Private equity firm IMB Partners has completed a growth investment in Strategic Land Services, a heavy civil contractor. The transaction supports expansion of electric grid infrastructure in the Southeastern U.S.
Private equity firm IMB Partners announced on July 14, 2026, its completion of a growth investment in Strategic Land Services (SLS). Headquartered in Oakwood, Georgia, SLS specializes in heavy civil contracting and infrastructure services for electric utility projects.
The company, established in 1998, offers services including land development, grading, erosion control, stormwater management, and construction of power lines and substations. SLS has built a reputation for technical solutions, operational reliability, and safety, leading to long-standing relationships with Georgia's major electric utilities.
The investment comes amid a significant surge in electric infrastructure development across the Southeastern U.S. Regional utilities are expanding transmission and substation capacity to meet increased demand driven by population growth, industrial development, and data center construction.
