A major Minneapolis-based contractor, Ryan Cos., is highlighting significant "headwinds" in the data center construction market, citing issues with project schedules and questioning the ongoing direction of the building boom. These challenges point to growing physical constraints like power availability and supply chain bottlenecks for critical equipment.
