 This is JSA TV and JSA podcast, your newsroom for telecom and data center professionals. We are coming at you on location from Miami, Florida at Metro Connect 2020. And I'm here with Mr. Joe Season. Joe is the CEO of Hyland. Joe, welcome to JSA TV. Thank you very much. It's great to be here. You bet. You bet. And so Joe, for our viewers that don't already know, why don't you tell them a little bit about Hyland? Okay. Hyland is a nationwide infrastructure construction company focused on telecommunications infrastructure and electrical infrastructure and smart city infrastructure builds from New York to California. Our core business, Hyland Data Common Electrical has been around for 60 years. About three and a half years ago, we had private equity and make an investment in the business, which allowed us to expand our business from New York to Chicago to Phoenix, California, and the Washington DC metro area. Very good. So, Joe, let's, you know, and sometimes I will go off script right away. So we're talking about the Transcontinental Railroad and you have some involvement there. Why don't you tell our viewers a little bit about that? Yeah. So I came up with this analogy as I was thinking about what we do. I mean, we're not just a construction company. We are participating in one of the largest expansions of infrastructure in history. And to sort of explain it to our folks, I make an analogy to the Transcontinental Railroad, which in order to facilitate the expansion of the economy during the industrial revolution, they had to build out the railroads. And we're doing something very similar is all of the transformational technologies of our time, whether it's 5G wireless, Internet of Things, smart cities, autonomous vehicles require infrastructure. And so I like to say, you know, we're building that infrastructure to power the information age. Outstanding. You're hitting all the buzzwords. These are real things that are happening right now. But Highland is a mix of like four different companies. There's Highland Datacom and Electrical down under construction, which I love, Highland West and Western Utility. Why don't you tell our viewers a little bit about that and more importantly, a milestone anniversary of sorts? Yeah. So I'll start with the second question first. Our Highland Datacom and Electrical division in New York is having its 60th anniversary this year. Congratulations. It's an amazing story started by John DeLeo Sr. 60 years ago in New York City, grew from a very small electrical contractor to the business that it is today, employing hundreds of people with lots of blue chip customers. So we're very happy to be celebrating that 60th anniversary. And we're recently welcoming the other divisions into the portfolio over the last 18 months or so, including down under construction in Northern Virginia, Western Utility in Chicago and the Greater Midwest and Highland West based in Phoenix, but covering Arizona and California. Business is good, Ajo. It's been good. Yeah. We're trying to catch our breath. There's a lot of opportunity out there. If anybody's been watching the news, you can tell there's a lot of excitement and expansion around 5G and everything else. So there's a lot of opportunity out there. So I realize we're in 2019. I'm sorry. What year is it? 2020 now. But 2019 was a big year for you guys. So why don't you tell us a little bit about some of the big milestones they had in 2019? So we bought those businesses I referred to in 2018. So a portion of 2019 was spent integrating those businesses, welcoming them into the Highland fold, establishing a common culture and reporting structure and establishing a shared services platform at the corporate level where we can support our division. So a lot of work was done on that in 2019, as well as several market expansions including into Philadelphia, into Los Angeles. We've done work in Salt Lake City. So we've had several geographic expansions as well in 2019. Outstanding. So 2020 is going to be an even better year for you. I can feel it. But why don't you tell our viewers a little bit about what they might be able to expect from Highland in 2020? Yeah. So from Highland in 2020, you can expect to see continued geographic expansion. We're following our customers, which is the best way to expand your territory. It makes sense. Because when your top customers ask you, hey, can you do work for us here? So we'll see some geographic expansion. You'll see continued integration of the acquisitions. And we're always looking to grow organically and organically. Outstanding. Joe, thanks for being here. We appreciate it. I appreciate the time. Thank you very much. You got it. You got it. And thank you viewers for watching JSA TV. We'll see you soon. And happy networking.
