Live-Line Growth Harlan Electric is expanding energized transmission work capabilities through a live-line certification program and ongoing collaboration with Eversource. This positions the company to pursue high-margin transmission and distribution projects that require energized work, including emergency restoration. Business development should target utility clients with live-line needs and explore co-offering opportunities with MYR Group assets.

Regional Reach With operations focused in the upper Midwest and Northeast and deep experience navigating permitting, ROW, and local labor relations, Harlan reduces project risk and schedule uncertainty in these regions. This makes it attractive to utilities, municipalities, and private developers pursuing regional grid modernization and infrastructure builds. Leverage regional presence to shorten lead times and win permitting-heavy projects.

Proven Quality Recognitions such as the 2023 NECA Project Excellence Award for Overhead Transmission and the 2020 Safety Excellence Award demonstrate reliability, safety, and execution strength. Use these credentials to strengthen proposals for critical infrastructure work and develop concise case studies and references. Highlight awards in early proposal summaries and client conversations.

Grid Modernization End-to-end capabilities across substation, transmission, distribution, power line construction, and telecom infrastructure align with grid modernization, renewable integration, and telecom expansion initiatives. Position Harlan as a one-stop partner for utilities seeking integrated design-build and rapid deployment, and propose bundled services that cover engineering, construction, and maintenance.

Corporate Backbone As a subsidiary of MYR Group with a public parent (Nasdaq: MYRG), Harlan Electric benefits from broader financial resources, shared best practices, and cross-sell opportunities across the group. BD should pursue large-scale opportunities by coordinating with other MYR affiliates to offer turnkey, financing-enabled solutions to utility and industrial clients.
