Labor Support for the Meta Lebanon, Indiana Data Center
Meta's second Indiana campus is a $10 billion, 1 gigawatt project in a market building its data center labor pool from scratch.
Project facts (publicly reported)
Meta broke ground on its second Indiana data center in Lebanon, roughly 30 miles northwest of Indianapolis — a $10 billion, 1 gigawatt campus expected to support about 4,000 construction jobs at peak, plus around 300 operational positions once it's running.
Why this market matters for labor planning
Indiana's data center industry is new — this kind of project scale didn't exist in this market five years ago. That means the local labor pool is still building up around this specific type of work, which is exactly the scenario where travel-crew capability determines whether a project stays on schedule.
How LaborNOW's model applies here
- Blended local-and-travel crews to reach peak construction headcount without waiting on a local labor market to mature.
- General and skilled labor for construction support — see our general and skilled labor page.
- Construction final-clean and ongoing maintenance cleaning as the campus moves toward operations.
