The model
Ten phases. One partner.
Most job boards flatten data center work into "construction" and "IT". NovatarHQ indexes work the way projects actually run: by delivery phase. A hiring manager can staff against a schedule, and a candidate can see exactly where they fit.
One campus can carry several delivery phases at once. Talent planning has to see the full program, not a single requisition.
