Site Work – Utilities – Industrial
Successful industrial and commercial projects require more than just well-constructed buildings—they depend on expertly planned and executed site work and utility infrastructure. At MPS Engineering & Construction, we provide comprehensive site development services, ensuring that properties are prepared for long-term functionality, compliance, and efficiency.
With extensive experience across the Southeast, we have completed numerous site work projects involving large-scale excavation, grading, stormwater management, utility installation, and infrastructure improvements. Whether a project involves a new industrial facility, an expansion of existing operations, or improvements to transportation networks, our team has the expertise and resources to deliver high-quality site development solutions on time and within budget.
Comprehensive Site Work and Utility Services
Proper site preparation is critical to the success of any industrial or commercial project. Our site work and utility services include major cut and fill operations, earthmoving and land grading to establish proper elevations and drainage, stormwater management and retention ponds, designing and installing retention basins, drainage channels, and underground stormwater systems, water and sewer installation, laying municipal and private water distribution and wastewater infrastructure, power distribution and utility coordination, installing electrical, fiber optic, and gas distribution systems to support industrial facilities, SCDOT easements and roadway improvements, managing transportation infrastructure and road access in compliance with the South Carolina Department of Transportation, and parking lot construction and paving, developing durable, high-traffic parking facilities with proper drainage and accessibility.
Each of these services requires careful planning, technical expertise, and coordination with regulatory agencies. Our team ensures that all site work is completed with precision and in compliance with environmental and safety regulations.
Excavation and Earthwork Expertise
Many projects require large-scale excavation and grading to prepare a site for construction. Our ability to efficiently move large volumes of earth while maintaining site stability and proper drainage gives our clients a competitive advantage.
MPS has access to mining pits and specialized excavation resources that are not available to many contractors, allowing us to provide cost-effective solutions for large-scale earthmoving projects. Whether a project involves a deep excavation for a foundation, backfilling for site stabilization, or large-scale grading for stormwater control, we have the equipment and expertise to get the job done efficiently.
Industrial and Infrastructure Solutions
Industrial and commercial facilities require robust utility infrastructure and site development to support operations. We specialize in preparing sites for manufacturing plants, distribution centers, logistics hubs, power plants, and other large-scale industrial facilities.
Our industrial site development services include heavy-duty foundation preparation, ensuring stable, compacted subgrades for large industrial structures, rail spur and transportation infrastructure, constructing access roads and rail spurs to support logistics operations, environmental mitigation and erosion control, implementing best practices for soil conservation and stormwater compliance, and large-scale utility installations, managing industrial-scale power, water, and wastewater infrastructure to support complex operations.
By working closely with industrial clients, municipal planners, and engineers, we ensure that each project is developed with efficiency, safety, and long-term operational goals in mind.
Engineering Support and Value-Driven Design
As a registered Civil Engineer, our President, L. Kai Yeh, PE, brings expert insight into the design, planning, and execution of site work and utility projects. His experience allows MPS to provide engineering support that goes beyond traditional construction services.
Our team works closely with clients during the planning phase, offering design alternatives that can reduce costs, streamline schedules, and improve overall project efficiency. Whether a project involves challenging soil conditions, strict environmental regulations, or complex infrastructure coordination, we develop customized solutions that balance performance, budget, and sustainability.
We provide site feasibility analysis and pre-construction planning, evaluating site conditions and identifying cost-saving opportunities before construction begins, value engineering and cost-effective solutions, recommending alternative materials, construction methods, and designs to optimize project efficiency, and permitting and compliance assistance, navigating regulatory approvals for stormwater management, environmental permits, and utility easements.
By integrating engineering expertise with hands-on construction experience, we help clients make informed decisions that lead to faster, more efficient, and cost-effective project completion.
