Some examples of this win-win success are listed here.
Remote Sites and Logistics
Alaska poses unique challenges for the construction and environmental remediation industry. The short construction season, harsh weather coupled with remote project locations puts a significant burden on designers and contractors. Suulutaaq believes that planning and logistics are paramount in the successful completion of any project. However, work in Alaska demands extra attention for planning and logistics. Suulutaaq members have not only completed projects accessible by the road system and on military sites in Anchorage, Fairbanks and Delta Junction, but also in many remote locations served only by aircraft or by marine/river barges.
