At Baxter-Kenworthy Electric and Fabrication, we don’t solve growth by simply hiring more people.

The electrical industry is facing a long-term labor shortage. Skilled electricians are retiring faster than they can be replaced, apprenticeship pipelines take years to mature, and project schedules continue to compress.


Waiting for the labor market to improve is not a strategy.


Instead, we’ve built our execution model around intentional prefabrication—shifting repeatable, labor-intensive work from the jobsite into a controlled manufacturing environment.

Fabrication Builds Capacity Without Adding Risk

Hiring adds headcount. Fabrication adds capability.

Reduce Field Hours

Significantly reduce total field labor hours by completing work in controlled conditions.

Lower Skill Dependency

Less reliance on highly specialized on-site skills—installation becomes streamlined.

Improve Safety

Controlled environments mean safer work conditions and more consistent outcomes.

Predictable Results

Deliver predictable installation outcomes with verified, quality-checked assemblies.

Fabrication allows our electricians to focus on installation—not improvisation.

OUR APPROACH

Designed for Fabrication, Not Fabricated as an Afterthought

The difference is intent.


We don’t “see what can be fabricated later.” We plan assemblies and kitting from the start.


Our teams:

Coordinate early with project stakeholders.

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.

Allow controlled variation without chaos.

Verify assemblies before they ever reach the site.

Especially Effective For:

Underground conduit systems

Conduit and equipment racks

In-wall and overhead lighting assemblies

Power distribution assemblies

Customization is not eliminated—it’s managed.

What This Means for Our Customers

More Schedule Certainty

Front-loaded fabrication reduces jobsite variables and dependency on field labor availability.

More Consistent Quality

Assemblies are built once, checked once, and installed right the first time.

Less Labor Risk

Projects are less exposed to workforce volatility and skill shortages.

Faster Installation

Smaller crews complete work efficiently through streamlined field execution.

The Bottom Line

Fabrication is not an add-on at Baxter-Kenworthy.
It is a core part of how we deliver work reliably in a constrained labor market.


We don’t compete by chasing labor.
 We compete by designing smarter, fabricating intentionally, and installing efficiently.
