Alaskan RealitiesBarriers to Project Completion
Unique Construction Problems

• Site costs -- little infrastructure in place
  High cost of Heavy Equipment mobilization and
  repair. High cost of Quality Control --
  Inspections Coordination of very tight
  construction and delivery season
• Long lead time for production  and delivery of
   product - windows, cabinets, etc.
• Limited availabily of barges due to competing
  business  (Fishing industry)
• Costs and scheduling "Connex" storage and
  shipping containers                
• Transportation and upkeep of "core" crew -
  specialty crews Shortage of qualified manpower
  (electricians, etc.)
• (Mitigated with training of local workforce)
