Haskell growth playbook

Diagnosis

Haskell is a 60-year-old Jacksonville AEC firm with 174 open roles that show where it is growing: a new Transmission & Utilities practice, a multi-building data center commissioning program in Texas, water and wastewater delivery across five regions, modular DMI, and a design hub in Mexico City.

The website has not caught up: the Power Delivery page shows no substation or transmission projects, the data center work is two confidential pages, the contact form promises a reply in two business days, and the homepage downloads 57.8 MB.

This playbook publishes proof for the growth markets first, speeds up response and the homepage, then builds guides, local and Spanish pages, and packaged offers for utilities and commissioning.

Growth Score

7/10

Biggest Opportunity

Show buyers proof for the markets Haskell is hiring for, starting with substation and transmission work for utilities and data center commissioning.

Biggest Risk

Burns & McDonnell, Stellar, Gray and DPR compete with deep reference lists in the same markets, and new practices without visible proof can lose at prequalification.

01

Start here

The three moves to make first. Each one is written up in full below.

  1. 1

    Publish the substation and transmission work that utilities will ask about before the new Power Delivery team bids

    List every substation, transmission and protection project the new hires and existing team can cite.

  2. 2

    Haskell is building a Transmission & Utilities practice: a seller-doer Director of Engineering - Power Delivery plus senior transmission line, substation, relay settings, SCADA and protection & controls engineers. The Power Delivery Design page promises substations "from 4 kV to 500 kV" and full-scope transmission design, but its three Featured Projects are a microgrid and two renewable generation plants, and none of Haskell's 231 project pages or 1,053 articles mentions a substation or a transmission line. Utility and co-op buyers prequalify on relevant references, so the page sells a capability it does not show.

    Smallest test

    Publish two anonymized substation project sheets and swap them into Featured Projects.

    Why it works

    Publish five to eight power delivery project sheets from the team's own record (with client approval, or anonymized as the site already does for confidential projects): voltage, scope, delivery model, schedule and outcome. Swap them into Featured Projects, add a "Substations" and a "Transmission" filter to the project gallery, and turn the same sheets into a qualifications PDF the Director and proposal team attach to every utility pursuit. Add a short "how we work with co-ops and municipal utilities" section that links the existing grid articles.

    References are the first screen in utility RFQs. Showing substation and transmission work on the page buyers check gives the new seller-doers something to send on day one and lets the existing grid articles convert readers into conversations.

    Risks and how to handle them

    Smallest test

    Publish one anonymized campus case study.

    Why it works

    Write anonymized case studies that hyperscale and colocation buyers can still use: MW, building count, cooling type, redundancy level (N+1, 2N), schedule and commissioning outcomes. Add a commissioning-specific page that explains the in-house Cx approach with a sample test script and turnover package outline.

    Data center owners choose builders on speed and commissioning proof; numbers persuade even when the client stays confidential.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Confidentiality

      Share ranges, not exact locations.

    Evidence

    • HiringMission-critical hiring: ten open roles in Pecos, Texas, led by a Director of Commissioning - Mission Critical accountable for "campus-wide commissioning strategy, staffing, quality, safety, schedule, startup sequencing, and successful operational turnover" "across multiple buildings", with a Commissioning Manager, Commissioning Technical Leads (mechanical and electrical), quality specialists and trades; and a Project Director - Advanced Tech & Mission Critical in Jacksonville.Source

    Why it works

    Load only the first hero video, show posters for the rest until their slide appears, serve compressed mobile versions, and compress the largest images. Retest in PageSpeed.

    Visitors on site trailers and phones, including recruits, see the page faster, and hosting traffic falls.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Hero looks worse

      Keep the poster frame high quality.

    Evidence

    • Google PageSpeedHomepage: real Chrome visitors pass Core Web Vitals (LCP 2.0s, INP 97 ms at the 75th percentile, and LCP is 20% faster than a year ago).

    Why it works

    Build a page per hub with local projects, leaders, open roles and community involvement, and keep it current with the regional marketing team.

    Local owners and recruits search by city; a page per hub supports both business development and hiring.

    Smallest test

    Pitch one owner.

    Why it works

    Package commissioning as a standalone third-party service for data center owners who use other builders, with a page, a scope menu and references.

    Commissioning demand rises with data center construction, and standalone work introduces Haskell to owners before their next build.

    Risks and how to handle them

    • Conflicts with builder clients

      Agree rules for third-party work.

    Evidence

How Programmable can help

Where an idea in this playbook is something Programmable builds or runs, it's listed here with what we'd do. Everything else is yours to run.

ProgrammableInfo

Turn the research into a list you can act on

These ideas start with finding the right companies. Info finds them and the right person at each, researches every one and drafts the outreach, then asks before it sends.

  • Build this list in Info for idea #8 (opens programmable.info in a new tab)

New accounts: 100,000 free credits with code BETA100K

Find the companies (opens programmable.info in a new tab)
ProgrammableDigital

Show it, don't just describe it

These ideas need something to show: a demo, a video, an animation, graphics or a deck. Digital turns screenshots or the site into all of them, in the company's own brand.

30/60/90 roadmap

What to focus on in each month, and the ideas that carry it.

  1. Days 1 to 306 ideas

    Power delivery and data center proof, homepage weight, faster replies, trust pages and pursuit landing pages.

  2. Days 31 to 6012 ideas

    Water guide, hub pages, Spanish pages, DMI explainer, account plans, insight hubs, accessibility, video, pilots and the Oracle proposal fields; economic development partners and team pages.

  3. Days 61 to 903 ideas

    Commit to the big bets: a utility program, standalone commissioning and an annual capital projects report.

The research behind the plan

3 research areas, each summarised in a few lines. Open any of them for the full detail.

Customers

What customers say

Customers value single point of responsibility through design-build. The most cited problem: schedule pressure.

  • Deep food, beverage and manufacturing expertise
  • Aging infrastructure and regulation
  • In their words: “design-build”

Market

Competitive landscape

4 competitors compared: Burns & McDonnell, Stellar, Gray and DPR.

  • Gap to exploit: Packaged grid modernization for co-ops and municipal utilities
  • Burns & McDonnell: Less food and beverage focus
  • Stellar: Fewer infrastructure markets

Hiring signals

Haskell's 174 open roles point to five growth bets.

  • Director of Engineering - Power Delivery: Growth plans for the Transmission & Utilities practice. Ideas 1, 17.
  • Sr. Substation Designer: Substation design capacity. Idea 1.
  • Director of Commissioning - Mission Critical: Campus-wide commissioning across multiple buildings. Ideas 2, 18.
