Why Montana, why now
Montana is one of the busiest data-center states in the country, with 1 sites from companies like Quantica Infrastructure / Big Sky Digital Infrastructure (BSDI). The work is steady, it lasts for years, and there are not enough local workers for it.
The trades needed most here: electricians, carpenters, ironworkers. For electricians, the data centers alone need 0.5x as many new workers as Montana usually adds in a year.
