What the project evidence establishes
Two buildings, two occupancy targets
EdgeCore's April financing announcement covers AS01 and AS02 together. It gives November 2026 and July 2027 initial-occupancy targets respectively, with Dominion supplying power to both.
EdgeCore financing and schedule ↗Published April 21, 2026 · reviewed September 25, 2026Holder's documented scope is AS01
EdgeCore names Holder in its AS01 topping-out post. That evidence does not assign AS02 or every trade package to Holder. The post's relative timestamp is not an exact construction-event date.
EdgeCore AS01 construction update ↗Publication date not stated · reviewed September 25, 2026VA3 is another development
Vantage's VA3 profile describes two dedicated substations supplied through Dominion transmission. Utility involvement does not identify the contractor awarded electrical installation.
Vantage VA3 campus profile ↗Publication date not stated · reviewed September 25, 2026What to investigate next
Our interpretation: Separate building schedules help focus questions about commissioning and handover. The published targets alone do not establish active vacancies or an open staffing contract.
Has AS01's initial occupancy been confirmed, and who holds AS02's construction and specialty-trade packages?

This partial roster records project involvement. Current regional hiring is shown separately above; a company's absence from that list does not establish that it has no vacancies.
