field 7 years ago and earned every rank on sheer work ethic. He's lived the road and the time away from home — so he's the one crews call, around the clock, when they need something handled.
Coordinates crew lodging and travel logistics across every active deployment, and is the bilingual English–Spanish point of contact for field employees. When a crew needs something handled on the road, he handles it.
Coordinates payroll and HR for a workforce that turns over week to week — onboarding new hires, keeping certifications current, and making sure every man's hours are right come payday. First call when a crew member has a question about his check or his paperwork.
Certified welder who grew up on a farm in Fort Myers, Florida, working on trucks, cars, and tractors. Runs all of Alpha Labor's commercial hauling and keeps the fleet repaired across the country — the kind of mechanic who replaces a motor in a parking lot rather than waiting on a shop.
Top-tier technology, field-engineered. Real-time crew tracking, integrated tools workers actually use on site — timesheets, leaderboards, time-off requests, direct messages — and the visibility customers need to trust every deployment we run.
